You’ll be working as part of a globally distributed team, collaborating with specialists across time zones. The right candidate would bring technical depth, business context, and the ability to communicate insights with both clients and internal teams.

Ideal but Not Required:

Fluency in French or German is a strong bonus as it will be advantageous for future client engagements.
