## Position Summary

The Strategy & Portfolio Management team sits at the center of Carlyle AlpInvest’s investment platform, providing analysis and insight across Primary, Secondary, Portfolio Finance, and Co-Investment strategies for Institutional and Retail/Semi-liquid products. The team collaborates with colleagues across investment, fundraising, investor relations, risk, legal, and compliance, and across offices in New York, London, Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Tokyo. As a Senior Analyst, you will develop deep knowledge about private equity portfolio management and construction, set up and maintain in-depth analyses of the firm’s portfolios, and work with large, complex datasets to create, manage, analyze, report, and explain investment and portfolio information. The role leverages Carlyle AlpInvest’s proprietary portfolio database, industry benchmarks, AI tools, and financial models, with a focus on developing and scaling these tools and processes to support a growing investor and product base. Analysis from the team informs strategic portfolio management decisions with regular exposure to investment team leadership and senior management.

## Responsibilities

  
- Drive strategic decisions through advanced modelling and analyses of funds, portfolios, and liquidity.
  
- Maintain track records and key metrics across Primary, Secondary, and Co-Investment strategies to support fundraising and internal benchmarking.
  
- Prepare and automate monthly, quarterly, and annual portfolio reporting for investors, including performance attribution and benchmarking.
  
- Serve as a key point of contact for portfolio-related inquiries from investors, delivering timely, accurate, and well-reasoned responses.

## Modeling & Tools

  
- Develop and enhance portfolio models covering cash flow forecasting, pacing, performance analysis/attribution, and client allocation.
  
- Support budgeting and forecasting at the portfolio, product, and firm level, including scenario analysis to inform strategic planning.
  
- Design and implement new analytical tools and reporting frameworks; improve business processes to scale operations for a rapidly growing client base.

## Strategic Support

  
- Work with investment team leadership and senior management to establish and continually improve Carlyle AlpInvest’s liquidity and portfolio management practices.
  
- Support fundraising efforts through the preparation of track record materials, exposure modeling, and product development analyses.
  
- Contribute to ad hoc strategic initiatives and management presentations across the platform.

## Education & Certificates

## Professional Experience

Up to 2 years of experience in a relevant field.

## Competencies & Attributes

  
- Advanced Excel skills; comfortable building and maintaining complex financial models.
  
- Analytical mindset with strong attention to detail; able to work accurately with large, multi-source datasets and translate findings into clear, actionable conclusions.
  
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to distill complex quantitative output into concise, well-reasoned narratives for a senior audience.
  
- Highly organized and structured, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams and prioritize under deadlines.
