Stellenbeschreibung

We are looking for new joiners into our Consultingand PrivateMarketsteams.

Private Markets - 

In a nutshell, our private markets clients invest in companies with the intention of increasing the value of their stake down the line. The insights they get through our experts and content become the basis of their decision to invest in opportunities, or to pass on them.

Consulting - 

Our consulting clients work on behalf of large companies (e.g. Fortune 500’s) or institutional investors and support them by doing deep dive research to provide guidance on their corporate strategy or investment decisions. The insights they get through our experts and content are the backbone of the recommendations they deliver to their clients.

Associate

As an Associate you’ll have opportunities to work with the sharpest minds in private market funds and consulting firms. They will rely on you for access to the most relevant experts and content, which you are responsible for identifying and recommending to them. To do so you'll gather a unique set of commercial skills that will help you deliver extraordinary results for both clients and experts, and grow professionally. The projects can be complex, but the impact is meaningful - every day you will get to hear directly from your clients, experts and colleagues about the difference you have made.

The hats you will wear:

• 
  Problem solver: A client can challenge you with any company name and questions: you’ll break down an industry within minutes, suggest who they should speak with and what they should read.

In practice: you will search for relevant content and vet experts to support your clients at each stage of their research.You will not give them investment advice. There will be times where we need to think outside the box and offer solutions that bridges their knowledge gaps, quickly.

• 
  Strongcommunicator:We operate as one team, both within your individual team and within the Third Bridge business at large. One day, you will be leading the charge, and another you’ll be supporting your peers.

In practice: you will be asked to train and develop the people around you, both on your team and those you’re working with on client requests. You will also receive lots of hands-on training and coaching yourself. We are a feedback-centric culture, and value effective communication.

• 
  Businessdeveloper:understand the drivers of profitable revenue and find your path to grow it. Work with your team to execute strategies for the accounts you are responsible for.

In practice: on every project, you will have an opportunity to drive performance by delivering on client requests. You will also be calling clients who have never used our services to build relationships and get business from them.

Areas that play to your strengths:

• 
  Business fluent in German (written and oral - Level C1 and above).


• You must be able to deliver high quality work on a deadline. You will be working on lots of active workstreams simultaneously, but that doesn’t scare you - in fact it excites you, and you’re confident in your ability to multitask and remain organised. Our clients are under a lot of pressure to make decisions fast, but you stay calm and get things done. If at times your client asks you for help out of hours, or your expert is in a different time zone, you strive to support - your hours vary according to the client project you are involved in, but you prefer that to a routine job. There is no typical week as a Third Bridge Associate.


• The Founder’s Mentality completely resonates with you, as this approach is part of our DNA. You’re an independent thinker who feels energised by the freedom Associates have to come up with the best solutions for their clients, because you’re endlessly curious and often question the way things are done. As long as you are eager to learn, we’ll provide you with the resources and coaching you need as you bring value to your clients and experts.  


• You’re a clear communicator who can create the right narrative to share your ideas with a wide range of people, such as introducing our products and services to new clients and experts. You find that conversations often lead to strong relationships with people because you easily connect. You always look for the most efficient way to get things done, rather than the path of least resistance - for example you pick up the phone to get an answer to your questions straight away, rather than send an email and wait for a reply. Cold calling doesn’t phase you - what matters to you is to get results, and fast. 


• Your attitude is to roll up your sleeves and you enjoy being in the thick of the action. It matters a great deal to you to understand how your performance ranks against your own potential and against others, so you continuously seek feedback to make sure you can be at the top of your game. One of your clients preferring a competitor over you is not an acceptable state of affairs for you - you’re relentless in getting the data points you need to adjust your approach until you are their number one. With the soft skills gained on the job (hard skills are getting displaced by machines), you aspire to a future as a high EQ business leader.

What our people love about being Associates:

• Being surrounded by people they not only enjoy working with, but who also challenge and support them


• Partnering first hand with the leading investors and consultants in the world and being privy to their thought process with all the learning this leads to 


• Building their career in business on a foundation of problem-solving, communication and commercial skills


• Living by “great minds think differently” in a diverse and inclusive team.
