About Cohen & Company Capital Markets:

Cohen & Company Capital Markets ("CCM") was established in 2021 with a firm commitment to providing expertise to clients navigating challenging markets and complex transactions. In a cycle marked by historically difficult capital markets, including the most formidable IPO and equity capital market conditions in recent memory, we have emerged as one of the fastest-growing boutique investment banks on Wall Street. Our team was founded on the belief that traditional bulge-bracket banks and elite boutiques lacked coverage for emerging products and industries. As we drive this mission forward, our new team members will play a crucial role in our continued success.

We advise leading and emerging companies across sectors to address strategic and financial opportunities. We leverage a strong reputation, a broad network and superior execution to serve our clients’ interests first and always.

We are looking for an outstanding capital markets analyst to join our growing team in New York City. Our bankers at all levels must be prepared to lead transactions and drive our continued impressive growth as we disrupt the landscape of Investment Banking. In the last 12 months, we have advised more companies going public in the US public markets than any other bank on Wall Street through our leadership in SPAC advisory.

CCM was the leading advisor in the de-SPAC market for the second year in a row. In 2023 CCM advised on twenty-nine announced or closed de-SPAC deals, representing nearly $16 billion in M&A volume, amounting to an industry leading 28% market share in SPAC advisory. Additionally, CCM was the most active advisor when including both IPO issuance and de-SPAC advisory in 2023 and was also an advisor in over 100 SPAC extensions, including many cashless extensions. Most recent announcements include acting as the sole advisor to SK Growth Opportunities merger with Webull ($7.3B EV) and Sizzle Acquisition Corp. merger with Critical Metals Corp ($838M EV / $10M PIPE). The momentum has continued into 2024 with 12 closed de-SPAC deals and announcement of 5 more.

Compensation will be commensurate with comparable top elite boutique investment banking franchises. Experienced Analysts will be expected to immediately contribute and lead multiple live deals and contribute to our rapid growth and success as we build a top-tier investment banking franchise.

The CCM team benefits from significant transaction experience and domain expertise. The firm has established a record of accomplishment executing complex and transformational transactions across Technology, Cyber, Blockchain, Autotech, LifeSciences, Consumer and other emerging, high-growth verticals. CCM offers a full suite of services including strategic advisory, capital markets advisory, SPAC advisory and merchant banking. CCM has quickly experienced significant success, with over 80 announced and closed transactions since its founding in 2021.
