In this  episode Tilly Franklin, Founder and Trustee of GAIN, is joined by Pauline Ritter from Clayton, Dubilier & Rice. Originally an engineering student, Pauline unexpectedly found her calling in finance, paving her professional road with internships, including one in Investment Banking in New York. This experience led her to a 3-year stint at JP Morgan before she decided to transition from Investment Banking to Private Equity. Pauline demystifies the world of private equity and takes us through the unique dynamism and people-centric approach of her role. With  2 years of experience in her current position, Pauline provides valuable insights into the early stages of an investment management career. Tune in for her compelling story and the best advice she ever received: 'You are the captain of your ship and the master of your life.'For more information on our programmes, internships, events and resources visit gainuk.org.
