Fellowship - Talent Acquisition (3-6 months)

We are looking for Fellows starting in October 2026 for 6 months.

Advise. Invest. Build. Meet ALAIKA - a new kind of Financial Services firm - globally scaling, headquartered in Munich. The work is hard. The bar is high. Convince during your Fellowship and earn the opportunity to join ALAIKA full-time after graduation.

Stop reading if any of these describe you:

- You need someone to fire the starting gun → We only hire people who can prove they are intrinsically driven and execute.

- You spot the problem and walk it to your boss → We fall in love with problems. Own them. Solve them. Ship solutions.

- Slow is your default → Speed compounds. Be smart and brave enough to select 80/20 in the right way.

- «Not possible» is part of your vocabulary → We hire people who always find a way.

Still there? Then ALAIKA might be for you.

At ALAIKA, our vision is to build the future of Financial Services with three brands under one roof - Advisory (Strategy Consulting), Capital (Private Equity), Building (Company Builder). Right now, we are in the midst of building our trojan horse ALAIKA Advisory.

The ambition: building the leading Financial-Services-specific entrepreneurial holding - Fortune 500 access, PE discipline, Silicon Valley technology-depth and thinking. Three networks that compound and multiply.

- One industry. Financial Services. Nothing else.

- One focus. The intersection of business and technology - across Strategic Transformations, AI & Data Intelligence, and Cybersecurity.

- One goal. Being the go-to partner for the world's leading Fortune 500 financial services companies - and the ones we might help build into that.

Founded in October 2022 by Johanna von Geyr (build-up and led Financial Services Practice for a NASDAQ-listed strategy consultancy) and Harald Braunstein (serial entrepreneur with exits incl. IPO), we bring together deep functional domain expertise and networks in global Financial Services, with a proven track record in building, scaling, and investing in leading software product companies.
