Description


Jonathan Rose Companies (“JRCo”) is a leading developer and investor in sustainable, affordable, and mixed-income housing, and the 10th largest owner of this type of multifamily in the U.S. JRCo is a fully integrated real estate company with in-house acquisitions, development, construction management, and property management. JRCo is also a SEC-registered investment advisor with 15 years of fund management experience and $1.1 billion of assets under management. 

The Acquisitions Group is responsible for sourcing new investment opportunities, including direct investments and joint ventures, managing operating partner relationships, conducting due diligence, obtaining debt financing, grants and subsidies, conducting closings, creating property-level business plans, coordinating with the Finance and Accounting team, and transitioning new acquisitions to the Asset Management team. 

The ideal Analyst should have up to 3 years of experience in the disciplines of investments and/or real estate finance.  This may include one or more of the following: real estate investing, private equity, investment banking, mortgage banking, venture capital, or social impact investing. Experience from top-tier consulting firms and other “buy-side” investment firms will also be strongly considered.

A minimum of a Bachelor’s is required, preferably in a quantitative field such as Finance, Economics, Math, or Engineering.  MBA’s and/or Master’s in Real Estate are a plus, but not required if candidates demonstrate requisite work experience. Specific knowledge and exposure to Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) and/or HUD programs is a plus, but not required. 

Interest in sustainability, affordable housing, urbanism, and/or social impact investing is requisite.

The candidate should demonstrate strong analytical abilities, quantitative problem-solving skills, and familiarly with key investing concepts, with emphasis placed on real estate financial modeling, including:

  • Advance skills in Excel modeling
  • Investment underwriting and pro forma construction
  • Operating cash flow projections
  • Returns analyses, including discounted cash flow and sensitivity analyses
  • Due Diligence processes
  • Market research and data analysis
  • Investment briefings and memoranda

Above all else, the candidate should demonstrate a willingness to learn rapidly and quickly tackle the variety of tasks necessary in closing affordable housing transactions:

  • Understanding the complexities of LIHTC, HUD, and state subsidy programs
  • Reviewing and negotiating legal documents
  • Understanding tax and accounting implications
