The roles of analysts and summer interns
Analysts at Lazard possess a passion for
business and a genuine interest in the
investment-banking sector, particularly
in relation to mergers and acquisitions. In
addition, they demonstrate well-developed
communication and interpersonal skills
together with a sense of individualism and
identity. Their primary purpose is to support
transaction teams by performing financial
and statistical analysis, conducting research,
preparing client presentations and assisting
in due diligence efforts. Lazard's unique
structure provides analysts with exposure
to senior bankers and client representatives
from day one.
The summer interns complete a 7 day
comprehensive training programme before
joining the banking teams where they receive
first hand, in-depth knowledge of a corporate
finance business and gain practical experience
of the work of an analyst.
Training and development
As our clients expect a lot of us, we must ask
a lot of you. We want you to succeed. We have
designed an extensive training programme that
will provide you with a sound understanding
of the technical aspects of your role. The
first programme, which is attended by new
colleagues from across Europe, includes
carefully designed residential courses, master
classes led by practising bankers and on-the-job coaching by team colleagues. As
your career progresses, at least twice a year
as part of our performance appraisal we will
discuss your training and development needs
with you. In addition to courses, you will be
expected to keep up-to-date with regulatory
and market developments and to take every
opportunity to learn from more experienced
team members on each assignment.
Candidates will possess a passion for business
and a genuine interest in investment banking,
along with well-developed interpersonal skills
and a sense of individualism and identity. A
strong academic track record is a must. Most
importantly, we want individuals with the
commitment and flair to succeed within our
organisation. Apply online today at outlink_logged('http://www.lazard.com/apply','www.lazard.com/apply','','target="_new"','169','text');
