What You'll Do:
  • Defining, guiding and reviewing detailed analyses performed by Analysts, including but not limited to: (i) valuation work such as DCF, trading comparable, precedent transaction and LBO analyses, (ii) financial modeling and (iii) combination and other such financial analyses in the context of an M&A transaction as may be required
  • Develop and define content for strategic meetings and client presentations, confidential information memoranda, management and board presentations and other materials for senior bankers as required;
  • Interact with senior team members and client management teams to support transaction execution including coordinating due diligence process and liaising with relevant counterparts at the client/other advisors; and provide leadership, mentorship and supervision to Analysts

What You'll Bring:
  • 3+ years of work experience in Investment Banking with significant M&A transaction experience
  • Bachelor's degree or MBA
  • Strong quantitative skills focused on financial analysis/modeling, accounting and financial theory
  • Understanding of transaction cycle and steps in the M&A process
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with ability to effectively interact with senior professionals, clients and other key stakeholders
  • Excellent command of Microsoft Suite, with an emphasis on Excel
  • A high level of attention to detail
  • The ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining a high standard of work, excel under pressure amid demanding deadlines and perform effectively in a team environment;
  • Autonomy and ability to work independently
  • High professional standards including a strong sense of personal integrity and teamwork;
