About the role
Greenmantle is looking to hire a full-time Analyst who will work across Greenmantle’s regional teams, and with Greenmantle’s commodities and macroeconomics teams, to quantitatively and qualitatively analyze global macroeconomic trends and commodity markets. The analyst will support Greenmantle’s different research teams that cover individual countries and markets across Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. The ideal candidate will have strong data analysis skills and a keen interest in macroeconomics and history.
Candidates should have a degree in a STEM field (including economics) or a demonstrated interest in quantitative analysis.

Recent college graduates, as well as candidates with 0-3 years of work experience, are encouraged to apply.
We do not expect candidates to have a full mastery of macroeconomic or geopolitical topics. We are looking for someone quantitatively minded who is eager to apply and develop their skills in the context of our firm’s research. This role is fundamentally research-oriented. We are looking for candidates with a desire to learn.
