Job Description

Asset and Wealth Management, Alternatives Private Operations – Real Estate Portfolio Services, Analyst, Tokyo

ABOUT GOLDMAN SACHS

At Goldman Sachs, we connect  people, capital and ideas to help solve problems for our clients. We are a leading global financial services firm providing investment banking, securities and investment management services to a substantial and diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and individuals.

ABOUT OUR ROLES

Operations is at the core of Goldman Sachs. For every trade agreed, every new product launched or market entered, every transaction completed, it is Operations that enables business to flow. Operations is  integrated  within our  businesses  and delivers  banking,  sales and  trading,  and asset  management capabilities to all our clients. We work to protect the accuracy and efficiency at every step of the trade. For example, if a company wants to buy a block of stock, Operations first ensures that the stock and payment are ready to be traded. Next, we make sure that the trade is settled properly and on time. And finally, Operations confirms that each trade is reported accurately to the buyer, the seller, the firm and the regulators. Along the way, Operations looks for anything that  could  expose our  clients  or the  firm  to financial  loss,  penalty or  other  risks. Operations  does  this for  every transaction  all around  the  world. Operations  also  aids in  the  design of  the  technology, the  information  flows and  the processes  that make  it  all work.  We  constantly monitor  these  systems and  reengineer  them to  keep  everything running as efficiently as possible. 

Asset Management Operations are responsible for front-to-back operational support to the Goldman Sachs Asset Management and Merchant Bank businesses in service, delivery, and processing functions across the trade, client, and product lifecycle.
