Investment Banking Expert - Evaluator

1. Role Overview

Mercor is partnering with a leading AI research organization to engage experienced investment banking professionals for a project focused on evaluating how well AI systems perform real-world banking work. Rather than producing deliverables yourself, you will define what excellent work looks like: designing task-specific grading criteria and scoring completed work samples with rigorous, well-reasoned written justifications.

2. Key Responsibilities

• Design precise, task-specific grading criteria for real-world banking deliverables (financial models, valuation analyses, pitch decks and CIMs, deal memos, board and committee materials)
• Score AI-generated and human work samples against those criteria, with detailed written justifications for every score
• Apply consistent, evidence-based judgment so that scores are reproducible and defensible
• Incorporate structured feedback from senior reviewers and iterate quickly on your work

3. Ideal Qualifications

• 2+ years of professional investment banking experience (associate level or above)
• Background at leading global investment banks or elite advisory boutiques, across M&A, coverage, or capital markets
• Deep fluency in the day-to-day craft: three-statement and transaction modeling (DCF, LBO, comparables, merger math), valuation judgment, deal-process materials, and the formatting and accuracy standards of bank-quality work product
• Exceptionally strong written communication, with the ability to explain exactly why a piece of work does or does not meet the bar
• Detail-oriented, consistent, and comfortable having your judgment reviewed and calibrated against peers
• Prior experience with AI training, evaluation, or human-data projects is a strong plus
