Following this, PSP Investments has incorporated CGF Investment Management (CGFIM) for that purpose. CGFIM is providing the full suite of investment management services to CGF covering the entire investment process pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (IMA).

• Participate in key due diligence activities conducted on target companies, including coordination and review of the work performed by third-party advisors (commercial, environmental, technical, legal, financing, accounting, tax, environmental, etc.)
• Assist deal teams in the determination of material ESG factors and calculation of impact metrics, including avoided emissions and economic benefits associated with transactions
• Assist with monitoring portfolio investments and preparing ongoing performance reporting
• Build knowledge of key sectors relevant to the Canada Growth Fund and participate in industry conferences, meetings, and networking activities

Note: The position requires travel within Canada and occasionally internationally.

What You’ll Need

• Bachelor’s degree in finance, Accounting, Economics, Engineering, Business Administration, or a related field
• CFA, CPA, CBV, or MBA is considered an asset
• Two (2) to three (3) years of relevant financial analysis, accounting, modelling, valuation and/or transactional experience in investment banking, consulting, valuation, corporate development, project finance, or investment management
