Invest. Build. Meet ALAIKA — a new kind of Financial Services firm — globally scaling, headquartered in Munich. The work is hard. The bar is high. Partner in 5-6 years possible, for the ones who can keep up and actually build a business themselves on our platform.\n\nStop reading if any of these describe you:\n• Specialisation. You are a generalist with shallow expertise and a thin network → AI will eat your lunch. We bet on depth.\n• Ownership. You spot the problem and walk it to your boss → We fall in love with problems. Own them. Solve them. Ship solutions.\n• Speed. Slow is your default → Speed compounds. Be smart and brave enough to select 80/20 in the right way.\n• Mindset. \"Not possible\" is part of your vocabulary → We hire people who always find a way.\n\nStill there? Then ALAIKA might be for you.\n\nAt ALAIKA, our vision is to build the future of Financial Services with three brands under one roof — Advisory (Strategy Consulting), Capital (Private Equity), Building (Company Builder). Right now, trojan horse ALAIKA Advisory.\n\nThe ambition: building the leading Financial-Services-specific entrepreneurial holding — Fortune 500 access, PE discipline, Silicon Valley technology-depth and thinking. Three networks that compound and multiply.\n• One industry. Financial Services. Nothing else.\n• One focus. The intersection of business and technology — across Strategic Transformations, AI & Data Intelligence, and Cybersecurity.\n• One goal. Being the go-to partner for the world's leading Fortune 500 financial services companies — and the ones we might help build into that.\n\nFounded in October 2022 by Johanna von Geyr (build-up and led Financial Services Practice for a NASDAQ-listed strategy consultancy) and Harald Braunstein (serial entrepreneur with exits incl. IPO), we bring together deep functional domain expertise and networks in global Financial Services, with a proven track record in building, scaling, and investing in leading software product companies. \n\nCurious what ALAIKA is all about? Explore our website and introduction deck.\n\nJoin the movement — apply now.\n\nThe role and what you will work on\n• Advise. Take on the most pressing strategic and technology challenges of the world’s leading financial services companies — across Strategy, Data & AI, and Cyber. In the room with decision-makers from day one.\n• Own. Own your deliverables, client relationships, and the quality of everyone working in it end-to-end. You are not support staff for the partnership — you aim to become the standard.\n• Lead. Run workstreams and project teams independently. Set the bar for junior consultants — challenge them, develop them, raise their game. Multiply the output of everyone around you — not just your own.\n• Sell. Drive business development that other strategic consultancies reserve for managers and partners. At ALAIKA, building the business is not a privilege reserved for managers and partners. It is an expectation.\n• Grow. Become the rare profile the market is short on — analytical mastermind, financial services expert, entrepreneurial dealmaker. Partner-track from day one.\n• Build. We are scaling, with real building left to do — IP, processes, go-to-market, strategy. You do not just deliver client work; you co-build the firm. That is not a slogan — it is your Tuesday.\n\nWhen you are a fit\n\n“Show me an athlete who did well academically. An athlete because they know what it takes to win and they have had to experience loss.”\n\n— Kenneth C. Griffin, Founder of Citadel\n\nYou will work alongside intrinsically driven people chasing an uncapped career — people who do \"what it takes\". You fear \"being one more number stuck in middle management\".\n\nYour goal is to make it to the top: at ALAIKA itself, at a leading investment or financial services firm, or in a company you build yourself — ALAIKA can help with that too.\n• Book-smart. Strong academic foundation. Think in structures, not gut feel.\n• Street-smart. Read the room fast. Prioritise ruthlessly. Grasp commercial reality.\n• People-smart. Communicate with precision — clear, direct, persuasive. Build trust across functions and seniority.\n• Athlete performance mindset. High aspirations. Grit. Learn faster than the environment changes.\n• Entrepreneurial guts. Self-confident achiever. Act first, apologise later — speed is everything. Take full ownership of work normally reserved for far more senior profiles.\n\nWhat you bring\n• Background. Top 10–20% of your class at a top-tier university. Analytical field — CS, Math, Physics, Finance, or equivalent rigour.\n• Experience. On average 4 years in a high-pressure, results-driven environment — top strategy consultancy, PE/VC-backed company, fast-growing tech, or demanding corporate financial services role. Hands-on Data & AI experience required. Financial services experience preferred.\n• Leadership. You have led — a team, a club, a project, a cause. We hire people who make things happen.\n• Analytical edge. Data-driven by default. Leverage data to drive decisions, not just decorate slides.\n• Languages. Fluent in English and German. Additional languages are a plus.\n\nWhy join ALAIKA\n• Partner track from day one. Five years from senior to partner possible.\n• Compensation. Above market with very entrepreneurial-driven bonus structures.\n• Stellar Network. Shoulder-to-shoulder with financial services executives running today’s giants and the founders + investors building tomorrow’s.\n• Offices. Munich and Barcelona. More coming.\n\nPlus: the essentials done right — EGYM Wellpass, bike leasing, a kitchen stocked with healthy food and team events worth showing up for: Oktoberfest, team dinners, and more.\n\nAdvise the leaders. Build what comes next.\nInvest in the future of Financial Services.\n\nApply with CV, transcripts, and references. Let’s see if you are the one.\n\nEqual Opportunities for all (f/m/d)\n\nALAIKA is an equal-opportunity employer.
