Callan is seeking a new team member to join our West Coast Fund Sponsor Consulting Group in either our San Francisco, CA headquarters or Portland, OR regional office.

As an investment consultant on our team, you will work directly with institutional asset owners on either a discretionary or non-discretionary basis; and serve as a trusted adviser, manage client relationships, conduct investment research and strategic investment projects, and develop new business.

You will work with institutional clients (including corporate and public retirement plans, endowments and foundations, taxable trusts, insurance assets, for example) and will also work closely with Callan's specialty research groups to provide asset allocation, implementation advice, manager research, and performance monitoring services to our clients.
