The Analyst Program

Our full-time analyst program is designed to cultivate the quantitative and qualitative skills necessary to excel in an investment banking career and as a future executive.

You will be given unparalleled exposure and opportunities, including the chance to work on numerous transactions at the start of your career, with the only constraint on your role being your own capacity, rather than your rank level. As a result, our team members achieve accelerated career growth. You will be recognized and rewarded for your individual performance within a close-knit team and meritocratic culture. The only constraint on your role, responsibilities, and compensation will be your own performance.
