Job Description

Program Overview

The FP&A to Asset Management (AM) Development Program is a two-year rotational and training initiative designed to cultivate high-potential early-career talent into fully capable Asset Management Associates. The program is built to bridge the gap between corporate finance and real estate investment management by combining rigorous FP&A training with targeted exposure to asset-level decision-making, investment analysis, and portfolio strategy.

Participants begin in FP&A roles to develop a strong financial and operational foundation, while concurrently undergoing on-the-job training and mentorship aligned with the core competencies required of an AM Associate. Upon successful completion, participants fully transition into the Asset Management team, where they will take on full Associate responsibilities and continue to grow within the platform.
