What is a Research Analyst at Marquette Associates?
A Research Analyst at Marquette Associates serves as a cornerstone of the firm's investment consulting practice. Founded in 1986, Marquette Associates operates under a strict fiduciary mandate, meaning client interests and objectives guide every single recommendation. In this role, you are responsible for conducting rigorous manager due diligence, market research, and quantitative analysis to identify top-tier investment opportunities. Whether focusing on Public Equities or Private Credit, your work directly empowers institutional consultants and clients to make highly informed, strategic asset allocation decisions.
The impact of this position is substantial. You are not simply running numbers; you are shaping the investment recommendations that safeguard and grow the capital of pensions, endowments, foundations, and healthcare systems. You will regularly interface with senior professionals at asset management firms, evaluate complex fund structures, and author high-visibility research materials such as white papers, newsletters, and the firm's signature "charts of the week."
This role is highly collaborative yet demands a high degree of independence. You will participate actively in weekly Alternative Investment Manager Committee meetings, represent the firm at industry conferences, and serve as a primary subject-matter resource for client-facing consultants. It is a intellectually stimulating environment where analytical depth, proactive critical thinking, and a commitment to exceptional client service are key to driving the firm's continued success.
