Investment Banking Technology, Senior Analyst - Citi
No deadline given. It closes when the places fill, which on a sought-after London desk is often weeks after it opens. Apply as if it closes tomorrow.
What this title actually means
It is a full-time Senior Analyst seat in Citi's Technology Investment Banking team in London, posted 1 September 2026, filed under Job Family Group: Institutional Banking, Job Family: Investment Banking. 'Technology' here is the client sector, not an IT job: the team covers Software, AI, Internet, IT services, FinTech and more, and works with global technology companies, high-growth disruptors and the sponsors active in the space. Source
'Senior Analyst' reads senior and is not: the posting itself calls it 'a junior level position' supporting the team on M&A and capital raising, as 'the junior member of the Investment Banking team'. The day-to-day is preparing written recommendations, valuation materials and statistical exhibits for pitches and live deals, organising and analysing financial data for client proposals, researching industry and market trends, evaluating company performance and building financial models for valuation and M&A analysis.

Technology is not one business model. B2B SaaS runs on ARR, NRR and Rule of 40; consumer and marketplace work runs on GMV, take rate, DAU/MAU and LTV/CAC. Cohort analysis beats blended averages almost everywhere in the sector. Work out which model a given client is before you touch a multiple. Source
The team
The Technology Investment Banking team describes itself as a leading franchise with deep expertise across the technology sector and strong relationships with leading global technology companies, high-growth disruptors and all relevant sponsors. It says it has experienced exceptional deal flow and is hiring to expand the franchise. Unlike most of Citi's lateral adverts, this one was written by the team rather than pasted from the job-family template, which is a small sign that the seat is real and current. Source
119 people have held London roles at IBD at Citi since 2018. there is no separate count for the Technology team inside the division.
The firm
Citi describes itself on the advert as approximately 219,000 people worldwide. The seat is a Certified Role under the FCA and PRA Certification Regime, so Citi's UK regulated entities must assess you as fit and proper before you start. Source
318 people have held London roles at Citigroup as a whole since 2018.
What this posting signals
This is a lateral hire, and the advert says so in its own words: the first qualification is 'prior experience in investment banking, private equity or related fields', followed by experience evaluating corporate transactions and structures and creating financial analyses with strong modelling and valuation. A student or new graduate does not meet that list; the campus routes into Citi are advertised separately. Source
No application deadline is stated. The board shows the listing as valid through 13 October 2026, which is the advert's expiry, not a closing date from Citi. A team that says it is expanding on exceptional deal flow will hire as soon as it finds the person, so apply early if you fit.
Are you eligible?
Stated qualifications: prior experience in investment banking, private equity or related fields; strong interest in working with technology companies; experience evaluating corporate transactions and structures; experience creating financial analyses with strong financial modelling and valuation skills; strong presentation skills; problem-solving and organisational skills; clear written and verbal communication; experience assisting with client development; the ability to work with teams and track business development; and the ability to work under pressure to deadlines. Education: a Bachelor's or university degree or equivalent experience 'at a top tier academic institution'. Source
The Certified Role assessment runs through extensive interviews, self-disclosures, permitted criminal record checks, regulated reference checks, credit checks and other background screening, against honesty, integrity and reputation; financial soundness; and competence and capability. Source
