  • Due Diligence: Participate in all aspects of due diligence, including financial, tax, legal, and operational, and coordinate with external advisors and cross-functional teams across Asia, London, and New York.
  • Negotiation: Support Managing Directors and General Managers in negotiating key commercial terms, including analyzing trade-offs between alternative deal structures and handling counterparty discussions as needed.
  • Deal Execution: Support the end-to-end deal process, from initial assessment through closing.

Why it works

3×

  • 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.
