Job Description

This role is in our Funds business, specifically working with our Public Equities & Credit clients.

Public Equities & Credit is a fast-growing, fast-paced, performance driven environment.

After your initial training period, where you’ll hone your skills targeting, sourcing and screening relevant industry specialists, you’ll start directly managing your own book of business. You’ll spend much of your time on the phone, both with your clients, to unpick what they need from an expert, and with industry specialists, to find the perfect match. Ultimately, it’s about uncovering what our clients need, and digging deep to find out whether the experts we identify know the answers to the questions our clients want to ask.
