Investment Consultant

Callan LLC – Denver

About the Position

As an investment consultant on Callan’s Denver consulting team, you’ll work directly with institutional plan sponsors and asset owners to help them solve complex problems. You’ll manage client relationships, as well as conduct investment research and strategic investment projects. You’ll also work closely with Callan’s specialty research groups to provide asset allocation, implementation advice, manager research, and monitoring services to institutional investors. Our goal is to identify a candidate with deep investment knowledge, intellectual curiosity, an insatiable interest in capital markets, and a true appreciation for the value of building strong relationships with clients.

Please note: Our day-to-day environment is changing rapidly due to COVID-19, and Callan is committed to prioritizing your safety. Our ideal candidate will be able to adapt to these changes, which means initially working remotely, moving to a hybrid work schedule, and potentially returning to the office full time.*

What’s Unique about This Role?

Callan believes that our organization and culture are made stronger through diverse perspectives and experiences. In collaboration with diverse teams throughout the company, you’ll work with some of the highest quality and most complex clients to help them achieve their investment goals.
