We're counting down the top five episodes of 2024 and are down to the top three.

Coming in at number three is episode 385 with the irrepressible Cliffassness from AQR.

Cliff is part brilliant quant and part stand-up comic.

That combination always makes for an entertaining conversation chock full of

research-backed insights. Please enjoy this replay of my conversation with Cliff Asness.

Before we get going, we have some exciting news at capital allocators. We're hiring. We are looking

for a head of business development to really

lead all relationship building efforts with you, our community, the followers in the institutional

investment space. The role will involve all aspects of external facing engagements. That's

our gatherings, whether it's our summits or our universities, from planning

to leading correspondence with managers and allocators, to marketing the events that have

open registration, to hosting. The role will also collaborate with existing sponsors and

establish new sponsor relationships. And then the role will take on any new initiatives that arise.

We're always experimenting with new things, and we anticipate this person being a leader in those

new initiatives.

Ideal candidates are someone with five to 10 years of experience in financial services

or investment in management, especially in client-facing roles.

That could be investor relations, cap intro, maybe it's software sales to institutional

investors. Really what's most important is that this person is passionate about our mission

of bridging knowledge gaps and making valuable connections for institutional investors.

And without question, they are a fan of the podcast. The job spec is in the show notes.
