published - Mon, 28 Sep 2026Job SummaryTilted is looking for an Investment & Portfolio Analyst to run the numbers behind one of the UK's largest theatre investment portfolios β€” modelling new shows from the producer's pack, keeping every model, the database and the dashboard current, and owning the monthly report to investors. Job DescriptionTilted is a production company founded by producer and director Sam Hodges, making new work across theatre, live podcasts and film - recent productions include Shadowlands, Uncanny: Fear of the Dark, Every Brilliant Thing and Giant. With tech entrepreneur and investor Simon Nixon, Tilted also runs one of the UK's largest and most active theatre investment portfolios: over 100 productions backed in five years across the West End, Broadway, touring and international markets. We're building an investment process that is more systematic and more scalable - better data, proper portfolio tracking, less manual work, and automation and AI where they help. Nobody in theatre has a settled way of doing this yet; this role is at the centre of how we do it. You will own the operational engine of the portfolio: modelling each investment opportunity from the producer's pack, keeping every model, the database and the vintage files accurate and current, tracking each show against forecast, overseeing investment cashflows, and producing the monthly and quarterly reporting that investment decisions rest on. You will also look after the tools behind the numbers - an investment database, a dashboard and a modelling app, much of it finessed with AI - and use AI in your day-to-day work. Once the cycles are running well, we expect the role to grow into helping shape how Tilted makes its strategic investment decisions, using the data you keep. Producers' information is confidential and commercially sensitive. Our AI tools run within Tilted's own systems, under business terms that do not allow training on our data; producers' figures are never put into public or consumer AI services. Keeping it that way is part of the job.

You build and audit models confidently - structured layouts, lookups, scenario logic, error-checking - and you can find the mistake in someone else's spreadsheet. Financial literacy. You understand a P&L, cash flow, break-even and return on investment, and can explain them plainly to someone who does not. Accuracy and attention to detail. You reconcile and check, and you notice when a number does not tie back. Process and reliability.

You can run a recurring cycle to a calendar, chase inputs from busy people, and deliver on the date. Clear writing. You can turn analysis into a short, well-organised written recommendation. Discretion. You are comfortable holding confidential commercial information and understand why it matters. Self-direction. You are happy working in a small team, largely managing your own workload, and asking for what you need.

Build and maintain the models for prospective investments - cashflow, recoupment, IRR and scenario analysis - identify the key risks, assumptions and commercial drivers in each opportunity, and liaise with producers and third parties to get the inputs right. Prepare a clear written recommendation for each opportunity for the investment committee: the case, the risks, the return scenarios and the recommended position. Maintain and refine the templates and the assumptions behind them as the portfolio and the market change.
