Life at VGI

We are a deliberately small firm. Every person at VGI has direct access to senior leadership and client exposure from their first day. We do not operate in practice groups or hierarchical pyramids—we expect everyone to think independently, contribute ideas across our three practice areas, and take ownership of their work.

Candidates for roles at VGI typically have 5-15 years of experience in investment banking, management consulting, diplomacy, or government service. We look for intellectual curiosity, cross-cultural fluency, and the ability to synthesize complex information into clear, actionable insight.

Senior Exposure From Day One

No analyst stacks. You work directly with partners and clients.

Cross-Practice Collaboration

M&A advisors work alongside geopolitical analysts on the same engagement.

Global Mobility

Opportunities to work across our five offices in Dubai, New York, Singapore, Cape Town, and Santiago.

Research Independence

Our insight team publishes based on conviction, not client pressure.

Open Positions

We are not currently hiring for any open roles. However, we accept speculative applications from exceptional candidates who believe their background aligns with our practice areas. All speculative applications are kept on file for 12 months.
