Church Pension Group (CPG) is a financial services organization that serves the Episcopal Church, located in Midtown Manhattan. CPG was founded in 1917 to provide pension benefits to eligible clergy of the Episcopal Church. Since then, its mission has expanded to include life and disability insurance, health benefits, property & casualty insurance, and publishing.
The Director, Lead Data Scientist will help define and build the future of data and analytics within The Church Pension Fund’s Investments department. As a partner to the Chief Investment Officer, asset class leads, and the risk and performance reporting team, the Director will shape how CPF uses data to generate investment insights, evaluate portfolio opportunities and risks, and support decision-making. The role is intended not simply to respond to data requests, but to identify opportunities, develop new approaches, and influence the evolution of CPF’s investment process through data.
CPF oversees approximately $20 billion across a diversified portfolio of public and private investments. CPF partners with a wide range of external investment managers and holds interests in several hundred individual funds, generating a vast array of data ranging from top-level portfolio Net Asset Values to detailed information about individual holdings within venture capital, real estate, public equity, and other funds. CPF’s access to top-tier investment managers generates an unusually high-quality and differentiated data set. CPF is currently creating an internal data warehouse, initially focused on holdings-level data for private funds, with plans to expand the range of information over time. The Director will play a leading role in determining how this platform evolves and in building the processes, analytical capabilities, and visualizations that enable CPF to derive greater value from its investment data.
Along with working closely with members of the Investments department, the Director will partner with Church Pension Group’s data engineering team. The data engineering team will maintain primary responsibility for development work on the data warehouse, with the Director serving as a bridge between Investments and the IT team to translate investment needs into data and technology priorities and solutions. Through these partnerships, the Director will have substantial ownership over the strategic direction and application of CPF’s investment data and analytics capabilities.
- Manage the Investments department’s data warehouse, working with asset class specialists to assure data quality
- Develop an overall view of the Investments department’s data resources, combining the data warehouse with other vendor tools
- Determine, in collaboration with the CIO and other members of the Investments team, the strategic direction for CPF’s data analysis capabilities
- Use business intelligence tools to drive value from the data warehouse and other databases, creating and maintaining regular reports at the level of the overall portfolio and individual asset classes
- Respond to ad hoc requests and inquiries about CPF’s data, for example to identify trends in portfolio-company valuations within private investment funds or sector and factor exposures within the public equity allocation
- Carry out modeling and stress-testing work at the portfolio and asset class levels
- Form well-supported hypotheses about exposures and risks within CPF’s portfolio and present them to asset class specialists, the risk team, and the CIO
- Liaise with the Investments department’s vendor specialist to optimize CPF’s data access and flow while managing resources prudently
- Work with the data engineering team within Church Pension Group’s Information and Technology Services department to facilitate advances in the data warehouse and ensure smooth functioning of the overall data layer
- Collaborate with data engineering to facilitate cross-vendor data quality checks and reconciliation
- Effective performance of the essential functions of this position requires regular in-person, on-site interaction with colleagues, both for purposes of relationship building and meaningful collaboration.
Qualifications
- Knowledge of institutional investment topics
- Expertise in business intelligence and database management tools
- Familiarity with coding languages used for data analysis
- Strong understanding of data visualization and reporting techniques and tool-kits
- Strong communication skills and interpersonal skills, including the ability to convey complex information clearly and to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences
- Ability to conduct research both independently and under direction
- Educational background in data science, preferably including a master’s degree in the field or a related field (e.g., mathematics or finance) with a data science concentration or certificate
- 10+yrs years of relevant experience, preferably within an investment organization or a data provider

Tips for Your Associate Director of Investments Job Search
Align your resume to investment thesis language
Hiring committees at asset managers and PE firms scan for how you frame your investment philosophy. Mirror the asset class language from each job posting, whether that's credit, infrastructure, or long/short equity, so your experience reads as directly relevant, not transferable.
Quantify portfolio impact, not just activity
Avoid listing deals you worked on without outcomes. Committees want IRR contributions, AUM growth under your oversight, or realized versus unrealized return comparisons. If your firm restricts specific figures, describe portfolio scale and strategy outcomes in relative terms.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists associate director of investments openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target postings by mandate, not just title
An associate director of investments role at a foundation with a sustainable mandate requires different preparation than one at a hedge fund focused on distressed debt. Filter openings by asset class and investment mandate first so your application materials stay precisely positioned.
Prepare a prepared list of live deal examples
Interviewers at this level expect you to walk through a current or recent position in your portfolio unprompted. Have two or three investment theses ready, covering entry rationale, sizing decisions, and how your view has evolved with new information.
Negotiate total compensation structure, not just base
At the associate director level, carried interest, co-investment rights, and deferred compensation often matter more than base salary. Before your final conversation, clarify vesting schedules and whether co-invest opportunities are available to your level at that firm.
Associate Director of Investments Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most associate director of investmentss?
BDO, Advyzon, and Fidelity Investments are hiring the most associate director of investmentss right now, with openings concentrated in New York, Illinois, and Massachusetts, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Institutional asset managers, insurance companies, and university endowments tend to post the highest volume of roles at this level.
How many associate director of investments jobs are remote?
About 100% of associate director of investments openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with the highest remote share concentrated in roles focused on research, credit analysis, and manager selection rather than deal origination or relationship-driven private markets work, which typically require in-office or on-site presence.
How do you become a associate director of investments?
You typically move into this role after several years as an investment analyst or associate, building a consistent record of sourcing, evaluating, and monitoring investments. Earning a CFA strengthens your candidacy significantly. From there, taking on direct portfolio responsibility, presenting to investment committees, and developing sector depth in a specific asset class are the clearest paths to reaching the associate director level.
How do you get hired as a associate director of investments with limited experience?
Candidates with fewer years in a traditional investment role often succeed by demonstrating deep sector expertise, such as a background operating in an industry before moving to investing. Strong financial modeling skills, familiarity with the asset class the team covers, and any experience managing a portion of a portfolio, even informally, help close the gap against candidates with longer investment tenures.
What does the associate director of investments interview process look like?
Most firms run a process that starts with a screening call focused on your background and investment philosophy, followed by a modeling or case study exercise covering a hypothetical or live position. Later rounds typically include an investment committee presentation where you pitch an idea and defend your thesis under questioning, plus conversations with portfolio managers and senior directors assessing fit and judgment.
