Since the team was established in 2018, it has had a tremendously successful track record and won The Deal Award for best “Consumer, Retail, F&B Advisory Franchise” in both 2018 and 2019. Clients include companies from the largest global conglomerates to small, high growth, direct to consumer companies and leading financial sponsors, which enables team members to work on a wide variety of transactions (buysides, sellsides, structured transactions, equity raises, SPACs, restructuring, etc.).
What is the position? Evercore seeks to hire a Senior Associate/VP for its Consumer & Retail Advisory group located in New York, NY.
Primary Responsibilities: Evercore’s differentiated approach to advisory provides Associates/Vice Presidents with the ability to work closely with senior bankers on industry-transforming, multi-billion dollar transactions around the world. The small transaction team structure creates a strong platform for Associates/Vice Presidents to learn investment banking and assume high levels of responsibility at early stages of their careers. As part of the team, the Associate/Vice President will have the opportunity to work on a variety of strategic advisory assignments including: sellside and buyside M&A engagements; activism and raid defense; divestitures and spin-off engagements; equity and equity-linked capital-raising; special committee engagements; debt and restructuring advisory and, more broadly, evaluation of strategic alternatives.
Specific Qualifications: Candidates must have a strong interest in investment banking with solid quantitative and analytical skills, as well the ability to think broadly about a range of strategic issues confronting the firm’s clients. Knowledge of accounting, valuation, finance, and business strategy is a must. Responsibilities for an Associate/Vice President include management and execution of live transactions, assistance with new business development, and fostering of client relationships, with a particular focus on managing analysts and associates, overseeing financial and valuation analysis, resolving complex financial and accounting issues, performing industry and competitive analysis, and preparing client presentation materials.
Evercore offers highly qualified Associates/Vice Presidents the chance to advance more rapidly and take on more responsibility than in traditional bulge-bracket firms, exposure to blue-chip clients, and the chance to be part of rapidly growing, highly regarded firm and team.
