• Proficient technical ability and overall corporate finance proficiency, including strong modelling skills (LBO, DCF, DDM) as well as knowledge of broader investment banking products
• Ability to engage in client and investors communications, as well as dealing with clients and other advisers
• Ability to take ownership across a transaction, with exposure to industry, country, and product teams
