About this Job

Position Type: Full Time Job, Temporary Duration

Employer: Cooke & Bieler, L.P.

Title: Associate Analyst

Description:

Cooke & Bieler is an established, Philadelphia-based investment management firm with approximately $11 billion in assets under management. Founded in 1949, we are an independent, domestic equities manager focused on value investing and committed to bottom-up, fundamental research. A long-term investment horizon and attention to business quality underpin our differentiated perspective. The firm manages portfolios for a broad base of institutional clients – both domestic and international – and has a demonstrated track record of performance.

We are seeking highly qualified candidates for a temporary full-time Associate position – the position is guaranteed until summer 2026, with the potential to extend longer depending on performance and firm needs. This position is part of a rotational program in Marketing, Compliance, and Communications, and will focus on the Communications rotation, while also providing exposure to all the key functions of a buy-side investment manager. Types of recurring tasks include completing RFPs and DDQs (requests for proposals and due diligence questionnaires) for existing and potential mandates, writing responses to client and consultant requests, producing quarterly marketing materials, filling out databases to ensure consultants and prospects can find the firms’ strategies when considering allocations, and using software such as FactSet, Bloomberg, and APX to run and analyze data. The role involves working with key professionals and other full-time Associates on rotational tasks and other various projects as needed by the partners and other members of the firm. Candidates will be expected to assume a high degree of responsibility and show initiative early on.

Cooke & Bieler is committed to promoting diversity in the workplace. We believe that having a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives is essential to our intellectually rigorous environment and our unique culture. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis; candidates are strongly encouraged to apply ahead of the deadline.
