About Calvert Research & Management Calvert Research & Management (Calvert), a Morgan Stanley company, is a global asset manager focused exclusively on responsible investing. For over 40 years, Calvert has sought to deliver competitive long-term investment performance while advancing positive environmental and social outcomes through proprietary research, active ownership, and disciplined portfolio construction.

This role will focus on institutional client strategy, investment content, and client service support across Calvert’s responsible investing strategies.

Support preparation for client meetings, consultant reviews, due diligence meetings, and educational sessions by developing briefing materials, talking points, and follow-up items. Help communicate performance updates, portfolio positioning, market developments, and emerging themes in partnership with senior team members. Support onboarding of new institutional clients and ongoing client due diligence processes as needed. Maintain organized records of client-facing materials, frequently used responses, and approved messaging to improve team efficiency. 3. Business Development & Sales Enablement Partner with Institutional Sales and senior strategy colleagues to support new business efforts, consultant engagement, and prospect follow-up. Contribute to RFPs, consultant questionnaires, due diligence materials, and other sales enablement content. Help prepare materials for prospect meetings, finals presentations, and strategy reviews. Develop familiarity with Calvert’s investment strategies, differentiators, competitive positioning, and institutional market trends to support clear and consistent messaging. Assist with internal education efforts by helping Sales and Marketing teams understand strategy positioning and responsible investing themes. 4. Investment Knowledge & Cross-Functional Coordination Build understanding of Calvert investment strategies, responsible investing research, active ownership priorities, performance drivers, and institutional client considerations. Coordinate with Portfolio Managers and Research Analysts to gather relevant investment insights and ensure client-facing content is accurate and current. Monitor market, peer, and industry developments that may inform client communications or content priorities. Support special projects that improve client engagement, content quality, reporting efficiency, or team operating processes. Demonstrate strong follow-through, attention to detail, and judgment when working across teams and deadlines. Qualifications 3–6 years of experience in asset management, financial services, investment communications, institutional client service, product support, RFP/content development, or a related role. Working knowledge of asset management, investment products, portfolio construction, performance drivers, and institutional client needs.
