What this title actually means

The listing titles the role 'Senior Analyst / Associate'; the posting body opens with 'Senior Analyst / Junior Associate - FIG M&A Overview' and explains that FIG stands for the Financial Institutions Group. Source

The 'Senior Analyst / Junior Associate' framing paired with two to four year and three to six year experience asks signals an experienced hire intake rather than a graduate or off-cycle analyst programme.

The team

The hiring team is not named in the posting. The advert describes FIG M&A work but does not identify the bank, boutique or advisory firm running the team; only the recruiter, Selby Jennings, appears by name.

The firm

The listing is posted by Selby Jennings and attributed to eFinancialCareers. Source

Selby Jennings is a financial services recruitment firm, so this reads as a third-party posting on behalf of an unnamed client rather than a direct application to the employer.

What this posting signals

No deadline is printed in the posting; the listing shows 'Listing valid through: 2026-10-19', so expect applications to be reviewed on a rolling basis until that date.

Sector coverage spans Financial Services, FinTech, Business Services and Technology, with additional advantageous exposure to Professional Services and Accounting & Advisory Services. Source

Are you eligible?

Senior Analyst track: ACA qualified (or equivalent), ideally from a Big 4 Financial Services audit or advisory team, with two to four years of relevant experience in investment banking, corporate finance, transaction services or M&A advisory. Source

Junior Associate track: three to six years of relevant M&A, corporate finance or investment banking experience, with prior exposure to Financial Services, FinTech, Business Services, Technology, Professional Services or Accounting sectors preferred. Source
