Impact Investing Mandate Manager

Come build on our integrated platform with industry-leading talent, world-class partners, and freedom to innovate.

Liberty Mutual Investments (LMI) is the investment firm for Liberty Mutual Group (Liberty). With deep expertise in fixed income, equity, and alternative strategies, LMI invests more than $100B of long-term capital globally, and has a team of nearly 300 investment, finance, and operations professionals located in Boston, MA, and New York, NY. LMI has a clear purpose: drive economic growth, build enduring businesses side-by-side with our partners, and generate superior risk-adjusted returns that secure Liberty's promises.

LMI offers the best of both worlds — the look and feel of a boutique investment firm with the reputation and financial strength of a global leader. As the investment firm of a mutual with long-term capital, LMI has a single client mandate. This gives us the freedom to focus on what we do best.

Our portfolio spans a broad spectrum of public and private investments, and we are committed to expanding our capabilities and our toolkit in support of our mission. We invest across diverse asset classes, financial structures, and industries, including real estate, digital infrastructure, healthcare, renewable energy, and technology—with the aim of creating value and powering innovation. We pride ourselves on our extensive network of mutually beneficial partnerships, and we use our substantial influence, capital, and energy to drive towards a better future.

The Impact Investing mandate is focused on generating meaningful social impact in three key areas: (i) boosting social mobility, (ii) expanding access to essential services, and (iii) enhancing resiliency, revitalization, and adaptation. LMI has earmarked $1 billion in balance sheet capital to support the mandate and is seeking commercial returns in tandem with compelling social impact.
