Job Description:

We are currently recruiting for a part-time researcher position for a long-standing PE client of ours. Central London based, and with a high-quality existing team in place, this is a great firm to be part and an exciting opportunity offering huge flexibility for the right person.

A research heavy position, the client is looking for a self-motivated person with high attention to detail and strong communication skills. The client is happy for this person to work predominantly remotely, so someone trustworthy and reliable with a proven track record of success in previous roles is essential. This is likely to be 2 days a week and the client is happy for someone to spread the workload across the week in any way they see fit as long as the work is completed to a high standard. The candidate will undertake specific research tasks/mandates on a weekly basis and will be required to attend one meeting a week (virtually) to ascertain what their focus for that week will be. There is not enough work to sustain someone for 5 days a week, hence the need for a part-time candidate. This will be a permanent contract with the company, so long-term availability and a genuine long-term desire for part time work for the foreseeable is essential.

Previous professional services experience is preferred and strong MS office/Excel skills too. More than anything the client is looking for a mature, credible and polished communicator with sound commercial judgement and someone for whom this role makes sense with their existing life/workload that they can trust to self-motivate.

London centric candidates preferred, as they will be required to come to the office ad-hoc. An amazing opportunity for part time candidates. Professional services careers/previous researcher/analyst style roles v. useful | £45k ProRata
