• Lead or support client meetings, presenting findings and proposed solutions.
• Create and manage project plans, ensuring tasks are prioritised and assigned appropriately.
• Own business requirements, specifications, prototypes, and testing activities.
• Maintain accurate project documentation including risks, issues, actions, and meeting notes.
• Delegate tasks to junior analysts or interns when appropriate, setting clear expectations.
• Support project management tasks such as updates to the engagement lead, resourcing input, and forecasting.
• Prepare materials for senior stakeholder meetings, including Steering Committees.
• Contribute to internal knowledge sharing and analyst forums.
• Work across multiple client engagements simultaneously, managing your time effectively.
• Use the Microsoft suite (Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Visio) to produce polished, client-ready materials.

What We’re Looking For

• Experience or strong interest in private equity operations (essential).
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and organisational skills.
• Ability to understand complex processes and translate them into clear documentation.
• Confident communicator with the ability to engage senior stakeholders.
• Proactive mindset and willingness to take ownership of tasks.
• Ability to work across several projects simultaneously.
• Collaborative and supportive team player with a desire to mentor others.
• Working knowledge of Excel, PowerPoint, and other MS tools (Visio desirable).
• Understanding of data concepts (SQL, DAX, Power BI) is advantageous but not essential.

Why Join Us?

You’ll be part of a team that values people, encourages learning, and supports you to develop both professionally and personally.
