Focusing on an asset type allows our Associates to speak our clients' language and intricately understand how they operate.QualificationsAreas that play to your strengths:
  • You must be able to deliver high quality work on a deadline. You will be working on lots of active workstreams simultaneously, but that doesn't scare you - in fact it excites you, and you're confident in your ability to multitask and remain organised. Private equity investors are under a lot of pressure to make decisions fast, but you stay calm and get things done. If at times your client asks you for help out of hours, or your expert is in a different time zone, you strive to support - your hours vary according to the client project you are involved in, but you prefer that to a routine job. There is no typical week as a Third Bridge Associate.
  • The
completely resonates with you, as this approach is part of our DNA. You're an independent thinker who feels energised by the freedom Associates have to come up with the best solutions for their clients, because you're endlessly curious and often question the way things are done. As long as you are eager to learn, we'll provide you with the resources and coaching you need as you bring value to your clients and experts. * You're a clear communicator who can create the right narrative to share your ideas with a wide range of people, such as introducing our products and services to new clients and experts. You find that conversations often lead to strong relationships with people because you easily connect. You always look for the most efficient way to get things done, rather than the path of least resistance - for example you pick up the phone to get an answer to your questions straight away, rather than send an email and wait for a reply. Cold calling doesn't phase you - what matters to you is to get results, and fast.Your attitude is to roll up your sleeves and you enjoy being in the thick of the action. It matters a great deal to you to understand how your performance ranks against your own potential and against others, so you continuously seek feedback to make sure you can be at the top of your game. One of your clients preferring a competitor over you is not an acceptable state of affairs for you - you're relentless in getting the data points you need to adjust your approach until you are their number one. With the soft skills gained on the job (hard skills are getting displaced by machines), you aspire to a future as a high EQ business leader.Additional InformationWhat our people love about being Associates in PE Clients Team:
