RayJay London Office

Currently pursuing a Masters at a top European Target, Graduated from LSE last year. Was interested in learning more about Raymond James' London office ie deal flow, deal size, comp, exits, culture, sector-specific groups. Heard that their Tech & Services team is fairly strong in the MM game, would be interested in knowing more about T&S, Consumer & Retail (heard Financo acquisition raised deal flow significantly) and other groups such as Healthcare and/or Industrials.

Sweaty, very sweaty. Pay top market though. Pure MM (EV sub £150m player).

 

Sweaty. Very MM focus but lots of sellside work vs others who are often buyside weighted. 

I know Mr Bertie (Europe Head) and worked with him at Jef. Top gent and a great banker. 

Could do far worse. Just he aware it's MM banking. No FT front page deals going on there if you're a deal trophy hunter.
