Our family culture

Our boutique consultancy was founded in 2004, but it has retained its strong family spirit. Based on a country estate on the outskirts of London, the Management & Business Development Office is home to C-level executives sitting in the same room as the Research and Sales Teams. This makes it the perfect environment for new graduates as it offers unique mentorship opportunities, including oversight from an experienced FinTech CEO.

Pursuing these lines of business will provide exposure to decision-makers in some of the top financial institutions around the world including Tier-1 Investment Banks, Development Banks and Asset Managers.

The ideal candidate 

We are looking for hard-working and driven problem solvers.
