Senior Investment Associate - Family Office

We are working with one of the UAE's longest-established single-family offices to appoint a Senior Investment Associate for its investment team - a broad, multi-asset mandate spanning listed markets, private equity, real assets and more.

The opportunity

• More than six decades of heritage within one of the Emirates' founding business groups
• Conservatively managed, with low leverage, strong liquidity and a capital-preservation philosophy
• Differentiated, often proprietary deal flow through deep government and institutional relationships
• A lean, senior team offering direct proximity to decision-makers

The role

Supporting the investment team in analysing, monitoring and managing a diversified portfolio across asset classes, the role combines investment analysis, portfolio oversight and operational due diligence, with real input into manager selection, allocation and governance.

• Run due diligence and build models across public markets, private equity, venture, hedge funds, credit and real assets
• Prepare investment memos, committee materials, quarterly reports and portfolio dashboards
• Monitor existing positions and engage with fund managers and company leadership
• Support fund operations, legal and compliance, and external manager relationships

Candidate profile

• Three to five years in investment management, private equity, investment banking, consulting, or a family office or endowment
• Degree in Finance, Economics or Accounting;
• CFA, CAIA or CA an advantage
• Strong financial modelling, including LBO, and real estate investment exposure

• Discreet, detail-oriented and effective within a small, high-performing team
