Analyst Rotation Program
We created our Analyst Rotation Program to help students and early career professionals with under two years of work experience learn real estate fundamentals and gain exposure to a range of career paths within real estate. Over the course of two years, program participants get the chance to complete two placements across different areas of our business.
The placements provide exposure to various areas of our business – such as investments, asset management, development, investor relations, or marketing – and could be located in another regional office, giving participants exposure to international markets.
Internship Program
Slate recruits Seasonal Analysts accross all of our regional offices. Seasonal Analysts act as a “jack of all trades” with exposure to all facets of our business. Typical responsibilities include research and analysis, financial modelling, due diligence and underwriting assistance, financial reporting, budgeting/corporate reporting and other projects.
Our goal is to convert Seasonal Analysts into full-time hires following successful completion of their internship.
