ABOUT CANVAS

On our proprietary research team—Market Intelligence—you’ll partner with our investment professionals and Compliance team to uncover insights about companies, industries, and the broader economy through deep fundamental research.

Canvas is the supply chain research group within Market Intelligence. Canvas conducts compliant supply chain research by developing deep industry expertise, talking with private company executives, and synthesizing information for portfolio managers and analysts—our team produces impactful research that will change the way you look at the world.

ROLE SUMMARY

When you join the Canvas team, you’re signing up for the learning experience of your life. You will never look at anything the same—from grocery stores to tires to semiconductors.

  • Learn from small, medium, and large private company executives about their businesses and the industries in which they operate, including gathering qualitative data on what is happening (e.g., structural shifts, changes in supply/demand dynamics, and emerging competitors, markets, and technologies) and, importantly, why it is happening
  • Synthesize your findings in comprehensive reports that present a view of the industry
  • Gain unparalleled exposure to, and learn from, Compliance approved private company executives across industries, and your colleagues
  • Interact directly with our investment professionals and learn the discretionary investment process

WHAT EXCITES US

  • Excellent attention to detail, organization, and project management skills

  • Ability to collaborate and build relationships across multiple business units within the firm

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.


Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
