Hiring Leaders Across Public Markets
Public credit sits at the intersection of scale, liquidity, and sophistication. From high yield and leveraged loans to CLOs and structured credit, the talent behind these portfolios is rigorously technical - and in short supply. We've spent more than 20 years hiring PMs, analysts, and traders at the firms defining the asset class.
