Our team of senior professionals delivers a wide array of strategic advisory, shareholder advisory, restructuring and special situations and private fund advisory and placement services to corporations, financial sponsors, institutional investors and governments around the world. We offer a unique portfolio of advisory services designed to help our clients achieve their strategic objectives.

To learn more about PJT Partners, please visit our website at www.pjtpartners.com. PJT is deploying AI across the firm as a core part of how the business operates. This role sits at the center of that effort. This individual will work directly with senior leadership to shape how 1,000+ professionals across all our global offices adopt and use AI in their day-to-day work. The work is strategic, analytical and operational. It requires studying how different groups work: what their pain points are, where time gets wasted, what high-value tasks AI can accelerate, and translating those insights into training, tooling, and adoption strategy. The best work will come from someone who can take what they learn from individual teams and deploy processes and structures that facilitate scaling best practices. This is a rare seat: direct exposure to senior leadership across every coverage group and corporate function, a front-row view of how a leading advisory firm is rethinking its processes, and the chance to build something from scratch rather than inherit it. The Analyst will contribute to the firm's AI adoption program, spanning three areas.
