  • Commercial edge: Sales, negotiation, relationship-building skills and the opportunity to develop leadership skills very early in your career
  • Client exposure: Work with leading private equity firms, hedge funds, and consultancies
  • Clear progression: Every manager started in the Associate role; promotion possible within 2 years
  • Annual Personal Development Allowance to invest in your growth
What We're Looking For

You're intellectually strong, you're ambitious, have leadership or extracurricularexperience, and have shown grit through internships, work experience, or other achievements.
Salary and Benefits
  • Total first-year salary is expected to be $77,000-$102,000 (based on average-high performance). This is inclusive of a $60,000 base salary plus an uncapped performance bonus accessible after your first month.
  • Enjoy comprehensive benefits including health, dental, vision, 401K matching, and more.
