Zastre & Co. | Vancouver, BC | 30 hours per week | C$3,000 per month
Zastre & Co. is looking for a highly computer-savvy, motivated person who wants to build a career in investment banking.
You do not need previous investment-banking experience. You do need to be comfortable learning software quickly, solving problems independently, communicating professionally and following through on your responsibilities.
This is a hands-on role supporting our origination process - finding potential clients and opportunities, managing correspondence and helping move conversations forward. You’ll gain exposure to mergers and acquisitions, debt financing and equity capital raising while learning from our team.
What you’ll do
- Operate and monitor Grokbot, our AI tool supporting inbox management and meeting workflows; check its outputs and troubleshoot issues.
- Organize inboxes, identify important messages, prepare responses and keep follow-ups moving.
- Research companies, business owners, buyers, investors and lenders.
- Maintain accurate prospect lists, CRM records and pipeline updates.
- Prepare for and attend meetings, capture action items and ensure next steps are completed.
- Support company research, financial analysis and transaction materials as your skills develop.
What we’re looking for
- Excellent computer skills are essential. You should be confident working across multiple applications, spreadsheets, browser tools and AI systems.
- A demonstrated ability to learn unfamiliar software and troubleshoot problems.
- Strong attention to detail, organization and clear written communication.
- Initiative, a strong work ethic and dependable follow-through.
- A genuine interest in learning investment banking, business development and how transactions get completed.
- Availability to work in Vancouver for 30 hours per week, scheduled during Vancouver business hours.
Experience with Excel or Google Sheets, CRMs, automation tools or AI assistants is valuable. Coding skills are a plus, but not required. Prior investment-banking experience is not required.
Compensation and schedule
C$3,000 per month for 30 hours per week. The specific weekly schedule will be agreed before starting.
How to apply
Submit your résumé and a short note explaining:
- Why you want to learn investment banking.
- Which software, AI or automation tools you use confidently.
- One example of a computer-related problem you solved or a workflow you improved.
Shortlisted applicants may complete a brief practical exercise using fictional information to demonstrate computer skills, organization and judgment.
