Fellowship Consulting - Financial Services / Data & AI (3-6 months)

• One industry. Financial Services. Nothing else.
• One focus. The intersection of business and technology — across Strategic Transformations, AI & Data Intelligence, and Cybersecurity.
• One goal. Being the go-to partner for the world's leading Fortune 500 financial services companies — and the ones we might help build into that.

Founded in October 2022 by Johanna von Geyr (build-up and led Financial Services Practice for a NASDAQ-listed strategy consultancy) and Harald Braunstein (serial entrepreneur with exits incl. IPO), we bring together deep functional domain expertise and networks in global Financial Services, with a proven track record in building, scaling, and investing in leading software product companies.

The role and what you will work on

• Advise. Take on the most pressing strategic and technology challenges of the world’s leading financial services companies — across Strategy, Data & AI, and Cyber. In the room with decision-makers from day one.
• Own. Own your deliverables end-to-end. You are not support staff for the seniors .
• Learn. Build the analytical, interpersonal, and business skills that define exceptional consultants. Work alongside colleagues of all levels , receive close coaching, and learn how high-stakes advisory work is done in practice.
• Build. We are scaling, with real building left to do — IP, processes, go-to-market, strategy. You do not just deliver client work; you co-build the firm . That is not a slogan — it is your Tuesday.

When you are a fit

“Show me an athlete who did well academically. An athlete because they know what it takes to win and they have had to experience loss.”

• Kenneth C. Griffin, Founder of Citadel

You will work alongside intrinsically driven people chasing an uncapped career — people who do "what it takes". You fear "being one more number stuck in middle management".

Your goal is to make it to the top: at ALAIKA itself, at a leading investment or financial services firm, or in a company you build yourself — ALAIKA can help with that too.

• Book-smart. Strong academic foundation. Think in structures, not gut feel.
• Street-smart. Read the room fast. Prioritise ruthlessly. Grasp commercial reality.
• People-smart. Communicate with precision — clear, direct, persuasive. Build trust across functions and seniority.
• Athlete performance mindset. High aspirations. Grit. Learn faster than the environment changes.
• Entrepreneurial guts. Self-confident achiever. Act first, apologise later — speed is everything. Take full ownership of work normally reserved for far more senior profiles.

What you bring

• Background. Currently studying or graduated, top 10% of your class at a top-tier university. Analytical field — CS, Math, Physics, Finance, or equivalent rigour. Minimum 4th Bachelor semester.
• Experience. Previous experience as a working student or intern in a high-pressure, results-driven environment — top strategy consultancy, PE/VC-backed company, fast-growing tech, or demanding corporate financial services role. Hands-on Data & AI experience, as well as financial services experience, is a plus.
• Leadership. You have led — a team, a club, a project, a cause. We hire people who make things happen.
• Analytical edge. Data-driven by default. Leverage data to drive decisions, not just decorate slides.
• Languages. Fluent in English. German and additional languages are a plus.

Why join ALAIKA

• Your launchpad. Convince during your Fellowship and earn a full-time offer after graduation — with partner-track ambition from day one.
• Stellar Network. Shoulder-to-shoulder with financial services executives running today’s giants and the founders + investors building tomorrow’s.
