Investment Banking Analyst

We’re working with one of the top independent advisory firms (very much in that Centerview / Evercore tier) that’s putting together a small, selective group of 2024–2025 grads who started their careers in strategy consulting who would like to restart their careers in this unique flavor of strategic advisory that combines " the best of McKinsey with the best of Goldman M&A ". Ideal candidates are currently working at Bain, BCG or McKinsey and feeling the pressure of what AI is doing to the consulting sector or simply looking to make this switch. THIS ROLE IS NOT ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FROM 2026 GRADS The idea is basically a structured “on-ramp” into strategic M&A advisory for people who went into consulting, but have the right kind of analytical background and want to reposition toward a long‑term advisory career. What makes this stand out: It’s a true advisory platform —a lot more strategic / thinking-oriented vs. pure execution They’re being very intentional about who they hire , so it’s a small group, not a broad program You get exposure that’s much closer to senior bankers than what you’d typically expect early on Also important (since everyone asks about it): They’re very aware of the “restart” dynamic and comp is structured to make the move attractive financially First‑year pay is competitive with what you’d expect as a 2nd year in most bulge brackets. There’s a lot more nuance to how they’re thinking about this, but high level it’s a pretty rare chance to reset into M&A the “right” way at a top platform. #J-18808-Ljbffr
