About the Role

We are seeking an experienced equity investor to be a key member of our Technology team within Global Industry Research (GIR) with responsibility for conducting research and making investment recommendations within the global software sector, including front and back office applications, as well as analytics. With over $147B invested in technology, across over 50 Portfolio Managers, this represents a flagship franchise for Wellington. Software is a significant coverage universe, representing 28% of our total technology assets owned. The broad technology team includes over 20 colleagues across public and private markets.

Our Global Industry Analysts (GIA’s) are the firm’s subject matter experts for their respective sectors. Their job is to generate superior investment returns through fundamental company, sector and industry research and analysis. GIA’s set their own research agendas which are core to their individual philosophy and process. They are expected to be thought leaders in their respective sectors. Our most successful GIA’s demonstrate a consistent ability to generate differentiated investment insights and effectively guide a broad range of diversified PMs into what they view as the most compelling and differentiated investment ideas across their opportunity set. Our GIA team also serves as Portfolio Managers. They have the privilege of managing significant client assets across multiple concentrated alpha sleeves as part of our $150 billion research portfolios suite of products in addition to other client solutions.

Our GIA's impact extends far beyond the research they are doing and the assets they are managing. As a subject matter expert, they have the ability to influence a broader range of portfolio managers that manage across a range of investment styles, regions, time horizons, including benchmark-relative, total return and long/short investment strategies. Our investment culture thrives with rich, rigorous and respectful debate of insights, assumptions and thesis across multiple independent perspectives, often with unique client objectives and individual portfolio team processes. Our GIAs are at the core of this debate - igniting and contributing to the debate with the common goals of generating superior investment returns for our clients.
