Investment Strategy Associate - Private Markets in London Area

Job description

Miryco Consultants are working with a top tier pension fund to bolster their investment strategy function. This role offers the chance to contribute to the design and delivery of portfolio strategy across a diverse private markets platform, covering asset allocation, thematic research, and long-term capital planning.

You’ll be part of a collaborative team shaping how capital is allocated across private markets, develop forward-looking portfolio strategies, and respond to structural trends influencing global investment. The role combines analytical rigour with creative problem-solving and will give you the opportunity to develop practical tools that support decision-making in areas where established industry standards are often limited.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the development of long-term portfolio allocation frameworks, including analysis and presentations for senior investment committees.
• Build and enhance portfolio management tools to monitor exposures, risk sensitivities, forward planning, and performance drivers.
• Provide quantitative and qualitative input into thematic research projects (e.g., sustainability, demographic shifts, digital transformation).
• Contribute to scenario analysis and cashflow modelling to assess portfolio resilience under different macroeconomic environments.
• Maintain and evolve internal strategy infrastructure and ensure data integrity across tools and reporting.
• Prepare materials for senior stakeholders, including investment reviews and strategy updates.
• Collaborate with colleagues across investment, performance, and risk teams to ensure alignment of private markets strategy with broader investment objectives.
• Act as an ambassador for the strategy team, supporting a positive, open, and collaborative culture.

Experience:

• Degree in economics, finance, or a related subject (MSc preferred but not essential).
• Previous experience in strategy, research, or portfolio analysis roles (experience within private markets, pensions, or insurance beneficial but not essential).
• Strong analytical toolkit – advanced Excel skills are essential; knowledge of Python, VBA, Bloomberg or other market data platforms an advantage.
• Clear and structured communication skills, with the ability to present complex ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Highly organised, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and projects simultaneously.
• Professional qualifications (e.g., CFA) or project management experience a plus.
