The posting

As a Summer M&A Analyst, you will gain first-hand exposure to the fast-paced world of middle-market mergers and acquisitions. The program provides a rigorous and immersive experience, designed to mirror the responsibilities of a full-time Analyst.

Summer Analysts are actively involved in live deal execution across multiple industries. Responsibilities include building detailed financial models, performing valuation analyses, preparing confidential information memoranda (CIMs), drafting management presentations, and conducting company, industry, and buyer/seller research. Analysts also support due diligence efforts, data room management, and direct communication with clients, investors, and counterparties.

The internship is structured to offer end-to-end transaction experience, from early-stage pitch development to final negotiations and closings. You will collaborate closely with Analysts, Associates, and senior bankers, gaining practical insight into how strategic and financial buyers evaluate investment opportunities and how transactions are executed in real time.

In addition to technical training, Summer Analysts develop critical soft skills by participating in client calls, management meetings, and deal team discussions. The role provides a strong foundation for a career in investment banking, private equity, or corporate development, while offering a unique opportunity to contribute directly to high-impact M&A transactions.

Requirements

  • Must be a RISING COLLEGE SENIOR or entering the final year of a graduate program
  • Full-time, in-office commitment required; the program runs Monday through Friday, May 30 – July 30
  • Strong academic performance in finance, accounting, economics, business, or related fields
  • Solid understanding of corporate finance, valuation methods, and financial statement analysis
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint; prior experience with financial modeling preferred
  • Excellent research, analytical, and quantitative skills
  • Strong written and verbal communication abilities
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment
  • High attention to detail and commitment to accuracy
  • Team-oriented mindset with strong interpersonal skills
  • Prior internship or relevant work experience in finance, consulting, or related field is a plus

Benefits

  • Hands-On Deal Exposure – Direct involvement in live M&A transactions, giving interns practical skills that extend beyond the classroom.
  • Mentorship and Training – Guidance from experienced investment bankers through structured training sessions, one-on-one coaching, and regular feedback.
  • Professional Development – Opportunities to build technical skills in financial modeling, valuation, and strategic analysis.
  • Networking Opportunities – Exposure to senior bankers, clients, and industry professionals that can help shape future career paths.
  • Career Advancement – Strong performers may be considered for full-time Analyst or Associate opportunities upon graduation.
  • Competitive Stipend – Participants receive a stipend for the duration of the internship, providing financial support while gaining valuable experience.

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.
