Develop high-quality pitch books, franchise presentations, and best-practice materials that articulate the breadth and value of Citi Research to internal and external audiences.
Coordinate cross-sector and thematic research initiatives, bringing differentiated investment ideas to market through structured, well-managed delivery.
Manage franchise communications including research podcasts, marketing campaigns, and cross-department publication efforts to maximise audience engagement.
Monitor market developments, investor trends and client feedback to identify opportunities for content enhancement, innovation and franchise growth.
Evaluate and support the adoption of new technologies, including AI-enabled tools, to improve research workflows, content delivery, and client engagement.
Contribute to research commercialisation, distribution and client engagement initiatives designed to broaden franchise reach and increase business impact.
Support senior Research management on strategic projects and broader business priorities.

Required Qualifications & Skills

Experience working within financial services in a role such as Equity Research, Research Product Management, Institutional Sales, Equity Strategy, or a related Markets function.
Solid grasp of equity markets and key macro themes, with the ability to translate market knowledge into commercially relevant insight.
Strong fundamental analytical skills, including experience analysing companies, sectors, markets or investment themes.
Track record of analysing business performance, client engagement metrics, and market trends to generate clear, actionable conclusions.
Demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent projects and coordinate across stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.
Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills, with the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly to diverse audiences.
Analytical capability that combines quantitative rigour with sound commercial judgement.
Collaborative working style with the ability to build effective relationships across functions and seniority levels.
