Junior Market Research Analyst at Arabian Private Holdings, Remote

About the role

The Junior Market Research Analyst position is a foundational analytical role within our research team. This position primarily supports an ongoing strategic mandate for a large international client, providing the factual evidence needed to resolve complex governance and strategy questions. You will be responsible for gathering the raw data and primary insights that allow our principals to form a clear view on the direction of major corporate projects.

About Arabian Private Holdings

Arabian Private Holdings was established to solve the problems that traditional consulting firms often make more complicated. We do not believe in massive teams or endless slide decks. Instead, we work on a small number of critical mandates where high-level judgment and independent thinking are required. Our work typically involves corporate strategy, governance, and operating model efficiency for large family groups, listed corporations, and government entities. We provide honest advice and stay involved until results are clear. Our firm is and always has been fully remote, allowing us to focus entirely on the quality of our analysis and the strength of our relationships rather than office logistics.

What you will do

• Analyze the corporate structures and portfolios of peer firms to provide context for active client mandates.
• Gather financial and operational data on diverse holding companies to support investment or divestment views.
• Monitor regulatory changes and market shifts that affect governance frameworks in different jurisdictions.
• Draft concise summaries of economic trends for use in principal-led strategy sessions.
• Develop detailed profiles of key participants and industry leaders within the client sector.
• Support the refinement of client operating models by researching successful global precedents.
• Organize and manage internal data repositories to ensure information is accessible for urgent research requests.
• Prepare clear and factual briefing documents that avoid jargon and unnecessary complexity.

What we are looking for

• A high degree of logical rigor and the ability to break down a complex problem into its component parts.
• Precision in written English with a focus on brevity, clarity, and factual accuracy.
• A genuine curiosity about how large organizations are governed and how they allocate capital.
• Basic familiarity with reading financial reports or understanding corporate hierarchies.
• The self-discipline to work effectively in a fully remote environment without constant supervision.
• A commitment to verifying information from multiple primary sources before forming a conclusion.
• Comfort working with messy or incomplete data sets to find the patterns that matter.

How we work

We operate as a distributed firm without a physical office. This model requires a high level of trust, direct communication, and a clear focus on outcomes. Mentoring at Arabian Private Holdings happens through engagement on active mandates, where you will see exactly how a principal defends a recommendation to a board or a founder. We prioritize clarity over activity. Because we take on few projects at once, we expect everyone to be focused on the specific details that have the most impact for the client. There are no layers of management between you and the partners, making this an ideal entry point for someone starting a career in corporate strategy or holding company management.

What the role offers

• Competitive and attractive pay for the entry-level market.
• A permanent, full-time position within a stable and growing professional firm.
• Real exposure to the governance and strategy challenges of major international entities.
• The flexibility of a fully remote role that values performance over time spent at a desk.
• A professional environment where clear thinking is valued more than tenure or seniority.
• The opportunity to build a rigorous analytical toolkit relevant to private equity, corporate advisory, and equity research.
