💡 The Opportunity
A leading buy-side specialist consulting firm is expanding its Investment Operations & Platform Transformation practice across North America.
This is a chance to join a high-growth, PE-backed consultancy working at the intersection of investment operations, technology platforms, and front-to-back transformation — partnering with top-tier asset managers on their most complex change programmes.

- Large-scale transformation programmes
- Hands-on exposure to platforms such as:
