I have a large interest in the complexities of the financial industry as a whole, due to its dynamic global reach and involvement with businesses from all sectors and sizes. My interest in finance led me to undertake an extended internship during my gap year at Man Group, the largest listed hedge-fund manager. The experience helped me to develop key skills for working in the industry: most notably the ability to work successfully in a team; the capacity to identify, assess, and solve complex problems; and the awareness of how to address client needs effectively. My other internships have helped me develop skills applicable to all aspects of a business, including data handling, analytical thinking, teamwork, leadership and problem solving. I bring determination, ambition and a strong work ethic to the job. I truly value teamwork and I am strongly convinced that the careful preparation I have experienced to date will result in my ability to bring significant value added to the position.
