Financial Modelling Analyst – Private Equity & Credit (Remote)

Overview

Competitive USD pay based on experience • 100% remote • Full-time contract

This role supports a U.S.-based technology organization building advanced AI systems for financial modeling and investment decision-making. You will build financial models from a blank Excel sheet and walk through your reasoning step by step, explaining how real investment and lending decisions are made.

Private equity modeling is the top priority, with credit and debt modeling close behind.

Responsibilities

• Build private equity (PE), credit, and debt models from scratch in Excel (no templates)
• Structure transactions, assumptions, and key drivers
• Link the full model flow: operations → cash flow → debt → returns
• Review and debug models built by others, identifying flawed assumptions, broken logic, and hidden risks
• Explain why a model works (not only what it outputs)

Requirements

• 2–10 years in finance roles with heavy, hands-on modeling
• Strong English skills, including clear written and spoken communication

Preferred Qualifications

PE / LBO

• Private equity / LBO experience
• Experience with sources & uses and transaction assumptions
• Multi-tranche debt schedule modeling (revolver, term loans, mezzanine, cash sweep)
• Returns analysis, including IRR, MOIC, and value creation bridges
• Operating model building with sensitivities, downside cases, and exit scenarios
• Experience with add-ons such as dividend recaps or refinancings (a plus)

Credit / Debt

• Covenant modeling experience (leverage, DSCR, interest coverage) and headroom testing

• Experience building downside and stress cases that drive lending decisions

• Modeling amortization, PIK, cash sweeps, and refinancing mechanics

• Private credit / direct lending deal modeling

• Recovery analysis and payment waterfalls

• Buy-side PE experience is strongly preferred, including deal diligence, portfolio company modeling, and IC materials supported by your own models

• Background in private equity, leveraged finance, sponsor coverage, private credit, direct lending, or credit underwriting

• Examples of models you built that drove real investment or lending decisions

• CFA, CA, MBA Finance, or equivalent backgrounds are welcome

• Investment banking or corporate finance candidates will be considered only with top-tier backgrounds and hands-on LBO, debt, or credit modeling experience

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive USD pay based on experience

Location

• 100% remote

Hiring Process

• Shortlisted candidates complete a ~3-hour take-home Excel modeling exercise, completed independently and designed to mirror real-world deal work.
