Consultant - Capital & Private Markets Practice

Electric Mind | Ignite your Career Consultant Strategy & Business Architecture – Capital & Private Markets Practice

Electric Mind’s Capital Markets Practice helps clients reimagine their operating models, data architectures, and control environments across the trade lifecycle. We partner with leading institutions to modernize their front-to-back value chain, drive operational efficiency, and enable regulatory and market-driven transformation.

The Consultant is a junior member of Electric Mind's Capital & Private Markets strategy and business architecture practice. You work directly alongside Senior Consultants and Managers on transformation and advisory engagements, contributing to operating model design, business architecture analysis, and regulatory change, building the domain expertise and advisory skills needed to progress to Senior Consultant. This is a strategy and advisory role, not a delivery or BA role: you are here to think, analyze, and advise on capital and private markets problems, with increasing independence over time.

You will be expected to contribute meaningfully from day one with a foundation of real financial services domain knowledge.
