Position Summary

Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities:

• Deliver the annual intern and analyst classes to the headcount, quality, and diversity objectives set with business leadership.
• Be the single person accountable for the early-career experience. Interns should know who owns their program.
• Advise business sponsors on project design, managing interns, and evaluation, and hold them to program standards.
• Build inclusive sourcing and selection into the standard process instead of running diversity recruiting as a separate track.
• Keep up the network of alumni and candidates who were not converted as a source of future candidates.
• Represent the firm credibly to students, faculty, career services, and veteran transition organizations.

Campus Recruiting Strategy & Execution

• Own the firm's campus strategy: which schools, programs, and student organizations to recruit from, and why. Review each school's return every year based on conversion and retention.
• Build and maintain relationships with career services offices, faculty, student organizations, affinity groups, and veteran services offices.
• Run the full recruiting cycle: information sessions, career fairs, case competitions, coffee chats, first-round and superday interviews, offer delivery, and candidate close.
• Manage the firm's employer brand on campus, including digital presence, collateral, and making sure every employee who represents the firm tells the same story.
• Recruit, train, and coordinate the interviewer and campus ambassador network across business units.

Intern Program Management

• Own the internship program end to end for all cohorts: structure, calendar, curriculum, and experience standards.
• Source intern projects with business sponsors and check their quality. Each project needs a real deliverable and a named owner.
• Design and run intern onboarding to match the enterprise onboarding framework and the 30/60/90 structure owned by the Talent Management function.
• Build and manage the mentorship and buddy structure, including what managers are expected to do and the support they get.
• Own the intern evaluation framework, midpoint and final reviews, and the conversion decision process, including calibration so conversion standards are the same across businesses.
• Measure the program on an ongoing basis: intern feedback, project quality, conversion rate, and how long converted hires stay.

Veteran Intern Program (VTAP)

• Manage the veteran intern program day to day, working with the Head of Talent Management & Culture on strategy and how the program fits across the firm.
• Build sourcing channels separate from traditional campus recruiting military transition programs (SkillBridge and similar), veteran service organizations, veteran-focused university programs, and military-affiliated student groups and internal relationships.
• Translate military experience into fit for the role and train hiring managers to do the same.
• Design onboarding and integration support for the move from military to corporate life, including cohort community and mentor pairing.
• Own the paths from veteran internship to full-time role and track veteran results separately, so the program is measured on placement and retention rather than participation.
• Work with Culture & Inclusion on how the program is presented inside and outside the firm.

Pipeline, Data & Operations

• Own early-career pipeline data: applications, conversion at each stage and by school, offer acceptance, intern-to-full-time conversion, and one- and two-year retention of converted hires.
• Report pipeline health and program results to CPO and business leadership on a set schedule.
• Manage the program budget, campus event spending, and vendor and platform relationships (ATS, campus platforms, assessment tools).
• Keep recruiting practice consistent, documented, and defensible, working with Legal and Compliance on record-keeping and selection standards.

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications:

• 3-5+ years in campus or early-career recruiting, program management, or both, including at least one full recruiting cycle owned end to end.
• Has run or substantially built an internship program, not only recruited into one.
• Can recruit full cycle: sourcing, assessment, closing candidates, and offer negotiation.
• Disciplined program and project management. This role runs a complex calendar with many stakeholders and fixed deadlines.
• Strong stakeholder management with busy business leaders whose interviewing commitments compete with client work.
• Comfortable with recruiting data: can build a funnel, read it, and change strategy based on it.
• Willing to travel during peak seasons and to work the longer hours those seasons require.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• Campus recruiting experience in financial services or asset management.
• Direct experience with veteran hiring or military transition programs (SkillBridge, Hiring Our Heroes), or personal military affiliation.
• Experience with inclusive sourcing strategy, with measurable results.
• Fluency with ATS and campus platforms.
• Experience managing a program budget.
