Researcher & Report Writer

Salary Competitive

If you work in the startup or finance space, you might have heard the term "family office" being thrown around especially when it comes to raising investment. But have you ever wondered who or what they are? How they really operate? How do they compare themselves to others and improve what they do?

Here at Simple, we are on a mission to make the world of family offices more, well, simple. We debunk the complexity as we dive into large landscape questions such as, what is a family office, how many family offices are there and how to start one. At the same time, we're working to re-imagine the potential of family offices as a force of change in the world, so we look through new lenses such as purpose drive, digital excellence, transparency sustainability, diversity and wellbeing.

We're setting new standards in what we do while dragging this dusty old industry with us to make it both relevant and totally fetch.

As part of this work, we track service providers to family offices across different categories, compare them and help family offices select them. We also publish various annual reports on focus areas that affect our clients.

In short, we provide the insights, services and real-time data to help re-imagine private wealth.

 

Here are a couple of firsts:

  • Our founder is leading the family office conversation on Forbes.com

  • We proposed some new definitions

  • New market estimations

  • First for comparable data on technology service providers

  • Real time operational benchmark data

We're having a lot of tailwinds right now and seeing some great traction around our online family office insights and data platform, but we understand that to continue our success we must develop more research publications, papers and databases around what our customers want to know. That's where you come in.

Our customers include both family offices and service providers to family offices. 

About the role and responsibilities

  • Conceptualise, plan and develop new research projects.

  • Build effective and mutually beneficial relationships with our clients that ensure high levels of engagement

  • Team up with our business dev people to make sure we can effectively monetize the research we're working on.

  • Work with product teams around effective data management and publication of reports around specific research projects.

  • Analyse and leverage data, as well as market and competitive trends, to help provide input to strategic decisions regarding our overall strategy

 

About You

  • People say you’re a great communicator and you can build a mean presentation deck

  • You're analytical and leave no stone unturned when it comes to exploring a topic at hand

  • You are able to work on different projects at the same time

  • You are curious, technologically savvy and not afraid of getting hands-on in the details

  • You’re a great listener
