I've been working with Level 20 since April and I am endlessly impressed by the calibre of women I meet. Working in private equity reminds me of the variety of journalism in many ways. Investment professionals need to be multi-skilled, clever, curious, able to absorb a lot of information in a short space of time and translate it into quick decisions, they need resilience, emotional intelligence, and people skills as well as the ability to read a spreadsheet, (ok that last one is not my strong point). The more I hear about private equity as a career, the more I wish I'd known about it sooner. If you, or your kids - as A Level results day looms tomorrow - want to know more, check out the website. And good luck to anyone opening that envelope tomorrow!
We have 12 incredible women to thank for creating Level 20 in 2015. Co-founder and past Chair Jennifer Dunstan of 3i Group plc explains how it quickly grew from an informal network to the organisation it is today.
Ah, thanks Jess Carter and good luck everyone as you consider your career options tomorrow!
