Interested. Mayfair based.
Currently at one of the Big 3 Japanese banks (MUFG, Mizuho, SMBC) in debt capital markets and might have an opportunity to join the Capital Markets team at Wells Fargo (all in London). What are the thoughts reputationally on WF vs the Japanese banks in EMEA? Also if anyone has any insight into promotions (ability to go up the ranks faster in WF) and salary what would be super helpful! Wells Fargo Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.

Accept and continue looking for the 3 months before giving notice. As your contract is a three month notice and the job doesn’t start for 6 months you have 3 months to secure something better. Also by waiting the 3 months before giving notice you are confirming whether this offer is solid. The silliest thing to do would be to give your notice now when you still have 6 months before the role starts.
Also if they have a contractor in role but are also looking to perm hire I would be skeptical as why wouldn’t the contractor stay? Why is the role vacant?
Thanks, those were my thoughts too. I’m considering to propose that I start 3 months early for handover/transition and guarantee my place.
I’m also skeptical the contractor could stay on (although I assume they would have already mentioned a permanent role with them knowing it’s vacant).
Role is vacant due to what seems like a sudden departure and difficulty filling the position with the right candidate (which apparently I am lol)
