About Us

We’re one of Canada’s largest pension investors, with CAD$320.6 billion of net assets as of March 31, 2026. We invest funds for the pension plans of the federal public service, the Canadian Forces, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Reserve Force. Headquartered in Ottawa, PSP Investments has its principal business office in Montréal and offices in Current York, London and Hong Kong. Capturing and leading complex global investments requires us to work as one to seize valuable opportunities, in close collaboration with some of the world’s top companies. At PSP Investments, you’ll join a team of motivated and engaged professionals, dedicated to propelling our organization further than ever before. At PSP, three values guide our day-to-day work: we embody the mission by aligning the way we work with the needs and expectations of the people we serve; we excel together by joining forces to achieve exceptional results; we are accountable by demonstrating our intentions through our actions.

About The Team

Global Alpha’s primary objective is to generate excess return by targeting persistent and exploitable inefficiencies within capital markets. This is achieved through the development of specialized strategies across Active Equities and Alpha Alternatives. Excess return is pursued within a disciplined, risk-adjusted framework, primarily through security selection in diversified portfolios. Alternative investments such as hedge funds play a critical role in enhancing portfolio efficiency by improving the risk-return profile and providing diversification through exposure to strategies less correlated with the economy and with public markets.



To broaden its capabilities, Global Alpha also partners with external managers who complement internal expertise. Global Alpha’s Sustainability & Active Ownership function, which sits within Active Equities, provides governance and sustainability expertise and support across Global Alpha’s investment strategies. It also responsible for providing sustainability diligence and active ownership services to PSP’s entire public markets portfolio.

- Analyze selected votes,

- Conduct governance and sustainability due diligence across companies, deals, and funds in the public markets portfolio, assessing material environmental, social, and governance factors to inform investment and stewardship decisions

- Maintain and update internal procedures and methodologies to keep the team's practices well-organized and aligned with best practice, and act as the team's point of contact with reporting, data, and operations colleagues, ensuring information flows smoothly and requests are handled promptly and accurately

The final title will be calibrated based on experience; the expectations above remain the same.

We expect analysts to be fluent with large language models and modern AI research tools, and to use them regularly, within PSP’s governance and confidentiality standards, to automate workflows, interrogate reports, analyze data, and synthesize research in hours rather than days.
