The posting

Overview The Investment Office is responsible for the Library's $2.0 billion endowment investment program. Though the Library receives substantial funding from the City of New York as an independent nonprofit entity, the endowment's spending provides crucial ongoing support for the Library's annual operating budget. The endowment portfolio is invested through external managers and is currently allocated across various asset classes and strategies, including domestic and international equities, marketable alternatives, private capital, real assets, and fixed income.

Reporting to the Chief Investment Officer, the Investment Office Coordinator provides the administrative and operational foundation for a lean, flat investment team. The Coordinator owns Investment Committee and general meeting coordination, complex domestic and international travel logistics, expense and procurement processing, document management, and day-to-day office operations, and is often the first point of contact for external guests and investment managers visiting the office.

  • Independently manage the full travel and expense lifecycle, from research and booking through reconciliation
  • Take ownership of meeting planning, materials assembly, and post-meeting documentation, including Investment Committee minutes

  • Office operations: Order and maintain supplies, office equipment, and technology, coordinating with internal service teams as needed.
