Qualities we seek

Common skills, many roles

Despite the diversity of roles and responsibilities at Capital, our associates generally have in common:

  • Thoughtful attention to thoroughness and detail
    With millions of investors relying on us and billions of dollars under our management, we know that getting things right the first time is a key to our overall success.

  • Strong self-motivation
    We rely on our associates to show initiative in finding ways to do their jobs more effectively and to anticipate mutual fund shareholder, client and business needs.

  • Collaborative decision-making
    Our associates contribute to the decision-making process with a focus on arriving at the most effective solution rather than one that is most popular or that comes from the most influential source.

  • Analytical skills
    We are known for our thorough investment research, and we benefit from a similar level of analytical thinking and problem-solving from all associates.

  • Communication skills
    Our collaborative work environment requires excellent verbal, written and interpersonal communication skills.

  • Ability to work independently and in teams
    Our associates are able to work by themselves with a minimum of direction as well as collaboratively within groups.

We help individuals with these skills develop their abilities across a range of activities from marketing to communications, from administration to human resources support, from research and investment, to many other responsibilities.
