A top tier consulting group is looking to hire someone with good markets knowledge to work on strategic projects with top investment banks. You will be delivering for Heads of Sales, Trading and Strategy at major banks, looking at their data strategy, market alignment and executing benchmarking projects.
This would suit someone looking to pivot from a role in Markets in a bank who has a good all-round skilllset to present to senior stakeholders in banks and be comfortable working with data. It would also be suitable for someone from another top tier consulting firm or data strategy/vendor business.
We are looking for:
1. Strong markets knowledge and a passion for the markets, ideally with a cross-product view though we are open to those with a more narrow focus and high potential to grow quickly
2. Ability to work with large data sets, though we are not looking for a 'data expert' - only someone comfortable with data who can apply it strategically
3. Agility - this team also works on pure strategy projects and there will be a need for the individual to jump into this work when needed; we see a 30:70 split between Strategy and data/analytics work
4. Client-facing skills - you will need to present your findings to senior stakeholders in banks, often coming up with a creative message and the 'strategic view' from the data you are looking at
3-4 days in the offic per week is the minimum for this role, near Bank station.
