As part of the continued evolution of its unlisted platform, Brighter Super is seeking a Senior Investment Analyst to take a meaningful role on their Real Estate portfolio.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Head of Private Equity & Real Assets, you will work across the full real estate investment lifecycle - sourcing and assessing new opportunities, leading detailed due diligence, preparing investment papers and overseeing portfolio performance.
You will play a visible role in shaping real estate strategy, contributing to asset allocation decisions and partnering closely with senior stakeholders, external managers and advisors.
Key focus areas include:
* Assessing and executing new real estate investments across Australia and internationally (fund mandates, co-investments, and direct opportunities)
* Building robust financial models to support valuation and portfolio construction decisions
* Preparing high-quality Investment Committee and Board papers
* Monitoring performance, risk and ESG outcomes across the portfolio
* Contributing to asset class strategy and regulatory reporting requirements
* Leading due diligence and preparing IC and Board papers
* Ongoing manager engagement, performance interrogation and annual asset class reviews
This is a portfolio-facing role with genuine accountability - suited to someone ready to step beyond pure execution and take broader responsibility in this rare Brisbane Investments role in a leading superannuation fund and institutional investor.
The Profile
You will bring strong real estate investment experience from superannuation, private markets, funds management or advisory (circa 10-year+ career experience). You are technically strong, commercially aware and comfortable forming and defending investment views.
Most importantly, you're motivated by long-term value creation and want to contribute in a team where your impact genuinely matters. Brighter Super values professionals who operate with integrity - people who are trustworthy, transparent, accountable and committed to delivering meaningful outcomes for members.
