About the Investors Team

The Investors team builds Gain's picture of private capital market participants: fund managers, their strategies, their portfolios and how they deploy capital. Our data powers investor search, benchmarking and asset-fund mapping across the platform and is increasingly becoming a core part of how our customers run their investment workflows.

We're building this product strategically around global investor coverage, creating the centralized data structures that track investor types, fund hierarchies and capital deployment at scale. The team spans a Lead, Associates, Senior Analysts, Analysts and Junior Analysts, working across profile building, asset-fund linking, data backfills, research and quality assurance and partnering with Tech and Product to take the manual grind out of the workflow wherever we can.

What will you do?

As an Analyst – Investors Team, you will contribute to building and maintaining Gain’s

global investor intelligence product, with a focus on understanding how private capital

investors are structured, how they deploy capital and how their investment activity is

represented on the platform.

You will work closely with Senior Analysts and Associates across the Investors Team,

carrying out structured research, investor profile development, fund and strategy analysis,

asset-fund linking, data validation and quality checks.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Research and analyse private market investors, primarily General Partners (GPs),

covering their investment strategies, funds, capital deployment, ownership

structures and portfolio activity.

• Build and enhance investor profiles on Gain, including fund-to-strategy mapping,

investor characteristics, fund hierarchies and relevant ownership structures.

• Research GP fund activity and fund structures using company disclosures,

regulatory filings, fund announcements, portfolio information and other reliable

public sources, applying Gain’s sourcing and research standards.

• Validate investor, fund and portfolio data through regular audits, refreshes and

deep-dive checks, identifying gaps, inconsistencies and information that requires

further research.

• Link assets to the appropriate funds and strategies, researching which fund or

strategy is responsible for an investment and applying Gain’s fund-to-strategy

linking logic to validate exceptions and ambiguous cases.

• Analyse investment activity and ownership structures, including primary

investments, continuation vehicles, co-investments and other relevant private

market transactions where applicable.

• Apply Gain’s investor taxonomy and data structures when researching and

representing strategies, fund relationships, ownership structures and capital

deployment activity.

• Use AI and automation tools in day-to-day research workflows to improve

research efficiency, accelerate repetitive tasks and support structured data

collection and validation.

• Work on research and data projects that expand investor coverage, improve data

quality and strengthen Gain’s investor intelligence capabilities.

• Work closely with Senior Analysts and Associates to review outputs, incorporate

feedback and continuously improve research quality and depth.

• Take ownership of assigned work, delivering accurate and structured outputs

while proactively flagging gaps, ambiguities and areas requiring further

investigation.
