Support and influence other business development initiatives such as roll-out of new tools, product launches, marketing initiatives, go to market strategy, market research and intelligence. This will involve collaborating with worldwide Mercer colleagues across our wider investment, operational, client and consulting teams. Support, guide and coach more junior colleagues, and contribute to continuous development of the team.

What you need to have:

What makes you stand out:

Experience in business development and preparing business proposals for presentation Understanding of institutional investment landscape and structures Experience with private-markets asset classes such as private equity / private debt would be particularly relevant Creative thinking with high standards of output and ability to generate concise written materials Ability to communicate complex issues in a simple and coherent manner.
