Portfolio Data Analyst - Private Residential Real Estate Credit

Position Overview:

The Private Residential Real Estate Credit Strategies group is seeking a Portfolio Data Analyst to support its long-standing and growing $18+ billion-dollar private residential real estate debt business at Neuberger Berman.

This position presents a unique opportunity to immediately contribute to investment objectives in a team-oriented, fast-paced, and highly dynamic environment—primarily focusing on (1) data analysis solutions for the PM team and clients, (2) support of our statistical residential real estate debt models, and (3) development of our broader technology platform, directly building tools and processes to support all investment activities. This role will require direct interaction with senior internal management, as well as external clients, so the ability to understand investment objectives and client needs–and then effectively communicate solutions to the relevant stakeholders—is a must. You will be in our Chicago office working alongside an extensive range of experienced fixed income senior investors. You’ll have the opportunity to collaborate and learn from team members in a dynamic and collegial environment.

• Query large sets of data and aggregate performance attribution, trading analysis and risk measurement

• Collaborate with senior analysts to develop financial and statistical models across a variety of asset classes in the public and private mortgage loan sector

• Perform in-depth industry analysis and prepare materials for presentation to senior analysts and portfolio managers

Experience & Skills Qualifications:

• 3 to 5 years’ experience in the financial industry, with preference for exposure to fields providing exposure to residential real estate credit analysis or broader private asset-backed finance

  • Candidates with less experience can be considered; however, they must be able to evidence a very strong financial background to supplement their programming and data analysis skills, in particular a focus on fixed income and/or residential real estate credit

• Superb academic credentials in Computer Science, Data Science, Finance, Mathematics, Economics, Engineering or related field

• Programming experience (Python, C#, Java, etc.) is required

• SQL experience is required

• Strong foundation in Excel, including VBA, to manage and analyze data sets

• Experience using statistical packages (e.g. R, MATLAB, etc.) a plus

• Current CFA charterholder or CFA candidate a plus

• Highly motivated with a passion for investing, particularly in the idea generation process
