About the Role

We are seeking a Portfolio Associate to join the OEGEN Funds Team, reporting to the Senior Portfolio Manager. The role will work across OEGEN’s listed funds, semi-liquid strategies and private funds, supporting investments in renewable infrastructure and liquid investments. You will support the Senior Portfolio Manager across the full fund-management cycle, including portfolio analysis, valuations, cash-flow forecasting, debt, FX, hedging, governance and investor reporting. You will also have a particular role in analysing allocations and underlying fund information across semi-liquid and liquid strategies, reviewing valuations and asset performance across private market investments, and supporting the Finance team with monthly NAV processes. The role would suit someone with a strong finance, accounting or investment background who is analytical, organised and comfortable working across recurring processes and more judgement-led portfolio analysis. It offers the opportunity to develop broad fund-management experience across a varied set of OEGEN portfolios.

Responsibilities

  • Support the Senior Portfolio Manager with the day-to-day management of assigned portfolios, including monitoring investments, asset performance, fund KPIs, distributions, commitments, liquidity and investor returns.
  • Work with Asset Management, Investment, Finance and other teams to understand issues and ensure that actions are followed through.
  • Support monthly, quarterly and annual valuation processes, including updating and reviewing DCF, investment and fund models, analysing assumptions, preparing valuation bridges and sensitivities, and challenging outputs from internal teams, external valuers and underlying managers.
  • Prepare clear analysis for internal and external stakeholders.
  • Support cash-flow forecasting and analysis across the portfolios, including distributions, capital calls, liquidity, recycling and commitments.
  • Help monitor debt structures, refinancing activity, managing covenants, hedging and other financial arrangements relevant to the funds, working closely with Finance and Investment teams.
  • Support analysis of portfolio construction, asset allocation and investment exposures, including gathering and assessing information from underlying funds and managers.
  • Help draw together performance and portfolio information from semi-liquid and liquid investments and turning it into useful fund-level analysis and reporting.
  • Lead or coordinate inputs into high-quality investor reports, factsheets, customer board materials, investor meetings and due diligence responses.
  • Help explain asset and portfolio performance, allocation, valuation movements, distributions, risks and outlook clearly and accurately for investors across the different fund types.
  • Work with the Finance team to support monthly NAV processes for underlying private funds, including checking underlying information, reconciling movements and maintaining clear supporting evidence.
  • Help oversee and report on asset performance, review valuation outputs and identify questions or inconsistencies for escalation.
  • Support the Senior Portfolio Manager in ensuring that funds are governed correctly and that information provided to Boards, customer boards, auditors and other governance forums is accurate.
  • Monitor risks including underperformance, valuation movements, liquidity, debt covenants, mandate constraints and material data gaps, escalating issues promptly.
  • Maintain accurate fund-level information for NAV, AUM, returns, distributions, commitments and track record, and look for practical improvements to reporting, controls, data collection and automation.
  • Help ensure that processes are documented, deadlines are managed and outputs are consistent and auditable.

Requirements

  • At least three years of relevant experience in fund management, fund accounting, financial reporting, audit, transaction services, infrastructure, renewable energy, valuations, investment analysis or a comparable analytical role.
  • A strong finance or accounting background.
  • Good understanding of fund-management processes, including NAV, valuations, AUM, investor reporting, cash-flow forecasting, distributions, audit and governance.
  • Strong Excel and financial-modelling skills, including the ability to review models, analyse assumptions, reconcile outputs and perform scenario and sensitivity analysis.
  • Experience of analysing investment, fund or asset performance and creating high-quality investor or management information.
