Weiss Asset Management (WAM), a Boston-based asset manager, is seeking a dedicated and highly organized individual to join our expanding Office Management Team. This role will be a key member of the OM team and will focus on providing personal, administrative, and strategic support to one of WAM’s Managing Directors. The ideal candidate will possess strong teamwork, organizational, and prioritization skills, with the ability to efficiently manage multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Responsibilities:

  • Greet clients and visitors by providing front-office hospitality services and answering all incoming company requests.

  • Coordinate and manage the Managing Director’s personal and professional appointments, meetings, and calls, ensuring efficient scheduling and smooth execution.

  • Manage receipts, handle credit card inquiries, and log meetings in internal systems.

  • Book travel, restaurant reservations, and other events.

  • Support the overall investment strategy by identifying and scheduling meetings with brokers and external contacts, taking thorough notes during discussions, and conducting occasional data collection.

About the Company:

For over 30 years, Weiss Asset Management has developed proprietary value-based investment strategies designed to deliver high risk-adjusted returns to our investors, who include charitable foundations, pension plans, endowments, hospitals, government entities and private investors. We manage approximately $3.3 billion across hedge funds and institutional accounts. We work collaboratively to solve problems, and to identify undervalued assets through deep fundamental research, statistical analysis and an analytically rigorous approach to decision making. Above all else, we value integrity, uncompromising rationality, creativity and entrepreneurship, and continuous learning and improvement.

Our team of around 100 individuals is the engine of our success and we welcome truly exceptional candidates from all backgrounds.

WAM is a fit for you if:

  • You enjoy a collaborative environment, where decisions are made in diverse teams. At WAM, all employees can expect to work directly with members of other departments representing a range of backgrounds.

  • You work well in a flat structure and are comfortable voicing dissenting opinion. Talent and work ethic will dictate what you can achieve at WAM, as evidenced by the fact that our president and the majority of our managing directors began their careers here as interns.

  • You are driven to constantly learn, improve, and make rational decisions based in fact and data, and you welcome receiving feedback as well as sharing knowledge with others.

  • You prioritize acting ethically in all situations.

WAM is an equal opportunity employer. Women, minorities, people with disabilities, and veterans are encouraged to apply.
