The role:

As an Associate it will be your responsibility to deliver game-changing Senior Advisors to our Private Equity clients. Your work has a direct impact on our clients’ ability to compete on landmark private equity deals across key economic sectors.

Whilst prior (internship) experience in a commercial environment, such as consulting, executive search, recruitment, expert network or sales might be helpful in demonstrating your interest in the space, this is not essential.

• Training and development: a clear roadmap for success, encompassing internal and external training sessions, targeted personal development support, a mentor programme and coaching-based management.
