Hiring: Distressed Debt Research Analyst

As some of you know, there are a number of big changes in store for Distressed Debt Investing. I'll be posting some more specifics on the upcoming changes early next week, but in the meantime, I wanted to post this as soon as possible: I am hiring for my new company. This is a full-time, paid position. See below for details.

Position: Distressed Debt Research Analyst

Location: New York City

Description:

I am seeking an experienced, hard-working, and highly motivated distressed debt analyst that will cover a variety of distressed situations (pre-bankruptcy, during bankruptcy and post re-org). The analyst will provide fundamental published trade and investment recommendations (utilizing a value investing philosophy), write notes on bankruptcy proceeding, and maintain and update written research reports/database for names under their coverage. The analyst will work closely with me and have the opportunity to take on increasing responsibility over time.

The ideal candidate will have 1-2 years of experience working in restructuring or as a desk analyst at a broker/dealer covering distressed situations. Those with buy side experience in distressed debt investing, along with candidates from legal backgrounds (1st-3rd year bankruptcy associates), are also encourage to apply. I am looking for someone with a combination of strong analytical skills (valuation and restructuring waterfall models) as well as excellent communication abilities. And finally: tenacity, intellectual curiousity, and a strong work ethic are all requirements of the position.

Contact: To apply please send your resume to hunter [at] distressed-debt-investing [dot] com

Note: In addition, I am looking for interns this summer (starting in May). While I do not have a formal posting yet, if you are interested (we had a fantastic intern working for me the past 3 months), please reach out to me with your resume.
