QUALIFICATIONS
You will have unique skills and an extraordinary background. You will be passionate about solving problems for businesses in future-facing industries.

*You will need to be a sharp analyst, thorough in your research; adept at interpreting ambiguous information; capable of making connections between divergent sources of intelligence; and quick to understand the commercial implications of political and policy-related developments.
*You must be a discreet professional, prizing confidentiality with respect to clients, sources, and methods; consistently demonstrating a professional and principled attitude; and temperamentally inclined toward anonymity rather than acclaim.
*You should make for a congenial colleague, being courteous, friendly, and modest in all your dealings with clients and coworkers. We collaborate for the benefit of our clients, the firm, and each other.
*You are a global citizen, having lived and worked internationally, ideally in an emerging or otherwise prospective market. An intense interest in geopolitical affairs is a minimum. Facility for languages other than English will be highly beneficial.
*You are a multi-disciplinary thinker. We come from diverse backgrounds, having varied experience across intelligence, diplomacy, law, finance, consulting, journalism, academia, and the not-for-profit sector.
*It is assumed you will have skills of excellent general application; however, it will be beneficial if you are also a subject matter expert, bringing deep, well-credentialed expertise in either a prospective jurisdiction or region or in a future-facing industry, such as critical minerals, the energy transition, and advanced technologies.
*You will need to be comfortable serving as an advocate for our business, helping to craft and drive business development initiatives, and proactively creating and managing client relationships.
