As a forward thinking asset manager, we build dynamic relationships with clients, understand their goals, and navigate complex markets together. We leverage cutting edge strategies and deep insights to unlock opportunities for long term wealth creation. Our talented, global teams bring expertise that is both broad and unique. From our welcoming, inclusive, and supportive culture to our globally diverse business, we offer opportunities not only to help you reach your potential, but also to contribute to our clients’ success. **About Our Team**Franklin Templeton Investment Solutions (FTIS) manages approximately $140B in assets and serves as the firm's multi-asset solutions platform.

The team combines strategic asset allocation, portfolio construction, manager research, and risk management expertise to deliver outcome-oriented investment strategies for clients globally.**About The Role**We are seeking a Portfolio Manager to lead the research, construction, and day-to-day management of our Alternative Risk Premia (ARP) strategies. Alternative risk premia strategies systematically harvest well-documented return sources such as value, momentum, carry, and defensive/quality, implemented long/short across multiple asset classes including equity indices and single stocks, fixed income, currencies, and commodities.This is a hands-on, multi-asset role that blends rigorous quantitative research with practical, real-money portfolio management. The successful candidate will own the full lifecycle of the strategy: signal research, portfolio construction and optimization, risk management, trade implementation across cash and derivative instruments, and performance attribution. You will be both an investor and a builder – equally comfortable conducting research, overseeing execution, and maintaining and enhancing the platform that supports the investment process.This role will provide you with an opportunity to shape and grow a systematic strategy platform with meaningful autonomy, and work in a collaborative, intellectually rigorous environment that pairs deep research with thoughtful portfolio management. We have the resources of a $1.7T global asset manager to support investment, operational, and commercial success.How You Will Add Value* Own the end-to-end management of the ARP book, including research, portfolio construction, implementation, rebalancing, and risk budgeting across asset classes.* Research, design, and validate systematic signals and evaluate candidate factors for statistical robustness and economic intuition, with a thoughtful approach to capacity, turnover, overfitting, and live-versus-back test tracking.* Define and monitor the ARP framework to impose strong risk discipline, with specific focus on risk exposure, leverage, liquidity, and stress/scenario analysis.* Oversee a team of quantitative researchers, and collaborate with other multi-asset investment teams, traders, solutions portfolio managers, and risk and operations teams to take ideas from research into robust, scalable production.* Engage with clients and prospects as needed to support marketing efforts, client service, and distribution opportunities.* Stay current with academic and practitioner research on factor investing, and continuously improve the strategy's signals, execution, and infrastructure.**What Will Help You Be Successful in This Role**Experience, Education & Certifications* **Requires 10+ years of experience in a systematic or quant finance role, with 5+ years managing ARP portfolios.*** Bachelor's degree in quantitative discipline: mathematics, statistics, physics, financial engineering, computer science, economics, or a related field. Advanced degree and/or professional certification (CFA, CQF, FRM) preferred.* Experience working with python and AI coding tools in a professional investment setting, e.g. conducting research, producing analytics, and automating reporting.* Hands-on experience trading derivatives, with practical fluency in instruments such as equity futures and swaps, interest rate futures and swaps/swaptions, FX forwards, total return swaps, and commodity futures – including risk, margin, financing, and execution characteristics.* Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex strategies and results to both technical and non-technical audiences. Track record of publishing or presenting original research on factor investing or systematic strategies preferred.* Prior experience managing quant researchers and an entrepreneurial mindset to driving commercial success for the ARP platform.**Work Schedule & Location*** Hybrid work schedule* Work Location: Boston, MACompensation Range: Franklin Templeton offers employees a competitive and valuable range of total rewards—monetary and non-monetary — designed to support their well-being and recognize their time, talents, and results.

We also offer a comprehensive benefits package, which includes a range of competitive healthcare options, insurance, and disability benefits, employee stock investment program, learning resources, career development programs, reimbursement for certain education expenses, paid time off (vacation / holidays / sick / leave / parental & caregiving leave / bereavement / volunteering / floating holidays) and a motivational well-being program.
