The posting

We are looking for Fellows starting in April 2027 for 3 to 6 months.

Advise. Invest. Build. Meet ALAIKA — a new kind of Financial Services firm — globally scaling, headquartered in Munich. The work is hard. The bar is high. Convince during your Fellowship and earn the opportunity to join ALAIKA full-time after graduation, with partner-track ambition from day one.

Stop reading if any of these describe you:

  • Drive. You need someone to fire the starting gun → We only hire people who can prove they are intrinsically driven and execute.
  • Ownership. You spot the problem and walk it to your boss → We fall in love with problems. Own them. Solve them. Ship solutions.
  • Speed. Slow is your default → Speed compounds. Be smart and brave enough to select 80/20 in the right way.
  • Mindset. "Not possible" is part of your vocabulary → We hire people who always find a way.

Still there? Then ALAIKA might be for you.

At ALAIKA, our vision is to build the future of Financial Services with three brands under one roof — Advisory (Strategy Consulting), Capital (Private Equity), Building (Company Builder). Right now, we are in the midst of building our trojan horse ALAIKA Advisory.

The ambition: building the leading Financial-Services-specific entrepreneurial holding — Fortune 500 access, PE discipline, Silicon Valley technology-depth and thinking. Three networks that compound and multiply.

  • One industry. Financial Services. Nothing else.
  • One focus. The intersection of business and technology — across Strategic Transformations, AI & Data Intelligence, and Cybersecurity.
  • One goal. Being the go-to partner for the world's leading Fortune 500 financial services companies — and the ones we might help build into that.

Founded in October 2022 by Johanna von Geyr (build-up and led Financial Services Practice for a NASDAQ-listed strategy consultancy) and Harald Braunstein (serial entrepreneur with exits incl. IPO), we bring together deep functional domain expertise and networks in global Financial Services, with a proven track record in building, scaling, and investing in leading software product companies.

The role and what you will work on

  • Advise. Take on the most pressing strategic and technology challenges of the world’s leading financial services companies — across Strategy, Data & AI, and Cyber. In the room with decision-makers from day one.
  • Own. Own your deliverables end-to-end. You are not support staff for the seniors.
  • Learn. Build the analytical, interpersonal, and business skills that define exceptional consultants. Work alongside colleagues of all levels, receive close coaching, and learn how high-stakes advisory work is done in practice.
  • Build. We are scaling, with real building left to do — IP, processes, go-to-market, strategy. You do not just deliver client work; you co-build the firm. That is not a slogan — it is your Tuesday.

When you are a fit

“Show me an athlete who did well academically. An athlete because they know what it takes to win and they have had to experience loss.”

— Kenneth C. Griffin, Founder of Citadel

You will work alongside intrinsically driven people chasing an uncapped career — people who do "what it takes". You fear "being one more number stuck in middle management".

Your goal is to make it to the top: at ALAIKA itself, at a leading investment or financial services firm, or in a company you build yourself — ALAIKA can help with that too.

  • Book-smart. Strong academic foundation. Think in structures, not gut feel.
  • Street-smart. Read the room fast. Prioritise ruthlessly. Grasp commercial reality.
  • People-smart. Communicate with precision — clear, direct, persuasive. Build trust across functions and seniority.
  • Athlete performance mindset. High aspirations. Grit. Learn faster than the environment changes.
  • Entrepreneurial guts. Self-confident achiever. Act first, apologise later — speed is everything. Take full ownership of work normally reserved for far more senior profiles.

What you bring

  • Background. Currently studying or graduated, top 10% of your class at a top-tier university. Analytical field — CS, Math, Physics, Finance, or equivalent rigour. Minimum 4th Bachelor semester.
  • Experience. Previous experience as a working student or intern in a high-pressure, results-driven environment — top strategy consultancy, PE/VC-backed company, fast-growing tech, or demanding corporate financial services role. Hands-on Data & AI experience, as well as financial services experience, is a plus.
  • Leadership. You have led — a team, a club, a project, a cause. We hire people who make things happen.
  • Analytical edge. Data-driven by default. Leverage data to drive decisions, not just decorate slides.
  • Languages. Fluent in English and German. Additional languages are a plus.

Why join ALAIKA

  • Your launchpad. Convince during your Fellowship and earn a full-time offer after graduation — with partner-track ambition from day one.
  • Stellar Network. Shoulder-to-shoulder with financial services executives running today’s giants and the founders + investors building tomorrow’s.
  • Offices. Munich and Barcelona. More coming.

Plus: the essentials done right — EGYM Wellpass, bike leasing, a kitchen stocked with healthy food and team events worth showing up for: Oktoberfest, team dinners, and more.

Advise the leaders. Build what comes next. Invest in the future of Financial Services.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
