Ensuring a diverse, open and inclusive place to work is of huge importance to everyone who works at Alpha.
Foster Mentorship Relationships
At Alpha, we take looking after our people seriously - and part of this is ensuring that we provide excellent mentorship and coaching.

We are committed to training our team - as a Graduate, you will start with an expedited week-long 'Alpha Training Programme' which includes modules on core techniques and soft skills used in Advisory, as well as sponsoring all S&D Graduate Associates to undertake Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Level 1 which is highly recognized in the industry.

Our people are at the heart of everything Alpha accomplishes and we pride ourselves on working hard, delivering at the highest caliber, and achieving our objectives through collaboration. We encourage, value and respect everyone’s perspectives & contributions. We offer a supportive social environment to employees, including firm sponsored summer trips, celebratory events, and regular socials/activities at top local spots. We also strongly believe in the importance of giving back to our local communities - our hallmark annual event is our Charity of the Year, where our local teams vote to elect a charitable endeavour, with a variety of engaging fundraising events, activities, and pro-bono support throughout the year.
