  The Hamilton Lane Analyst Development Program is a professional development program for ambitious, driven, and motivated graduates with an interest in the Private markets.

  We hire candidates who have demonstrated excellence in their studies, activities, and internships, who are intellectually curious, analytical, progressive, creative thinkers, energized by working in a team-based environment, are keen to work in a relationship driven and people-facing role; and are exceptional communicators.

  Our program is a unique, best in class program three-year program, which begins with a 6-week intensive training at our US Headquarters in Philadelphia. Hamilton Lane covers all expenses for Analysts attending the training and this provides an excellent start to a career at the firm, with the opportunity to see firsthand our ways of working and network with Analysts from our other global offices.

  Analysts typically work in one of six teams (Fund Investments, Secondary Investments, Direct Investments, Real Assets, Evergreen Portfolio Management or Portfolio Management Group) in a role which progressively grows in responsibility and accountability over the three-year period.

  These roles are intellectually stimulating and challenging and rewarding. Successful candidates are provided with sound developmental opportunities and great exposure to the private markets industry. Analysts are held to high standards and evaluated and coached regularly. Once they’ve successfully completed the initial three-year program, assignment participants may:

  • Be offered the opportunity to stay at Hamilton Lane on an Associate track;
  • Continue their education;
  • Use the professional network and relationships created during the program to transition their career to another firm within the asset class.

  As a first year Fund Investment Analyst , you will begin to develop the skills needed to assess private equity fund investment opportunities. You will receive exposure to private equity asset managers, called General Partners, by analyzing their private placement materials, participating in in-house meetings and site visits to their offices.

  Second year Fund Investment Analysts continue to build on the investment acumen, skills and exposure attained in their first year by moving into a more technical role on their deal teams. This includes utilizing modeling, analytical tools and skills developed during their first year and through additional training at the start of their second year. By their second year, Investment Analysts are responsible for presenting their work to investment teams.

  In their third year, Fund Investment Analysts have developed their competencies, professionalism, and investment acumen to the point where they are prepared to take on a more senior role on deal teams. While still producing individual work, they are expected to provide more insight into investment recommendations and direct and monitor the work of others. They may take on additional client facing responsibilities and receive client relationship management training to be effective communicators on behalf of Hamilton Lane. Third year analysts are involved with recruiting and selection of first year analysts. They are called on to participate in company-wide initiatives.
