YOUR OPPORTUNITY: Dedale is building a Talent Intelligence practice from the ground up, and we are looking for a driven, intellectually curious professional to be one of its first team members. You will join the Head of Talent Intelligence at the earliest stage of the practice. That means real exposure, real responsibility, and the chance to leave your mark on something that does not yet exist in its final form. Behind you, you will have the full weight of an established intelligence platform and an active network of 100+ leading PE funds, M&A advisors, and corporates — sponsors who already trust Dedale's research and are looking to deepen that relationship into talent.
