**Description**

**Company Overview**

Alvarez & Marsal ("A&M") is a global consulting firm with more than $2+ billion in revenues, c.7000+ staff and over 70 offices worldwide. We offer a broad range of professional services including Restructuring, Transaction Advisory, Performance Improvement, Corporate Transformation, Financial Institutions Advisory, Tax, Valuations, and Disputes and Investigation Services. Companies, investors and government entities around the world turn to A&M for leadership, action and results.

Building on its credentials, the firm has recently launched the Sovereign Advisory Services (SAS) team, which is currently present in London, Dublin, Washington DC, New York, and Dubai - where the role will be based.

**A&M Culture**

A&M is a fast-paced environment with a highly dynamic culture which emphasizes diversity and inclusion. We empower, coach, and mentor future leaders and endorse meritocracy to develop skilled consultants who deliver tangible results and build long-lasting relationships. Our entrepreneurial culture celebrates independent thinkers and doers who positively impact our clients and shape our industry.

The collaborative, supportive environment, and engaging work-guided by A&M's core values of Integrity, Quality, Objectivity, Fun, Personal Reward, and Inclusive Diversity-are the main reasons our people love working at A&M. Inclusive Diversity means just that-we embrace diversity and foster inclusiveness. It runs through how we recruit, develop employees, conduct business, support clients, and partner with vendors. It is the A&M way.

**The Team**

A&M has attracted top performers at every experience level. We are expanding the SAS team in Dubai and are seeking talented, entrepreneurial people who are interested in developing their careers in the Sovereign Advisory space.

The SAS team is comprised of some of the most experienced professionals in sovereign advisory, central banking, SOE and bank restructuring, as well as professionals previously holding senior positions at both the IMF and World Bank. The mission of A&M's Sovereign Advisory Services is to help countries improve debt sustainability, increase access to capital markets, promote economic growth, and improve the efficiency of state-owned assets, and how governments deliver services to their citizens.

**The Role**

We are looking for an Analyst to join our SAS team in the Dubai office, reporting directly to the Global Practice Leader of SAS, who is based in Dubai. The Analyst will undertake economic and financial analysis, work on sovereign debt sustainability analysis (DSAs), while also supporting the team with relevant data work and client pitching.

As an Analyst, you will support the team with ideas and solutions to client needs, as well as with building the team's franchise in sovereign advisory. As part of the team, you will have the opportunity to take your career to the next level by gaining invaluable experience in the sovereign space by working closely with experienced professionals with a variety of backgrounds, within and outside of SAS. At A&M, we also like to provide continuous developmental feedback and growth opportunities.

Examples of the types of tasks you would be expected to work on include:

- Data gathering, analysis and presentation to other members of the team in relation to relevant macroeconomic trends, economic fundamentals, forecasts, news pieces, relevant papers, and more for client work and/or pitches
- Assist in the production of published articles/thought pieces to help reinforce A&M's market position as a thought leader in sovereign advisory, central bank advisory, SOE and sovereign wealth fund advisory, and systemic bank restructuring

Examples of projects you would be supporting could include any of the following, also based on the background, capabilities, and preference of the Analyst:

- Sovereign debt sustainability and financial advisory
- Debt management strategy
- Systemic bank restructuring
- Sovereign wealth fund advisory
- Public sector advisory
- SOE advisory

**The Requirements**
- Minimum 1-2 years of prior experience in sovereign advisory, financial analysis, or economic research gathered within an IFI (such as the IMF, World Bank etc.), investment or corporate bank, rating agency, think tank or consulting firm, ideally with a focus on sovereign-relevant aspects
