DATA ANALYSTS
The Company
Solovis is a revolutionary new SaaS platform offering a multi-asset class portfolio management and reporting solution for foundations, endowments, pensions, OCIOs, and family offices. Our firm is on a mission to set a new industry standard for performance, exposure, and portfolio analysis. The key to that success is to continue disrupting the industry with transformational technology designed specifically for limited partners. Since our co-founders started the company in 2013, Solovis has grown from a two-man operation to more than 40 employees with offices in Charlottesville, VA and Dallas, TX. And we’re not done growing yet. We expect to add at least 20 more new employees this year. At Solovis, we recognize our employees by personally investing in them and providing a rewarding corporate culture centered around growth, training, and an opportunity to shape the future of our product.
The Position
We’re looking for several Data Analysts to help fill out our team in both our Charlottesville and Dallas locations. Data Analysts make up a critical component of our client implementation team, as Solovis clients need good historical data in order to maximize the power of the Solovis platform. Our Data Analysts embrace the challenge of analyzing, interpreting, transforming and loading large data-sets. They are responsible for complex data analysis and problem solving, project organization and documentation, and client support and training. Additional duties include:
- Managing multiple projects, responsibilities and competing priorities.
- Creating and maintaining comprehensive project documentation.
- Participating in weekly client meetings.
- Presenting data findings and working with other members of the Implementation team to identify and implement strategies that will address tactical and strategic client goals.
- Analyzing and communicating client’s business and reporting requirements.
- Assisting with client reporting and dashboard creation.
You’ll start by going through a “boot camp” where you’ll learn about our software and the investment industry. Then you’ll spend your days working in spreadsheets; extracting, segmenting, and interpreting financial data. You need to be the kind of person who takes pride in receiving a large mass of messy data and producing a neat, accurate portfolio model in our system.
