Junior Consultant

Phi Partners is launching a Graduate Programme to bring the next generation of Capital Markets technologists into our consulting business. Successful candidates will join Phi as full-time employees and be trained on Murex before being deployed onto live client engagements alongside our senior consultants. Murex is one of the most widely used software platforms in global financial markets. Banks, asset managers, and hedge funds use it to manage their trading activity end-to-end — from capturing trades and pricing complex financial products, to managing risk and processing settlements. It is large, technically rich, and sits at the heart of how many of the world's biggest financial institutions run their business. Specialists who can build, support, and evolve Murex environments are in consistently high demand, and that expertise is exactly what this programme is designed to develop. Graduates will be based in Cyprus, working from our growing Murex delivery centre. From there, you may be deployed onto a range of client projects across our portfolio of global investment banks, asset managers, and hedge funds. Engagements typically span areas such as Environments Management, Production Architecture & Configuration, integration, testing, and front-to-back implementation work. This is an excellent opportunity for a strong computer science (or related) graduate to launch their career in Capital Markets technology, with structured training, on-the-job mentorship from experienced Murex consultants, and exposure to real-world delivery from day one.

Responsibilities

• Supporting senior members of the team with day-to-day tasks
• Deploying and managing Murex environments (build, test, support) across appropriately sized infrastructure.
• Supporting release packaging and deployment activities.
• Managing user access and entitlements across Murex environments.
• Assisting with routine operational requests such as database dumps, service restarts, and environment refreshes.
• Scripting for job automation, including startup/shutdown scripts and end-of-day schedules.
• Supporting housekeeping activities such as purging rules, archiving, and cleaning files on servers.
• Troubleshooting lower-complexity technical issues, escalating to senior team members where appropriate.
• Contributing to documentation and knowledge transfer across the team.

Qualifications

• A recent degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science or a related technical discipline.

Required Skills

• Strong fundamentals in programming and scripting (e.g. Python, Shell, Java, or C++).
• Familiarity with Linux/Unix environments and the command line.
• An aptitude for picking up new technologies quickly - prior exposure to Murex or financial markets is not required, but a genuine interest in the industry is essential.
• Good working knowledge of databases and SQL.
• Familiarity with XML and XSLT.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Good written and verbal communication skills in English.

As your expertise develops, there are clear pathways for progression into more senior consulting roles across our practice.
