You will work with institutional clients (including corporate and public retirement plans, endowments and foundations, healthcare systems, taxable trusts, insurance assets, for example) and will also work closely with Callan's specialty research groups to provide asset allocation, implementation advice, manager research, and performance monitoring services to our clients.

Our goal is to identify a candidate with consulting experience and investment knowledge, intellectual curiosity, a genuine interest in capital markets, and a true appreciation for the value of building strong, trusted relationships with clients and colleagues.
