Analyst Class of 2006
Bachelor of Arts - Honours in Business Administration, with Distinction
Ivey School of Business, University of Western Ontario
I graduated from Ivey in April 2006 with a degree in Business Administration and a concentration in Finance. I began my investment banking career at Beaufort Partners, a Canadian M&A boutique. Shortly thereafter, our firm was acquired by Greenhill.
My experience at Greenhill so far has exceeded my expectations. From day one, I have been given a significant level of responsibility and have had extensive interaction with senior professionals. I gained exposure to a variety of transactions, including the sale of the directories business of a large Canadian telecom company. The generalist opportunity offered by Greenhill provides a unique chance to learn about new industries and transactions while working in a collegial environment.
As an analyst, I have learned to think quickly and creatively when solving problems. The training program was a great opportunity to meet with colleagues from all over the world, and has since served as the most valuable resource. The people at Greenhill are an important and crucial aspect of the firm; there is a true sense of camaraderie among professionals at all levels which is reflected in a very positive working environment.
