About this role
ASSOCIATE
An operator who reasons from first principles and owns the outcome, not the task.
WHAT YOU WILL DO HERE - THE ROLE
You will sit in a team of two or three and own a workstream end-to-end on live promoter mandates. A typical engagement runs the full arc: read the business, find the real problems, trace the root causes, prioritize what to fix, build solutions, model outcomes, draw the plan, make it executable and then stay in the room till numbers move. You will work across all three of the firm's levers at once, not as one silo, which is how you compound your capabilities faster here.
WHAT YOU WILL WORK ON - THE GET MODEL
~35% of time
GROWTH
- Market entry, new formats, go-to-market design
- Growth diagnostics and demand-side analysis
- Operating model and unit-economics for scale
- Business roadmap and scenario planning
~20% of time
EFFICIENCY
- Strategic finance offices and management reporting
- Margin, cost and performance-improvement
- Structuring, restructuring and reorganization
- Frameworks, tools and control systems
~25% of time
TRANSACTIONS
- Financial models, IMs and investor collateral
- Valuation and benchmarking against comparables
- Capital structuring and fundraise readiness
- M&A support, diligence and synergy analysis
WHAT YOU NEED TO HAVE - THE EDGE
MUST HAVE
- Min of 2-3 years of delivery at MBB, Big 4, EY-P, A&M/Top boutique / IB
- First-principles reasoning, not template-driven thinking
- Owned a workstream or a number end-to-end, not just deckouts
- Ran a P&L, a practice, a 0-to-1 build or a side venture
- A secondment or operating stint inside a client
- Founder's office, chief of staff or deal exposure
QUALIFICATION
- CA, CFA, CIMA, ACCA, CPA or MBA / MS, top-tier school
- Strong Excel, PowerPoint and written communication
- Self-starter; commits to Bengaluru, in-office and travel
WHY A SEAT AT THE TABLE IS RARE
- Hire rate of 3 in 2,000 applicants historically.
- Real promoters and four-lever problems most professionals never touch together in a career.
- Unfettered founder & eco-system access.
- Ownership of a number from month three.
- Opportunity to lead and see transformation happen.
- A small senior team where your work is seen.
- A hand in building the firm of the future itself.
