As Associate Portfolio Manager, you will play a pivotal role in managing a global infrastructure mandate, focusing on high-quality businesses with durable competitive advantages. This is a high-impact opportunity to join a lean, high-calibre investment team. You will be responsible for bottom-up fundamental research, global equity valuation, and thematic analysis to identify high-quality businesses that fit the firm’s investment philosophy. In this hands-on role, you will be deeply involved in representing the firm’s investment thesis to advisors and institutional stakeholders and growing the AUM of the mandate.

This is a rare chance to take a visible seat at a growing firm where you aren't just a cog in a machine, you are a key contributor to the investment process. Beyond a competitive base salary and a performance-driven bonus structure, you will join a culture that rewards autonomy, meritocracy, and entrepreneurial spirit. The position is based in Toronto and team members are generally in the office 5 days per week.

You will benefit from a low bureaucracy, high-transparency setting where the focus is solely on delivering excellence.

If you are a disciplined investor looking to move away from "benchmark-hugging" and toward a high-conviction, focused growth environment, we want to hear from you.
