Job Description

Investment Analyst

Evoke Advisors, a division of MAI Capital, is seeking an Investment Analyst with excellent quantitative, analytical, and interpersonal skills to join our team of Forbes- and Barron's-recognized Advisors. This is a financial, markets-focused role for someone who thrives on portfolio analysis, financial modeling, and translating data into actionable insights for Ultra High Net Worth (UHNW) individuals and families. As a member of the advisory team, you will support Advisors in portfolio construction and analysis, performance reporting, and the execution of client requests, all delivered to a standard of excellence. The ideal candidate thinks critically, learns quickly, and works with precision in a fast-paced environment.

This position is based in the Century City office and requires five days per week in office.

Major Duties and Responsibilities

• Builds and maintains financial models and conducts portfolio analysis across a range of asset classes and account structures
• Reviews current client allocations and drafts recommendations for Advisor review, keeping portfolios aligned with client objectives, risk tolerance, and mandates
• Partners with Advisors and the client services team on asset allocation design and portfolio maintenance
• Prepares client meeting materials, performance reporting, decks, and quantitative analyses to a standard of excellence
• Prepares and maintains the underlying data supporting client performance reports
• Builds fundamentals in the first year — financial modeling, data, deck creation, and learning how we invest and advise
• Progresses toward an appropriate credential (see Credential Path below)

Experience / Credentials

• Bachelor's degree in finance, economics, accounting, mathematics, or a related quantitative field
• Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel (modeling, functions, data analysis); strong PowerPoint and Word skills
• Interest in markets, investing, and wealth advisory generally. This role is a broad introduction to advising Ultra High Net Worth clients rather than a securities-research seat

Credential Path

Year one focuses on fundamentals. In the second and third years, Analysts begin working toward a credential aligned with their intended direction — the CFA for those moving toward research, or the CFP for those moving toward advising. Some designations carry work-experience requirements, so timing is planned individually.

Skills and Qualifications

• Strong quantitative and analytical skills
• Strong business writing and verbal communication skills
• Exceptional attention to detail and a high standard of accuracy
• Ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment
• Intellectual curiosity and an all-in approach to learning
• Maintains strict confidentiality and discretion when handling sensitive client information
