Job Description

About 9fin

The world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data.

Technology has revolutionized equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it’s in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered.

Our mission is to change this.

9fin's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal & ESG analysis. Our clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business and most importantly, save time.

Our fast growing list of clients include 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds and Law Firms.

  • Deep-dive reports — You’ll produce detailed reports covering the many technical aspects of complex restructuring cases on specific distressed situations, often collaborating with journalists and analysts

  • Generating ideas — You’ll provide a consistent stream of new ideas, whether that’s identifying new situations to cover, or thinking up new ways to cover them

  • Advancing docket technology — You’ll help advance our docket technology to track and covering in-court processes, helping ensure timely and comprehensive coverage of cases

About you

  • Experienced — 3+ years working as part of an established corporate restructuring practice, or equivalent clerkships under a bankruptcy judge

  • An exemplary communicator — Clear and concise in written and verbal language, and able to explain complex ideas in simple terms

  • Detail-oriented — Thrives on digging into the intricacies of specific cases and individual credits

  • Knowledgeable — Has a deep understanding of and appreciation for the US Bankruptcy Code
