Arabian Private Holdings
Junior Business Analyst
Job Description
ABOUT THE ROLE
We are seeking a highly motivated Junior Business Analyst to provide essential research and logistical support to our principals as they advise high-level corporate boards. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring that every mandate we accept is grounded in rigorous investigation and clear financial logic. This role will focus on a specific project where our client is a regulated entity seeking a perspective on its corporate governance and future portfolio clarity.
ABOUT ARABIAN PRIVATE HOLDINGS
Arabian Private Holdings was founded to solve critical business problems that do not fit the traditional large-firm consulting model. We believe that boards and family groups require experienced partners who can sit with a problem, form a rigorous view, and defend it. Our work covers corporate strategy, governance, and operating model efficiency for significant holding companies, listed corporations, and government entities. We operate as a principal-led firm, meaning the people doing the analysis are the ones accountable for the results. We maintain a remote structure to ensure our focus remains on the quality of our independent advice rather than office management or headcount growth.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
As a Junior Business Analyst, your responsibilities will include:
Conducting research on industry trends and regulatory changes that affect our current mandates
Organizing complex data sets into simple structures to help principals form a view on client challenges
Monitoring the performance of portfolio companies to identify potential risks or shifts in strategy
Supporting the review of operating model efficiency for holding companies and established corporations
Preparing clear, concise briefing notes that summarize high-level governance issues for the senior team
Participating in internal discussions to help refine the firm's perspective on complex corporate problems
Maintaining documentation for ongoing projects to ensure analytical consistency across the firm
Assisting in drafting the logic for independent advice documents tailored for founders and board members
WHAT YOU'LL NEED
To be successful in this role, you will need:
A high degree of curiosity regarding how large businesses and entities function and grow
Exceptional clarity of thought and the ability to distinguish between relevant facts and noise
Strong written precision in English, with a focus on simplicity, directness, and logic
Basic proficiency with data tools to help organize financial and operational information
A willingness to admit when a problem or industry is outside your current understanding
The ability to work independently in a fully remote environment while staying in constant communication
WHY REMOTE
Arabian Private Holdings is a fully remote firm by choice, allowing us to recruit talent based on intelligence and character rather than proximity to a headquarters. We value honesty and independence, both in our advice to clients and in our internal professional critiques. This model relies on direct communication and a total lack of internal bureaucracy.
BENEFITS
This role offers:
Direct exposure to the decision-making processes of board members and portfolio founders
A permanent, fully remote position that allows for a flexible working environment
Paid employment with a competitive salary for the entry-level market and advisory sector
Development of analytical skills through the study of complex corporate governance and operating models
A professional environment focused on substantive results rather than internal corporate politics
