We are a high-performing business with an extremely strong culture of inclusivity, diversity and teamwork. We also provide generous study-support packages (e.g. CFA) and are passionate about both career development and work-life balance
We will count on you to:
- Develop in-depth knowledge of Mercer's investment research and client solutions, in order to explain and communicate to colleagues and prospective clients
- Work closely with sales and commercial leadership on all aspects of sales and business development activities, and demonstrate ownership of key sales deliverables including new business proposals, pitch material and any areas of specialist expertise that you may be assigned to
- Support and influence other business development initiatives such as roll-out of new tools, product launches, marketing initiatives, go to market strategy, market research and intelligence. This will involve collaborating with worldwide Mercer colleagues across our wider investment, operational, client and consulting teams
- Support, guide and coach more junior colleagues, and contribute to continuous development of the team
What is in it for you:
- Competitive Benefits Package including: 25 days annual leave, up to 4 days of flexible bank holidays, excellent pension contributions, private medical cover, life assurance, income protection, employee assistance program, plus a range of flexible benefits including the option to buy or sell up to 5 days holiday per year, cycle to work, dental insurance, health assessments plus many more
- An intellectually challenging, fun, and supportive environment with people who are invested in your growth and development
What you need to have:
- Third-level qualification with a strong academic track record and strong interest in capital markets and investment industry (CFA and actuarial candidates welcome)
- Energy, proactivity and attention to detail
- Ability to manage multiple projects, stakeholders and deliverables simultaneously
- Proven team player characteristics and interpersonal skills
- Strong IT skills (PowerPoint, Excel, Word with ability to embrace other tools)
What makes you stand out:
- Experience in business development and preparing business proposals for presentation
- Understanding of institutional investment landscape and structures, particularly private-markets investing such as private equity / private debt
- Creative thinking with high standards of output and ability to generate concise written materials
- Ability to communicate complex issues in a simple and coherent manner
