We are a 17-person firm, formed in 1995, unified by a mission of helping our clients successfully navigate the complex financial strategy required to turn scientific innovations into patient impact.

· Are goal-oriented and approach projects with an ownership mentality
· Possess work habits stressing initiative, self-reliance, organization, thoroughness, attention to detail, and perseverance
· Exhibit maturity, self-confidence, strong communication skills, and an ability to work both independently and in a team
· Have strong research and presentation skills
Chestnut prefers candidates who have:
· Math, science, economics, finance and/or accounting backgrounds through class work or prior experience (a full major in one of these subjects is not required and Chestnut has hired candidates in the past who did not major/minor in one of these concentrations)
· Experience using Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint
