Role: Consultant - Global Banking and Brokerage
University Attended: Aston University
FactSet allows me to bring my technical skills and interest in working into the Finance industry together. This, coupled alongside the role of a consultant gives me maximum exposure to all different aspects of the industry alongside different seniority levels; right from the junior analysts to senior directors.
I believe you would find it difficult to find a job whereby you are working in tandem with COOs, Senior Executives and Managing Directors of some of the world’s largest investment banks within 6 months of starting your first job.
You are being exposed to the key personnel within the Finance industry and really enable you to make an impact on their workflows – this really empowers yourself as an individual. However, none of this measure up to your fellow colleagues at FactSet.
The workforce is young, vibrant and of high calibre – whilst you get to learn a lot from dealing with clients there is much inspiration to be drawn from your colleagues.
To add to this they also sponsor you for the CFA programme if you wish to sit it.
