BlackRock SMA (Separately Managed Accounts)

I just graduated and I am catching up on the recruiting process. I just heard back from a Black Rock Recruiter regarding a position called the "Separately Managed Account Portfolio Specialist. BlackRock would obviously be an amazing opportunity to start my career but I have no idea what this role entails, and the description just sounds like every other analyst job. It basically sounds like a glorified wealth management role, not that there is anything wrong with that. Just looking to get some claarification.
