The posting

Part-Time MBA Intern — Youth Sports Acquisitions

About the opportunity

We are pursuing an independent-sponsor-style buy-and-build strategy in youth sports. The search is led by an exited, self-funded searcher with private equity and operating experience.

This internship is for an MBA student interested in entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA), search funds, or independent sponsorship. You will take part in an active acquisition search and learn how a business is sourced, evaluated, and acquired. Depending on timing, you may support a live deal and work on projects after an acquisition.

The search also uses applied AI and custom software for tasks such as NDA processing, financial analysis, and data-room review. Two developers who have worked with the search lead before are helping build these tools. You may help improve the tools and explore how they could support the broader platform.

What you might work on

The work will change as the search develops. Projects may include:

  • Researching youth sports markets, companies, and trends
  • Finding and evaluating potential acquisition targets
  • Supporting financial and commercial analysis
  • Helping with due diligence and deal execution
  • Improving AI-enabled tools used in the search
  • Supporting planning and projects after an acquisition

The main focus is the acquisition search. The mix of work will depend on what is active and where you can contribute most.

Who may be a good fit

You may be a strong fit if you:

  • Are pursuing an MBA and have a serious interest in ETA, search funds, or independent sponsorship
  • Want to learn how acquisitions work and how to build a company after a deal
  • Take initiative and can make progress on open-ended work
  • Bring early ideas or a rough plan for discussion instead of waiting for detailed instructions
  • Work well independently and communicate clearly with the search lead and developers
  • Use good judgment about when to test an idea and when to check in first

Experience in product management, software, engineering, or another technical field is a plus. You do not need to be a developer. Product judgment and the ability to give clear feedback to a technical team would be useful.

Schedule and location

Plan for 10–20 hours per week, with flexibility around your academic schedule and the needs of the work. This is an in-semester internship. It will run for at least the fall semester, with the option for both sides to extend through the spring semester.

For students based in Los Angeles, we expect one in-person day each week. We are especially interested in MBA students at UCLA or USC. We are also open to students at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business, given the search’s active pipeline in Southeast Michigan.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
