Tobias’ journey
My name is Tobias Ustun. I’m from the UK but my father was born in Turkey. Prior to the MFin I did my undergraduate degree at The University of Leeds, where I majored in accounting and finance. After graduating I worked within the luxury hotel space before working in finance, FP&A and investment appraisal for Hilton. I decided I wanted to transition into investment banking, and used the MFin to facilitate the transition. I secured a full-time grad role offer at Rothschild & Co within the investment banking division beginning in November 2020.
The MFin for me gave me exactly what I needed from it, an excellent understanding of finance concepts which built on my undergraduate degree, chartered accountancy and my interest in investing. It also provided crucial career support which helped me to secure a great job offer. Above and beyond that the networking opportunities on offer are fantastic both for career and personal progression and the ‘Cambridge experience’ is something priceless that very few get to enjoy.
