Getty is the world’s largest cultural and philanthropic organization dedicated to the visual arts. Getty’s Investment Department manages a diversified portfolio of $8.5 billion in investment assets, and we are seeking an Investment Analyst to join our team.   Our Investment Analyst Rotation Program provides the opportunity to work across different asset classes.
