They are looking to hire an Investment Banking Analyst to join their Private Equity investment team in London, offering exposure across secondaries and direct/co-investments.

The Opportunity

You’ll work closely with the senior investment professionals across the full investment lifecycle, from initial screening through to execution and portfolio monitoring.

* Engage with the fund managers, sponsors, and management teams
* Contribute to wider business-building initiatives, including deal flow and process improvement

Candidate Profile:

* 1-2 years experience in M&A-focused private equity or investment banking
* Strong grounding in financial modelling, valuation, and corporate finance
* Highly analytical, with strong attention to detail and commercial judgement
* Confident communicator, comfortable working with senior stakeholder
* Motivated, proactive, and keen to build a long-term career in private markets
* Exposure to secondaries or co-investments is advantageous, but not required

Why This Role:

* Exposure to secondaries, primaries, and direct investments within a single role
* Opportunity to work within a globally integrated private markets investment platform
* Access to high quality deal flow and institutional grade investment processes
* Steep learning curve, early responsibility, and clear long-term career progression
* Collegiate, family-driven culture with genuine access to senior investors, working in a lean, senior team where analysts gain significant exposure and responsibility
* Strong team culture, including annual offsites, ski trips and social events, fostering collaboration and long-term engagement
