The Junior Investment Analyst Program is a 2-year rotational program, which seeks to offer recent college graduates four 6-month rotations through the specific areas or divisions of Upshot’s private equity real estate platform, such as asset management, investor relations and capital raising, acquisitions, and real estate development. During these rotations, the Analyst will have the opportunity to expand their analytical, valuation and presentation skills while working closely with real estate and finance professionals.
