• Play an active role in shaping sector and go-to-market strategy, collaborating with MDs, Directors and Associate Directors in the Team.
• Mentor and support junior team members, fostering a culture of continuous learning and professional development
• Stay abreast of industry trends and market dynamics to provide informed advice to clients.

• Minimum of 4-6 years of experience in M&A advisory, investment banking, corporate development, private equity or related fields.
