This role is primarily focused on analyzing qualitative factors and does not involve financial modeling or valuation. Intelligence projects are completed using a combination of internet research, AI prompts, and private databases (such as Capital IQ and Grata). While it has the potential to be client-facing, it is mainly an internal role.
Responsibilities:
• Understanding a client’s acquisition strategy and then identifying suitable prospects that fit within that strategy.
• Qualifying prospects based on size, service lines, potential legal issues, ownership structure, and other pertinent information necessary to paint a larger picture of how that company would fit within the client’s company.
• Investigating “rabbit holes” that might give specific details about a particular prospect.
• Creating detailed and easily readable research packets to disseminate to senior members of the team or executives at one of our client companies.
• Performing industry-wide or macro-economic analysis to identify tangential opportunities that our clients may not be considering.
• Finding and qualifying potential buyers for sell-side clients, including strategic,
financial, and family-office buyers.
• Reporting to and collaborating with members of other teams within the firm including senior leadership, business development, deal analysis and execution, and other members of the intelligence team.
Qualifications:
• 2-4 years of experience in an analytical-type role that involves pulling together information and then using that information to make a strategic decision to do something or not to do something. While not necessarily required, having this work focused on finance is a significant plus.
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, or a related field.
• Experience using Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.
• Experience using AI models such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity to identify information, stress-test that information, and then arrange that information into an acceptable format.
• While not required, exposure to construction, power generation, engineering, or data centers is a significant plus.
• Be able to think strategically to actively assess how well a prospect, idea, or tactic fits in with the bigger picture, which may change quickly.
• Strong ability to retain and recall information and synthesize new data with old to drive decision-making.
• Candidate should be able to clearly and coherently articulate ideas, information, and suggestions to coworkers and clients.
• The individual should be a detail-oriented worker who can work autonomously to manage their workload and meet deadlines.
