Asset Management
Your JobIf acquisitions is the tip of the spear, then asset management is the stick. Asset managers are responsible for ensuring that, after the acquisition, the asset actually performs as it should.

Typically, asset managers are assigned to a group of properties within a geographic region. As a junior asset manager, you will likely be assisting an asset manager with his/her portfolio before becoming responsible for your own portfolio.

Asset managers are typically paid less than their counterparts in acquisitions. Interview with an Asset ManagerThis interview is coming soon!
