Brookfield Global Asset Management Limited stands out as a global leader investing in renewable power and infrastructure to build climate resilience, with a private equity arm managing $150 billion in assets.

About This Role

As an Analyst in Brookfield's Private Equity group, you'll support the acquisition and operational transformation of high-quality businesses providing essential products and services.

You'll directly contribute to the firm's mission of building climate-resilient infrastructure while working on complex, global transactions.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves analyzing potential acquisition targets in essential services sectors, building financial models to assess operational transformation opportunities, and collaborating with global team members to leverage Brookfield's ecosystem insights. You'll spend time researching industries with strong barriers to entry, preparing investment memos that combine financial analysis with operational improvement strategies, and participating in discussions about enhancing portfolio company cash flow capabilities through data-driven insights.
