Blackfinch Property has recruited Chris Adams as a Junior Investment Analyst.

Chris graduated from Keele University with a degree in Mathematics before starting his career as a portfolio analyst for a private asset management firm, where he focused on multi-asset class portfolios within both liquid and private markets.

Chris then became an investment analyst for a wealth management firm where he was responsible for generating technical research on global financial markets and providing portfolio optimisation recommendations within equities, fixed income and alternatives.

Commenting on his new role, Chris said: “I’m excited to join the Blackfinch Property team to have the opportunity to work on different types of projects and to provide solutions to unique challenges. I’m also keen to make a difference in people's lives, and to be a part of the solution in solving Britain's existing housing crisis”.

Nicola Mayes, Investment Manager, says: “We are delighted to have Chris join the team at an exciting time of year, before the pre-Christmas rush, to provide extra support with our growing loan book. We have had a record year of enquiries, and Chris brings a brilliant set of investment appraisal and analytical skills which will help the team evaluate new deals and work on completions more efficiently. Having been here less than a week, Chris is already assisting on client calls and with new transactions; we can’t wait to see how he thrives at Blackfinch.”
