- 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.
- 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.
