Careers
at Montesino.

Montesino hires corporate finance professionals to work on mandates for industrial SMEs and investment funds.

The model

A partnership structure.

Montesino is organized as a professional firm. Every mandate has a lead partner, and technical expertise is brought in as each engagement requires. New hires advance through grades on a formal track tied to experience and to the work they deliver.

01

Lead partner

Every mandate has a partner who signs the engagement letter and leads the process from set-up to closing.

02

Competencies by practice

Mergers & acquisitions, debt and structured finance, turnaround and strategic advisory: expertise is combined to fit each engagement.

03

Partner at the negotiation

The mandate is never handed down to junior staff. The partner who signs sits in the negotiation and manages the counterparty.

Professional grades

Two grades.

Progression follows formal grades. Each grade carries its own technical responsibilities and a different level of client contact.

01

Associate

Up to 10 years of experience

Execution of complete workstreams within the mandate: data room management, coordination with third-party advisors, drafting of contractual documents under supervision, presence on calls with client and counterparties. Starts handling technical parts of the work independently.

02

Partner

10+ years, internal track or lateral entry

Runs the mandate from origination to closing. Signs the engagement letter and answers directly to the client. Contributes to Montesino's strategy and to the admission of new partners. Equity profile.

Working at Montesino

Five principles.

01

Exclusive mandate

The firm accepts only a limited number of mandates, so that a partner follows every process closely.

02

One partner throughout

From the engagement letter to closing, the client deals with the same partner.

03

Work under scrutiny

Information memoranda, models, and valuations must hold up under review by funds, banks, court-appointed experts, and courts.

04

Growth by grades

Advancement depends on the work delivered and on the technical and client responsibilities a professional can take on. Reviews are annual and follow formal criteria.

05

Confidentiality

Each client's information is kept separate from other mandates and is never shared without authorization.

How to apply

Three steps.

01

Send your CV

Attach your CV as a PDF, a brief cover letter (max 1 page), and the area of interest. State the grade you are applying for (Associate or Partner) in the subject line.

02

Technical conversation

If the profile is a fit, a confidential technical interview follows with one or more partners, covering your experience and the cases you have worked on.

03

Onboarding

If the outcome is positive, the entry grade, the area of assignment, and the first mandates are agreed.
