Teymour Aziz

I'm a final-year International Business student at the University of Birmingham, back from an exchange year at DeGroote School of Business in Canada. My placements span a healthcare start-up, an insurance brokerage and a fuel-poverty charity, across finance, compliance and policy. Alongside my degree I help RareStudio, a marketing agency for small businesses. I'm looking for internship and graduate roles in consulting, strategy and financial services.
