Investment Analyst Internship Health Care Sector
Orbis Corporation · London, England, United Kingdom
Investment Analyst Internship (London) Health Care Sector We believe it is the things we do differently that make the difference: our flagship global strategy has outperformed its benchmark by an average of 4.0% per year over 35 years. The same applies to our recruitment decisions. We are looking for exceptional people with a combination of intellectual curiosity, strong analytical skills, outstanding judgement, and a track record of excellence. Finance or investing experience isn’t necessary to be successful with us. For this internship, we are particularly interested in candidates who are studying towards or already have a degree in life sciences/medicine who want to apply that knowledge depth to investing in health care companies. The role will be mainly health care focused and any education in life sciences, biostatistics, or medicine will be highly valued. You bring the technical understanding; we will teach you finance. As an Investment Analyst at Orbis, you will have the opportunity to develop your stock picking skills, with a focus on the health care industry in an inclusive work environment. Career development opportunities will depend on your individual talent, progression, and interests. What will your responsibilities be? Conduct in-depth bottom-up fundamental research to evaluate investment ideas. Apply your scientific and/or clinical background to develop differentiated insights across the health care value chain – for example, judging not just whether a trial drug works, but also how much commercial value it will create. Articulate your views in reports and investment meetings (in both team specific and firm-wide settings). Participate in meetings with investor relations and management teams of companies under research. Candidates who convert to permanent positions will maintain a notional paper portfolio of their best investment ideas. This will objectively measure stock picking skill and serve as a valuable development tool. Your qualifications & experience Excellent academic performance in a medicine / life sciences related discipline, also including biostatistics, and chemistry/bioengineering, for example: A first-class degree (predicted or achieved) at undergraduate level or A 2:1 degree alongside exceptional extracurricular achievement or two or more years of full-time work experience. Specific prior finance experience is not necessary. Your mindset Outstanding personal ethics and judgement. Intellectual curiosity and the ability to think differently from the crowd. Strong self-motivation and ability to thrive in an unstructured environment. Analytical thinker. Willingness to translate scientific and clinical knowledge depth into commercial and investment judgement. Interest in a permanent position, following a successful internship.
