What will you do?
While we aren't actively recruiting for this specific role right now, we are proactively building a pipeline of talented candidates. We encourage you to apply so we can easily connect as soon as an opening comes up.
As an Intelligence Originator, you will help to build a proprietary, real-time dataset on European M&A transactions.
This is not a traditional reporting role. You won’t be writing news stories or chasing headlines. Instead, your mission is to cultivate a trusted network of off-record sources - including investment bankers, private equity sponsors, advisors, consultants, lenders, and lawyers - and extract proprietary intelligence on live deals.
The insights you gather will be structured into clean, machine-readable datapoints that power our platform. These include financials, process stage, valuation ranges, suitor lists, lender involvement, deal motivation, and more - forming the backbone of what our clients use to originate and analyse transactions.
You’ll be speaking with market participants in a background-only capacity, surfacing intelligence that rarely appears in the public domain. Working closely with our analyst and research teams, you’ll help convert these raw insights into structured, scalable data - fuelling client workflows and supporting better dealmaking decisions.
