Job Description Summary
Launch or continue to grow your career at the intersection of finance and infrastructure. As an Analyst or Associate in Municipal Public Finance, you’ll collaborate with experienced bankers to help state and local governments build our nation’s infrastructure and bring transformational projects to life — from transportation to energy and utilities to education to housing and real estate. Your work will span client engagement, financial modeling, credit rating preparation, investor presentations, proposals, and the drafting of securities offering documents. Expect to grow your analytical skills while contributing to high-stakes transactions that directly shape communities. You’ll gain exposure across diverse sectors such as Education, Higher Education, Real Estate, Transportation, Utilities, Public Private Partnerships, and more. As your experience builds, so does your influence. You’ll take on more strategic responsibilities, help structure deals, and deepen client relationships. The environment is fast-moving, intellectually challenging, and mission-driven — perfect for curious self-starters who want to see their efforts make a tangible difference.
Job Description
Essential Duties and Responsibilities of an Analyst:
•
Understand Government Finance: You’ll get to know how cities, states, and public institutions finance new initiatives and projects, analyzing their finances and figuring out ways they can improve.
•
Pitch Creative Financing Ideas: You’ll help senior bankers brainstorm new ways local governments and private sector project sponsors can fund big projects, like buildings, utilities, airports, schools, hospitals, new community infrastructure, or transit systems.
•
Build Financial Models: You’ll dive into Excel to create financial simulations, helping forecast costs, savings, and repayment strategies for public projects and leverage artificial intelligence tools in your work.
•
Research Your Sector: Stay updated on news, reports, and trends in your assigned industries and geographies, and keep the team informed about anything that might affect clients.
•
Execute Deals: During financings, you’ll help analyze project revenues, create debt profiles, review legal documents, work on offering statements and assess refinancing and cash flow, all to make sure the financing makes sense.
•
Prepare Client Presentations: Develop marketing skills by assisting in preparation of pitch books and proposals (RFPs) that help win business and communicate key information to clients.
•
Develop Marketing Materials: Help design content that explains the deal or investment opportunity to prospective buyers and investors.
•
Join Client Meetings: When possible, you’ll participate in both virtual and in-person meetings with municipal clients, developers and project sponsors to learn firsthand how deals come together and how relationships are built.
