Organisational context: It sits in the "Middle Office" under Finance.

Gather data: Pull financial information from the companies the bank has invested in to make sure the math is based on real, up-to-date facts. Run the meetings: Every quarter, they'll put together the data packs and be a key voice in the room telling executives, "Here is what our portfolio is worth and why." Regulatory and Audit liaison: Serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors and regulatory bodies to ensure compliance and substantiate valuation methodologies. Essentials Education: A university degree in a math-heavy or business subject (Finance, Economics, Accounting, etc.). Process & policy writers: Someone who has experience writing down the rules, processes, and control documentation for how finance operations should run. Data interpreters: They need to be able to look at messy company data, make sense of it, and explain it to non-finance people. Excel wizards: Advanced Microsoft Office skills are mandatory because they live in spreadsheets. Desirable Private Equity / Venture Capital knowledge: Ideally, they know the IPEV Guidelines. These are just the standard international rules for valuing private companies. Financial modelling experience: Look for people who explicitly mention building valuation models from scratch, not just updating someone else's.
