Analyst — Investments & Asset Management | Vantrock Investment Managers LLP | Mumbai Metropolitan Region

Not a research desk. The Analyst builds the models and the market base for live industrial and logistics land deals, supports them to closing, and then follows the same assets into asset management and reporting. The first rung of a ladder that runs Analyst to Associate to Principal.

ABOUT VANTROCK

Vantrock is an independent real assets platform. Real assets only.

We start where we know the ground: logistics, warehousing and industrial parks, across the full chain – first mile, last mile, city-centre, dark-store and self-storage formats, and logistics-anchored mixed-use developments with distribution below and office above. From there, in sequence and only as each is delivered: industrial plots; suburban campuses, GCC and back-office space; strata offices; and, in parallel, data centres and senior living.

Three parts, kept deliberately separate. The founder's own balance sheet takes the first risk: land is acquired, de-risked and approved on his capital before any investor commits.

Vantrock Real Assets Private

Limited – with its own board, team and governance – is the development manager and operator.

Vantrock Investment

Managers LLP is the investment manager; its team underwrites every asset independently and answers to an independent Investment Committee, which alone decides what enters a strategy. Assets enter at cost, with no founder premium, and the platform earns only after its investors have. Independent and operator-led – and this team does the underwriting.

Vantrock was founded by Anshul Singhal, Founder & CEO, who has built three institutional platforms from zero and is building the fourth on his own capital. 52 million sq ft delivered (32 million as developer, 20 million as contractor), over 2,000 acres acquired, all litigation-free, more than 200 buildings, and India's largest industrial real estate exit. Delivered across the founder's three prior platforms. We don't hire roles. We build the platform.

WHAT THE TEAM UNDERWRITES

Two decades on this ground and a gap institutional capital left open below the 100-acre logistics park.

The first phase: 10-to-50-acre parcels in MMR, Pune, NCR and Bengaluru, taken through approvals quickly on the founder's own capital and turned into 2.5 lakh to 1.2 million sq ft campuses – shovel-ready before an investor commits, each asset underwritten to its own exit.

The full chain: Grade-A big-box and build-to-suit, urban multi-storey, first- and last-mile, dark stores and self-storage, branded industrial plots, Grade-B-to-Grade-A refurbishment, logistics-anchored mixed-use. Assets are seeded before a fund is launched, never blind. Pipeline 10 million sq ft; ground breaks on the first 2 million sq ft in January 2027.

THE INVESTMENT TEAM The investment team is the platform's transaction engine: three seats — Principal, Associate and Analyst — based in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and working across the four active markets. The team originates, underwrites, structures and closes the platform's investments, and then stays with each asset for its life.



Every underwriter becomes the Asset Sponsor of the deals they close and works alongside the Finance & Asset Management team on asset management, investor reporting and asset-level capital.

A rounded investments team, not a deal desk that hands over at signing.

THE SEAT

Reports to: Founder & CEO / Head of the Investment Team; day-to-day direction from the Associate

Direct reports: None

Location: Mumbai Metropolitan Region — in person. Travel to NCR, Pune and Bengaluru.

Experience: 2–5 years in investment analysis, transaction advisory, valuation or real-estate research

Team structure, reporting lines, direct reports, seat titles and the hiring entity described here reflect the current plan and may change as the platform builds out. Compensation is confirmed in the offer.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS The Analyst is the team's analytical engine: models, market research, diligence support, data rooms, closing trackers, and the numbers behind the monthly Asset Review and the investor report.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

1. Build and maintain the investment models — land acquisition, development cost, leasing, financing, operating cash flows and exit — with project and equity IRR, MOIC, yield on cost and development margin, documented and consistent with the team's standard.
2. Own the market database. Micro-market demand drivers, competing supply, rentals, land values, vacancy, absorption and infrastructure; comparable-transaction and land-value benchmarks; occupier movements across 3PL, manufacturing, e-commerce, corporate office, hyperscaler and colocation.
3. Run the diligence tracker and the data room. Coordinate the platform's partners, read their reports, summarise the findings and their impact, and track conditions precedent to closing.
4. Prepare first-cut screening notes and support the Associate on Investment Committee memoranda.
5. Prepare the data for the monthly Asset Review with the Financial Controller & Head of Asset Management — actuals against underwriting, cost against spend, leasing, drawdowns and returns — and the investment inputs to periodic investor reports.
6. Support pipeline, track-record and case-study material for asset-level capital, and site-visit notes and location assessments for the Principal.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR Warehousing, logistics and industrial at the core – required; office alongside; data-centre exposure valued; residential as background only.

– 2–5 years of relevant experience with real exposure to live transactions — modelling, valuation, diligence support, IC materials or closing.

– Solid financial-modelling and analytical capability; advanced Excel and PowerPoint; fluent with AI tools for research and analysis.

– Clear writing, high attention to detail and the ability to manage several workstreams at once.

– Based in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, or relocating before joining. Willing to travel for site visits and diligence.





– A Bachelor's degree in finance, economics, commerce, engineering, real estate or a related discipline.

– Not a research-only or reporting-only seat. The Analyst works live deals to closing.

COMPENSATION

Vantrock benchmarks compensation against the upper quartile for the role and market, weighted toward equity for candidates who want to build with us long-term. We discuss specific numbers in the first conversation rather than anchoring either side prematurely. Wealth creation is part of the engine, not only the salary: performance-linked bonuses and ESOP-linked incentives, priced to the seat and confirmed in the offer.

CULTURAL FIT

We're building Vantrock over a decade, not a funding cycle. We're looking for people who treat technology as the default answer rather than a supplement, who want to be co-builders of the platform rather than employees executing instructions, and who are comfortable saying "I don't know" and "I was wrong." If you want a defined role with defined edges, this isn't the right seat. If you want to help build an institution from zero, it might be.

AI proficiency and partner command are standing requirements in every Vantrock seat: you work fluently with AI tools and build on the platform's dashboards, and you command the institutional partners who execute the transactional work. A supervised AI Proficiency Test is part of the process for every seat, at every level.

HOW WE WILL ASSESS

One email within two working days of applying, with two links: six fixed questions answered by AI interview – about forty minutes, the first work sample, reviewed before the CV – and the Vantrock AI Proficiency Test.

Then: The Deal-Sheet conversation: the transactions you supported, exactly which workstreams were yours, and one number you got wrong and how you found it

- A 60-minute modelling test from a data pack
- Interview with the Associate and the Principal; a conversation with the Financial Controller &
- Head of Asset Management
- References: one former reporting manager, contacted directly. Once we have your application, interview and test, we reach out with next steps. Your application is confidential – seen only by the Founder's Office and the hiring lead.

TO APPLY

Write to [email protected] with the subject line "Analyst — Investments & Asset Management — [your name]", and attach:

– Your CV. This is mandatory — a LinkedIn profile alone is not an application; we will read your LinkedIn as well.

– Your Deal Sheet — one row per closed transaction: sector, deal, location, transaction type, size, value in ₹ crore, year closed and your role. The template is attached to this brief and available on request. Closed deals only; every row will be discussed.

– Your notice period and what you would need to see to move.

– One short paragraph: the first number you check in any land model, and why that one. That paragraph matters more than the CV.

We read everything that arrives with a Deal Sheet and a paragraph — properly, not skimmed. If this sounds like your seat, write to us.

We don't hire roles. We build the platform. · Ownership, not employment. · Builders hire builders.
