Role Overview

As an expert Research Analyst at G-20, you will be responsible for producing high-conviction, actionable investment research across US equities, with a primary focus on Energy, the "Magnificent 7" mega-cap technology names, and Semiconductors. You will work closely with portfolio managers and traders to translate deep fundamental and thematic research into differentiated investment ideas, supporting G-20's decision-making across its trading and investment strategies.

• Develop and maintain detailed earnings models, valuation frameworks, and scenario analyses to support investment and trading decisions.
• Monitor sector-specific catalysts, including earnings releases, capex cycles, supply/demand dynamics, regulatory developments, and technological trends (e.g. AI infrastructure buildout, chip supply chains, energy transition themes, OPEC+ policy).
• Generate timely, well-argued investment theses and actionable trade ideas, clearly articulating risk/reward and key catalysts.
• Build and maintain relationships with company management teams, sell-side analysts, and industry contacts to enhance information edge.

• Present research findings clearly and concisely through written notes and verbal briefings, ensuring key messages are actionable for trading decisions.
• Continuously refine coverage frameworks, data sources, and analytical tools to improve research quality and efficiency.

• Degree in Finance, Economics, Engineering, or a related field from a top-tier university; CFA or equivalent professional qualification is a plus.
• Minimum 5+ years of equity research experience (sell-side or buy-side), with demonstrated coverage of Energy, large-cap Technology, and/or Semiconductor sectors.
• Strong financial modeling, valuation, and analytical skills, with a track record of generating differentiated, high-conviction investment ideas.
• Deep understanding of the drivers specific to each coverage area: commodity price dynamics and energy markets, mega-cap tech competitive positioning and AI-driven growth narratives, and semiconductor cycle/supply chain dynamics.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex analysis into clear, actionable investment views.
• Proven ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced trading environment, with strong attention to detail and intellectual curiosity.
• Self-motivated, proactive, and comfortable operating with a high degree of autonomy while collaborating effectively with traders and portfolio managers.
