Our Research and Publishing team is looking for a small number of recent college graduates in finance to help build a database of stocks in the cannabis industry. The successful candidate will use their finance training to produce institutional-quality research reports for a retail audience. You will report to a former mutual fund manager and learn not only about the numbers but about how to assess the more subjective criteria which lead to a company’s success – management, market positioning, regulatory compliance, quality investor relations, etc. You’ll also hone your writing skills and make contacts in the industry.
Why would you be interested in the cannabis industry? For the same reason we are. The cannabis industry is transitioning from illicit to legal state by state, country by country. In the US it’s currently a $8 billion dollar industry at retail and will be a $70 - $100 billion industry in 10 years – as big as digital TV and video. The ability to understand an industry from its infancy to its maturity in such a short time is an opportunity which has never been available to investment analysts before. Those in on the ground floor will gain the skills to analyze any industry.
The position is initially full-time temporary for approximately four months. After the four months a permanent position will be available a high achiever who want to continue with the company. For someone who chooses to move on, they will be one of a tiny number of qualified cannabis investment analysts in the world just as investing in the sector becomes mainstream and acceptable to investment banks and institutional investors.
