We look closely at how finance and advisory professionals actually work, and where AI helps or falls short. The company was founded by people with backgrounds at Lazard, McKinsey and Partners Group. ## Role description We are looking for Subject Matter Experts from the presentation or graphics teams at banks, consultancies and advisory firms. You turn round marked-up decks with every change made and nothing else touched. You have used AI tools on your own work and been frustrated by the mistakes they make, or you simply want to find out how good they really are. You will turn that experience into realistic PowerPoint tasks that test how well AI handle the deck production work of a finance team. ## Responsibilities include - Writing realistic PowerPoint tasks drawn from your own production work: building decks from source documents, filling corporate templates, rolling decks forward and making precise edits - Working through each task yourself so there is a clear, correct answer - Writing a yes-or-no checklist precise enough that an AI grader can mark any attempt against it Necessary skills include - 3+ years in presentation services, visual/graphics or deck production for finance or advisory teams - Deep hands-on PowerPoint: native charts, tables and corporate templates - Ability to define what a correct deck looks like precisely enough for someone else to grade against it - Clear writing. Tasks must be written by you, not by AI tools - Attention to detail, and willingness to learn concepts in AI and data How it works - Apply with your details and CV. After applying, verify your email and choose an available 30-minute group walkthrough call. You can book immediately; there is no application-approval step before booking. - Attend the walkthrough and enter the code shared by the host at the end of the call to unlock your task workspace. - Create one original task from your own work in about 45 minutes. Submit the brief, the actual input files needed to complete it, a written expected result and at least five binary rubric checks, each with one skill tag. Input-file uploads are compulsory. - Write the brief and rubric yourself, without AI drafting, rewriting or polishing. Input materials must also be human-authored. Use only materials you are authorised to share, with confidential employer or client information removed. - Submit through your account for automated screening and team review. Follow any request for revisions in your account. Completing onboarding does not guarantee a job offer; selection remains subject to review.
