Anyone want to provide some insight as to what this job title really means? Can't really find anything about it online, but wanted to see if any of y'all have heard of the title.
The description for their production analyst jobs are very vague. If you want to look yourself, go to CBRE's job listing website search for "Production Analyst" (I can't post links yet).
If someone has heard of the title, any guesses as to: 1. What the responsibilities would be 2. What the growth opportunities would be 3. How pay is determined/a hint as to what the starting sal could be.
Thanks fam
The answer to #1 and #2 is the same as a debt analyst at HFF or Eastdil. Not sure about comp but I imagine it would be similar to an analyst at HFF (low base high bonus).
I work at CBRE in the DSF group and sit next to a few production analysts. It's different than the role at a place like HFF because you'd only be responsible for supporting one or two producers, vs. HFF where all debt analysts support all producers.
Main responsibilities would be sizing up loans for your producers, reviewing due diligence, liaising with clientele, reviewing third party reports, etc. I would say the opportunity is completely dependent on who you're working for- could be a great gig, could be a shitty one. I think the position sets you up well to become an originator yourself or perhaps to work for a lender.
As for pay, I think most of what you make is salaried and is based on your level of experience. Again, depending on who you work for, they may tip you out on the fees they earn, but it is not mandated.
Whats the DSF group? What does it do and stand for?
Debt and structured finance, it's all in the name
Production analysts work on preliminary loan analysis, they run rough property screens and produce loan quotes to win deals. Once the deal is won the production analysts hand the deal off to the underwriters.
Basically the analyst does ALL the shit work; the Producer gets to have all the fun and make all the money. Why? Because the producer earned it and the analyst has yet to. The most important thing is getting on a good team, good firm in a decent market. Don't ever ask "when can I be a producer?" Just build up your skills and start hustling when you think you're ready to run with the big dogs.
I'm curious of what you would consider a good team/market?
market/location Good team- Sr guy, mid-level/jr guy, you/analyst; some might have a pit of analysts and producers, which can be good for developing technical skill. I've done both set ups. The dedicated team helped me meet good people and got me into good events. It all depends.
