Jouw rol
As a Senior Equities Analyst with a climate change coverage, you will work in an internationally oriented team of nine investment professionals managing a global impact mandate with a long-term investment horizon. You will mainly focus on bottom-up fundamental, in-depth analysis of publicly traded companies within the climate related sectors such as industrials, technology, construction, railways, chemicals and telecommunication infrastructure, aimed at realizing outperformance and societal impact at the same time. You will actively contribute to managing a highly concentrated portfolio of climate-related companies aimed at realizing long term, above-market returns.
In your role, you will remain in close contact with the management teams of the companies under your coverage and you will be expected to stay up to date with all relevant developments with regards to the companies in your portfolio and benchmark. You will work in the context of a disciplined investment process that begins with bottom-up fundamentals and requires due diligence of industry and company-specific trends, analysis of company financials, modeling, and valuation work. You will then use this research to make specific investment recommendations for the portfolio manager and the investment team.
