This role is expected to be in the office 5 days a week.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The job conditions for this position are in a standard office setting.

Limited corporate travel may be required to remote offices or other business meetings and events.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">We are excited to get to know you and your background. Concerned that you might not meet every requirement? We encourage you to still apply as you might be the right candidate for the role or other roles at PitchBook.</span></p>
