Junior Business Analyst

About the role
The Junior Business Analyst position provides essential research and logistical support to our principals as they advise high-level corporate boards. The role exists to ensure that every mandate we accept is grounded in rigorous investigation and clear financial logic. Much of your initial work 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 do not need massive teams or hundreds of pages of methodology to make a decision. Instead, they 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 will do

• Conduct research on industry trends and regulatory changes that affect our current mandates.
• Organize complex data sets into simple structures to help principals form a view on client challenges.
• Monitor the performance of portfolio companies to identify potential risks or shifts in strategy.
• Support the review of operating model efficiency for holding companies and established corporations.
• Prepare clear, concise briefing notes that summarize high-level governance issues for the senior team.
• Participate in internal discussions to help refine the firm's perspective on complex corporate problems.
• Maintain documentation for ongoing projects to ensure analytical consistency across the firm.
• Assist in drafting the logic for independent advice documents tailored for founders and board members.

What we are looking for

• 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.
