👔 How it all started…

It’s a cold morning in the north of England, and I’ve just graduated with a Master’s degree from a non-target university.

What’s next? Time to send out applications!

I won’t bore you with the gritty details, but landing my first job in London took about nine months of sending out what felt like thousands of CVs. I became a pro at copy-pasting applications. But I quickly learned that finance in London is a different game for everyone.

My first job? Middle office. And to be honest, I didn’t even know what that was until I got there. I quickly realized that my understanding of the finance world was shallow, and without a clear idea of what ‘high finance’ really meant, I was never going to break into the roles I wanted.

After a year, I knew I had to change gears. I applied for another master’s, this time at a well-ranked university. While working full-time, I juggled preparing for investment banking interviews, learning financial modelling, and relying on the kindness of strangers who responded to my cold LinkedIn DMs with advice and resources (by the way, if you’re reading this, thanks for that!).

That grind paid off. I got accepted into a reputable master’s program, kept working (a piece of advice: don’t take on a full-time job and a full-time degree unless you have no interest in sleeping or socializing), and finally landed my first ‘high finance’ role as an analyst at a distressed credit fund. That’s where the real journey began.

Here’s the thing: there’s plenty of information out there if you want to break into top finance roles, but the process of filtering through it all ate up a ridiculous amount of time. If I’d had someone to filter out the noise and give me exactly what I needed, I would have saved hours, maybe even months.

That’s when the idea for Private Equity Bros started to take shape. Why not create a platform that does exactly that? Something that helps professionals, whether they’re just starting or well into their careers, by delivering the most relevant, valuable information right to them.
