About the role

  • You will shape the future of private markets for the financial services sector.
  • Your opportunity is to identify and analyze which emerging fintech startups will be tomorrow's leaders.
  • To do so, you will use data to publish actionable, digestible, differentiated, and (most importantly) forward-looking insights and research on those startups, their markets, and the implications for incumbents.

Responsibilities

  • The outputs of your work will support the strategic decision making of the world's leading companies.
  • We are what we repeatedly do. By living the principles outlined below, we will build an outstanding company and do insanely great work.
  • Go and see with your own eyes. Meet the customer, use the product, talk to the field. Great systems aren't built from afar.

Requirements

  • Must be passionate and knowledgeable about technology investment, venture capital, and early-stage innovation in financial services or banking.
  • Must be able to articulate a clear, forward-looking point of view on the sector and its companies.
  • Some startup experience is a plus, a thick skin and high tolerance for change required.

Skills

  • Bureaucracy. May the best ideas and execution win.
  • Complexity. Leaders use frameworks and systems to simplify.
  • No commitment. Leaders don't compromise just to get along. Debate. Disagree. But once a decision is made, commit.
  • Leaving what's important unsaid or undone. No "circling back."
  • Insist on excellence. Leaders set high standards and overcome obstacles. They do the kind of work they're excited to share with the world.
  • Live off the land. Leaders creatively use resources already available to them - especially AI - to execute and automate their work.
  • Good judgment. Leaders have it.
