As a Real Assets Consultant at Callan, a leading independent investment consulting firm, you will have an opportunity to support some of the largest, most sophisticated institutional investors in the U.S., including pension and defined contribution plans, endowments, foundations, insurance companies, and healthcare organizations.

Our goal is to identify a candidate with a genuine interest in real assets investments, data analysis, and reporting, has investment knowledge, intellectual curiosity, strong project and time management skills, and a true appreciation for the value of building strong, trusted relationships with clients and fellow Callan colleagues.
