Role Overview

As a Junior Business Analyst, you will engage in technically reconstructing financial and operational models for a significant infrastructure and technology client. Your day-to-day assignments involve dissecting complex business frameworks into fundamental elements, rebuilding spreadsheets directly from primary data, composing detailed written justifications for any changes, and playing both the roles of creator and critical reviewer on projects. Additionally, auditing invoice ledgers to validate assumptions and sustaining a direct communication line with clients to clarify model logic are key responsibilities.

• Fully rebuild spreadsheets and financial documentation using primary source evidence.
• Compose clear and detailed arguments supporting all modifications to analytical models.
• Take on the builder role by drafting initial analyses for some engagements.
• Serve as the challenger on other assignments by identifying and addressing logical inconsistencies in colleague deliverables.
• Analyze invoice ledgers to ensure accuracy in pricing and cost assumptions.
• Provide direct client support by explaining the rationale behind the final analytical files.

• Adeptness at navigating and organizing complex spreadsheets effectively.
• Strong written communication skills, able to convey technical ideas in accessible language.
• Genuine curiosity about business operations and profit mechanics.
• Discipline for independent work within a fully remote setup.
• Openness to constructive critique and capability to defend your analyses based on evidence.
• Basic experience with data analysis tools or strong enthusiasm to acquire such skills.

The firm values deep, focused work over unnecessary corporate formalities. Meetings only occur as scheduled, and there are no ongoing retainers. The remote structure grants autonomy over working conditions and demands a culture of honest, ego-free critique through the builder and challenger model, aiming to reach data-driven truths instead of debates. Completed projects are delivered back to clients, reconstructed from original documents and supported by rigorous written justification.
