Full-Time Analyst (Investment Focused)

erooney@choate.com – Posted by erooney@choate.com Boston, Massachusetts, United States

Job Description

Company Overview:

Choate Investment Advisors (ChoateIA) is a registered investment advisor providing investment management advice to our clients and the trustees of our client families.  ChoateIA seeks to deliver sustainable and attractive long-term investment results. We currently advise on $5.7 billion (as of January 2021) for our client families, and help design wealth strategies for billions more. 

In an environment where our competitors increasingly look, act and think alike, ChoateIA is also built differently. ChoateIA is affiliated with Choate, Hall & Stewart, LLP, a law firm with an internationally recognized wealth management practice.  ChoateIA’s investment expertise, working in collaboration with the law firm’s wealth management services, allows our group to deliver a fully-integrated family office for generations of families. ChoateIA balances risk and reward through sophisticated asset allocation modeling, selecting what we believe to be best-in-class investment vehicles and seeking to maximize long-term after-tax returns across a broad range of diversified asset classes. Our open architecture model provides access to best‐in‐class asset managers and securities.  Our independent analysis allows us to be objective and to provide clients with unbiased evaluation and advice. The group brings the same approach to our clients’ existing and illiquid assets.
