Investment Analyst
Melbourne
Why We Back Them
This candidate is a high-calibre investment and strategy analyst operating at the intersection of capital, real assets, and growth platforms. Their background is grounded in investment analysis, feasibility, portfolio performance and transaction support across residential and living-sector style assets.
They bring a rare combination of technical financial capability and commercial judgement — comfortable building complex models, interrogating assumptions, supporting investment decisions, and producing board-level analysis. This is someone who strengthens decision-making quality across acquisitions, developments, and portfolio optimisation.
Importantly, they sit in that highly valuable space between strategy, capital and execution — not just reporting on numbers, but helping shape what gets built, bought or funded.
