Job Description

When you work at Chatham, we empower you — offering professional development opportunities to help you grow in your career, no matter if you've been here for five months or 15 years. Chatham has worked hard to create a distinct work environment that values people, teamwork, integrity, and client service. You will have immediate opportunities to partner with talented subject matter experts, work on complex projects, and contribute to the value Chatham delivers every day. Chatham Financial is a global financial advisory and technology firm specializing in debt and derivatives solutions. We partner with leading real estate, private equity, infrastructure, and corporate clients to help them manage financial risk and make more informed capital markets decisions. With a strong focus on client service, technical excellence, and long-term partnerships, Chatham combines deep expertise with a collaborative, people-centered culture.

Launch Your Career as a Future Expert

At Chatham, an analyst role is more than a first job — it’s the start of a career built on expertise, trust, and impact. From day one, you’ll work with senior decision-makers in real estate, private equity, infrastructure, and corporate finance. You’ll help bring clarity to complexity and deliver insights that drive action; interacting directly with senior decision-makers. You’ll join a client advisory team and begin building deep subject matter expertise in areas such as derivatives, debt management, and valuation. This immersive experience accelerates your learning, sharpens your judgment, and helps you make meaningful contributions early in your career.

Why This Role Matters

Great advisors don’t just understand markets — they understand people. You’ll learn how to think like your clients, ask the right questions, and offer advice that’s both technically sound and strategically tailored. Whether you’re advising a global real estate investment manager or a corporate treasurer navigating interest rate risk, your ability to deliver value depends on your ability to see the world through their eyes. With support from mentors and peers, you’ll be challenged to build the insight and confidence needed to become a trusted partner.

What You’ll Experience

While an Analyst’s specific responsibilities will vary by team, the highlights below reflect the core experiences and types of work you can expect to be exposed to through Chatham’s Analyst Program.

Early Exposure to High-Impact Work

Analysts support real client engagements from the start — helping to structure and execute derivative trades, model complex financing structures, or analyze client exposures across interest rates, FX, and commodities. You’ll support strategic decision-making through activities like valuations, market research, and data management — all while contributing to engagements with some of the most prominent names in global finance. You’ll gain a front-row seat to real financial decision-making.

Mentorship That Builds Mastery

You’ll learn from experienced professionals through mentorship, team-based learning, and structured feedback. In addition to developing technical and strategic skills, you’ll complete six firmwide courses led by senior leaders, giving you both deep expertise and a broad business perspective — a unique foundation for becoming a trusted, impactful advisor.

A Platform for Long-Term Growth

As you develop expertise and judgment, you’ll take on more responsibility, manage client relationships, and contribute to thought leadership. The skills you gain here are a foundation for long-term success, at Chatham or beyond.

Shaping the Future of Finance

You’ll have opportunities to work with the technologies that power our solutions. Whether through hands‑on rotations, cross‑functional learning, or direct exposure to product development, you’ll gain a front‑row seat to how tech and data are reshaping financial services.

Who Thrives Here

We look for early‑career professionals who are:

• Curious – You dig deep to understand the “why” behind the work.


• Analytical – You embrace complexity and enjoy solving tough problems.


• Service‑Oriented – You take pride in being helpful and reliable.


• Collaborative – You value diverse perspectives and team‑driven outcomes.


• Technically Capable – Proficient in Excel and data analysis; Python or SQL is a plus.

Qualifications

Must be currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program with an expected graduation date between December 2026 and June 2027.
