Asset Manager Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become an asset manager in Massachusetts?
Most asset manager roles in Massachusetts require a bachelor's degree in finance, economics, or accounting, followed by obtaining a Series 65 or Series 66 license through FINRA, which registers you to provide investment advice in Massachusetts under oversight of the Massachusetts Securities Division. Many candidates also pursue the CFA credential to advance into portfolio management. Large Boston-based firms like Fidelity and State Street regularly hire through structured analyst programs that provide direct entry into asset management.
Which companies hire asset managers in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring asset managers in Massachusetts right now include PwC, Zeitview, and Greenvolt, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Massachusetts's concentration of mutual fund companies, insurance asset managers, and real estate investment trusts means hiring is active across both large institutions and specialized boutique firms headquartered in and around Boston.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most asset manager jobs?
Boston, Canton, and Newton account for the most asset manager openings in Massachusetts. Boston dominates because it is home to the headquarters of major asset managers such as Fidelity, State Street, and Wellington Management, while Cambridge draws demand from endowment and institutional investment offices connected to its university and research community, and Worcester reflects growing regional demand from insurance companies and community development financial institutions.
Are there remote asset manager jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, and more than many finance roles, since much of the analytical and reporting work can be done independently. About 60% of asset manager openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, though client-facing portfolio managers and those working with institutional accounts typically retain in-office expectations. Research, quantitative analysis, and back-office compliance functions tend to be the most remote-accessible parts of the role.
How can I get hired as an asset manager in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a financial analyst or investment operations associate role at a large Massachusetts firm. Fidelity Investments and State Street both run structured new-graduate analyst programs that rotate candidates through portfolio operations and research functions. Pursuing the Series 65 license through the Massachusetts Securities Division before applying signals commitment. A CFA Level I pass or a completed internship at a Boston-area investment office gives candidates a measurable edge over other early-career applicants.
Where can I find and apply to asset manager jobs in Massachusetts?
You can find and apply to asset manager jobs in Massachusetts on Migrate Mate, which lists current Massachusetts openings from employers actively hiring right now. Search the available roles, find the ones that fit your background and target location, and apply directly to each position.
