Your team

UBS Asset Management is one of the world's leading investment managers, with a global platform across major financial hubs including London, Zurich, New York and Singapore.

Poland plays an increasingly important role within this platform. What began as a location focused on operational and support activities has evolved into a fully integrated hub, now our third-largest Asset Management location globally.

Unlike traditional offshore models, our teams in Kraków and Wroclaw are embedded in front-office workflows and work closely with global investment teams across asset classes. They directly support the implementation of portfolios, mandates, and customized client solutions, with exposure across the full investment lifecycle. Our teams contribute across a wide range of investment disciplines, including portfolio support, quantitative research, investment content preparation, and business management.

As the platform continues to grow, responsibilities and opportunities continue to expand, reflecting the strategic importance of our Poland hub within UBS Asset Management.

We're looking for early-career professionals (up to 5 years of relevant experience) and experienced candidates (5+ years of relevant experience) who are passionate about investing. Required skills and experience include:

• Portfolio Management specific:
- experience in investments or asset management, particularly index Equity, index Fixed Income or index Multi-Asset portfolio management, with a good understanding of financial markets and instruments,

• Trade Execution specific:
- experience in trading across different asset classes and sectors, with a strong understanding of market structures, liquidity dynamics, and price formation,

• Overall
- strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret complex financial data and exercise sound judgment
