Position Overview:

Gryphon Wealth oversees $1.8 billion in assets. The majority of those assets are managed by a small team that prioritizes independence of thought and long-term thinking. The investment analyst is integral and works closely with the lead portfolio manager.

The investment analyst role at Gryphon Wealth is for people that enjoy solving puzzles and spending their days seeking the true nature of things, whilst the rest of the world follows the herd and concerns themselves with what everyone else is doing.

It requires a person that can unemotionally work in solitude for long stretches, has excellent analytical and critical thinking skills, is a Microsoft Excel expert that loves spending time analyzing data, structure, and improving processes.

The investment analyst at Gryphon Wealth should be genuinely curious and enjoy learning new things. While the role does require some team interaction and collaboration, it is not for people that derive their energy from social interaction. Much of the investment analyst’s day will be spent reading and working on spreadsheets in solitude.

This role is for a no-nonsense intellectual that is structured, has exceptional organizational skills, and will follow up and follow through. They must be patient and persistent enough to see a challenge through, while also able to work efficiently.
