Equity L/S Portfolio Manager -Utilities
Portfolio Manager - Utilities Equity L/S | $3bn+ Hedge Fund | NYC or Remote
We are partnered with a $3bn+ hedge fund-a well-established name in the industry, backed by a larger platform with a robust balance sheet-to identify a Portfolio Manager to launch and lead Utilities Equity Long/Short coverage within a newly formed discretionary business unit.
🧠 The Opportunity:
- Greenfield Build: This is a new coverage area for the fund-no legacy book, no internal competition. You'll have full autonomy to shape the strategy and build your vision from the ground up.
- Discretionary Expansion: Join a newly launched discretionary arm within a historically systematic-driven platform, offering the best of both worlds-entrepreneurial freedom with institutional support.
- Strong Infrastructure: Benefit from a top-tier operational backbone, risk management, and capital markets support, all backed by a larger, well-capitalized parent fund.
🔍 What We're Looking For:
- Proven track record managing a Utilities-focused equity L/S book (or adjacent sectors with a clear transition plan).
- Live track PnL of $5mm+ over a 3 year period.
- Strong fundamental research process and risk management discipline.
- Ability to operate independently and scale a strategy within a collaborative, high-performance environment.
🌍 Location:
- New York City preferred, but remote flexibility is available for the right candidate.
