You’ll work closely with analysts, senior bankers, clients, lawyers, accountants, and advisors to ensure transactions move forward accurately and on schedule.

If you thrive in fast-paced deal environments and can balance rigorous financial analysis with strong execution, this role is a strong fit.

Pitch books, CIMs, and investor materials delivered on time
Smooth management of due diligence and transaction workstreams
Strong quality control across analyst deliverables
Positive feedback from clients and senior bankers
Multiple live transactions managed effectively without sacrificing accuracy

What a Typical Day Looks Like

You may start by updating a valuation model with new client financials, then review analyst work before preparing materials for an upcoming client meeting.

Throughout the day, you’ll coordinate due diligence requests, update data rooms, conduct market research, refine a CIM or pitch book, and communicate with advisors and client stakeholders.

In short: you help drive transactions from financial analysis through execution while ensuring senior bankers and clients can rely on the accuracy and quality of every deliverable.

Direct exposure to live M&A and capital raising transactions
Advanced financial modeling and valuation experience
High visibility with senior bankers and clients
Opportunity to work across multiple industries and transaction types
