Simplified
LPL Financial Research is a team that provides market insights, asset allocation, and model portfolios to our independent advisors. Our mission is to be a trusted partner to our advisors who provide investors with choices to help meet their financial goals. In this endeavor, our sole motivation is to provide stellar investment management advice — as a partner for those advisors who manage client assets themselves or as a portfolio manager for those advisors who want to leverage our experience.
LPL is seeking an Investment Analyst to join its Investment Research department in Charlotte, NC. The Global Manager Research Team gathers, analyzes, and disseminates information and opinions on public investment funds, supporting decision making by our discretionary services portfolio managers and clients. Investment Analysts receive ongoing training and mentorship from research and client facing investment staff. Analysts will also enter our two year Analyst Development Program, which provides specific quarterly milestones and individual mentoring from senior leadership. Because deep knowledge and experience are important for maximizing an IA's time, we are looking for candidates who are interested in growing with our Research Team for a minimum of 2-3 years.
Responsibilities
The Investment Analyst will have a wide range of opportunities to contribute, including:
$70,125-$116,875/year
Actual base salary varies based on factors, including but not limited to, relevant skill, prior experience, education, base salary of internal peers, demonstrated performance, and geographic location. Additionally, LPL Total Rewards package is highly competitive, designed to support your success at work, at home, and at play – such as 401K matching, health benefits, employee stock options, paid time off, volunteer time off, and more. Your recruiter will be happy to discuss all that LPL has to offer!
