About Aberdeen
Aberdeen Group plc is one of Europe’s largest investment companies, and we are built on a long-standing culture of caring about the future and making a positive impact. Together we invest for a better future. We do it to make a difference to the lives of our clients and customers, our employees, society, and our shareholders. Our business is structured around three distinct areas focused on our clients' changing needs: Aberdeen Investments, Aberdeen Adviser, and interactive investor.
As a Strategy and Corporate Development Analyst, you will help shape the decisions that support our long-term growth while investing in your tomorrow.
About the Department
The Strategy and Corporate Development team sits at the centre of Aberdeen’s strategic decision-making. Working closely with senior leaders across Aberdeen Investments, Adviser and interactive investor, the team leads Group strategy, mergers and acquisitions, disposals and strategic growth initiatives. It combines commercial insight, financial analysis and market intelligence to identify opportunities that support sustainable growth and help enable our clients to be better investors.
This is an exciting opportunity for an analyst with some experience in finance, corporate finance, investment management, banking or professional services who is looking to build a career in strategy and corporate development. Based in London within our blended working model, you will support strategic projects, corporate transactions and business planning activities across Aberdeen’s three businesses. You’ll gain exposure to senior decision makers, develop financial modelling and valuation expertise, and contribute to projects that influence the future direction of the Group. The breadth of exposure and responsibility makes this an excellent opportunity to invest in your tomorrow while developing a strong foundation in strategy, M&A and corporate development.

An inclusive way of working
Whatever way you like to work, if you have the talent and commitment to join our team, we’d like to hear from you.
At Aberdeen we’ve adopted a ‘blended working’ approach. This approach combines the benefits of face-to-face collaboration, coaching and connecting in our offices with the flexibility of working from home. It enables colleagues to find a balance that works for their roles, their teams, our clients and our business.
[An inclusive culture](https://www.abrdn.com/corporate/about-us/diversity-and-inclusion), where diverse perspectives drive our actions, is at the core of who we are and what we do. If you need assistance with your application, or a reasonable adjustment to your interview arrangements – for example, because you are neurodivergent, or have a physical, sensory, cognitive, mental, visible or invisible disability – please let us know and we’ll be happy to help.
We’re committed to providing an inclusive workplace where all forms of difference are valued and which is free from any form of unfair or unlawful treatment. We define diversity in its broadest sense – this includes but is not limited to our diversity of educational and professional backgrounds, experience, cognitive and neurodiversity, age, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, religion or belief and ethnicity and geographical provenance. We support a culture that values meritocracy, fairness and transparency and welcomes enquiries from everyone.
If you need assistance or an adjustment due to a disability please let us know as part of your application and we will assist.
At Aberdeen, our ambition is to be the UK’s leading Wealth & Investments group.
