Junior Analytics Analyst
<div class="show-more-less-html__markup show-more-less-html__markup--clamp-after-5 relative overflow-hidden"> JHC Consulting is recruiting a Junior Analytics Analyst to support our core advisory work. Our client is a prominent institutional entity seeking a clear, dissenting read of their internal strategy and data sets. We are a small, deliberate advisory practice that provides private counsel to boards and chief executives. This role is fully remote, allowing for focused, independent thought and high level analytical work. The position is paid, and we offer a competitive level of compensation that reflects the specialized nature of our mandates and the quality of thought we require from every employee.<br/> <br/><strong>The Role<br/></strong> In this role, your primary task is the synthesis of complex data into written arguments. We do not use presentations or slides to communicate our findings. Instead, you will spend your time reading company records, reviewing internal metrics, and drafting memoranda that question the assumptions behind those numbers. You will work closely with our principals to refine these documents through numerous revisions until the logic is airtight. Your day to day activities will involve:<ul> <li>Reviewing raw data and internal reports provided by our clients to find inconsistencies.</li> <li>Drafting clear, concise paragraphs that explain mathematical findings in plain language.</li> <li>Conducting independent research to verify the external market assumptions used in client models.</li> <li>Identifying the gaps between a company narrative and its actual performance metrics.</li> <li>Assisting in the production of formal memoranda that will be archived by corporate boards for years.</li> <li>Participating in critical reviews of your own writing to ensure absolute clarity.</li> <li>Managing your own schedule and tasks in a fully remote environment.</li> <li>Ensuring all work meets our standards for discretion and individual accountability.</li> <br/><br/></ul><strong>What You Bring<br/></strong> While this is an entry level role, we require a high degree of intellectual maturity and a disciplined approach to work. We are looking for individuals who find satisfaction in the details and have the patience to read thousands of pages of internal documentation. Specifically, we look for the following background:<ul> <li>A university degree or equivalent background in a field that requires both quantitative and qualitative rigor, such as economics, finance, or history.</li> <li>Basic familiarity with analytical tools and the ability to interpret statistical data without supervision.</li> <li>Exceptional writing skills and a preference for prose over visual aids or verbal summaries.</li> <li>A skeptical mind that naturally looks for the uncomfortable truths hidden in a set of figures.</li> <li>The ability to explain how a calculation was performed and why it matters to a chief executive or board member.</li> <li>Strong organizational habits, as you must manage your research and writing and meet deadlines autonomously.</li> <li>A willingness to have your work rigorously challenged and revised by our lead advisors.</li> <li>An appreciation for the weight of a signed document and the responsibility that comes with it.</li> <br/><br/></ul><strong>How We Work<br/></strong> At JHC Consulting, we believe that writing is the most effective form of thinking. Our firm is structured around the single author model. Every project ends in a signed memorandum, authored by the person who conducted the analysis. This creates a high level of individual responsibility for every sentence on the page. We do not participate in the typical ceremonies of the consulting industry. There are no unnecessary meetings or collaborative workshops designed to reach a consensus. Instead, we value the dissenting view and the courage to trace every claim back to a clear, foundational assumption. Our work is quiet and focuses on the discipline of the written word.<br/> <br/><strong>Working at JHC Consulting<br/></strong> Working here means choosing a path of professional autonomy and intellectual depth. Because our team is fully remote, we rely on written communication for our internal work as much as we do for our clients. We do not expect you to be available at all hours, but we do expect the highest quality of output during your working time. We value the ability to work in solitude and the focus required to produce a finished, polished document. Our practice is kept small by design to ensure that every mandate we accept receives the thorough reading it deserves. This environment is ideal for those who prefer deep analysis over the variety and volume often found in larger firms.<br/> The work of JHC Consulting is intended to stand the test of time. Every memorandum we produce becomes a permanent part of a company's record, and our name stays at the foot of every page. This dedication to excellence and individual accountability is the cornerstone of our advisory practice. We look for analysts who understand that their names will be associated with their work long after a specific mandate has concluded. This role is a starting point for someone who wishes to develop the skills of a high level advisor within a firm that values rigor, logic, and the enduring power of the written argument. </div>
