About the role

Multi-Asset Solutions (MAS) is an investing group within the Asset Management Division at Goldman Sachs responsible for managing customized multi-asset class portfolios and funds, including discretionary mandates for US and international public pension plans, sovereign wealth funds and insurance companies, and outsourced CIO services. The Bengaluru Portfolio Management team within MAS focuses on the Outsourced CIO channel, managing US and international defined benefit pension portfolios. The Vice President will apply portfolio management techniques across strategic and tactical asset allocation, asset-liability analysis, portfolio design and implementation, risk management, and portfolio reporting and analytics, working closely with senior portfolio managers and teams across MAS.

What you will do

  • Manage customized multi-asset OCIO portfolios for defined benefit pension clients in line with client guidelines, internal investment policies, the MAS investment philosophy, and regulatory constraints.
  • Develop investment judgment and expertise, with the expectation of independently performing key portfolio management responsibilities within a short period of joining.
  • Manage strategic and dynamic investment exposures across equities, fixed income, currencies, and alternatives using futures, forwards, exchange-traded funds, options, swaps, funds, and other appropriate instruments.
  • Manage portfolio risk across investment vehicles and product desks, including asset exposures, funded-status risk, interest-rate and credit sensitivities, currency, cash, liquidity, collateral, and investment manager and vehicle oversight.
  • Work closely with other MAS teams to implement strategic and dynamic asset allocation views consistently and on scale, including selecting optimal instruments based on pension objectives, fund-specific guidelines, regulatory requirements, liquidity, and market considerations.
  • Structure trades across asset classes to manage portfolios in line with liability-hedging, de-risking, cash-flow, and rebalancing considerations, in collaboration with trading desks and relevant investment teams.
  • Manage derivative-based overlay strategies to improve the overall risk profile of portfolios, implement liability-driven investment objectives, and capture market risk premia where appropriate.
  • Analyze portfolio risk, performance, and attribution; identify key drivers; and regularly report findings and recommended actions to senior portfolio managers.
  • Lead complex portfolio events, including onboarding new client mandates, restructuring portfolios, transitioning managers, transferring assets, deploying contributions, funding benefit payments, and implementing liability-hedging or de-risking actions. Coordinate these activities across internal teams, external managers, and trading counterparties.
  • Lead investment and risk projects that enhance and scale trading, portfolio management, controls, infrastructure, and analytics to strengthen oversight and mitigate investment and operational risks.
  • Clearly communicate investment strategies, portfolio positioning, performance, risk, and implementation rationale to internal stakeholders and client audiences with varying levels of investment sophistication.
  • Provide leadership and mentorship to junior team members and contribute to a collaborative, team-oriented global portfolio management environment.
