For our business, for clients, and for you

Step into the world of private markets and gain hands‑on experience supporting real investment transactions, investor activity, financial reporting and operational processes. This programme offers a unique opportunity to learn how complex private equity and real estate investment structures are managed throughout their lifecycle while developing skills highly valued across the investment industry.

As a Deal‑by‑Deal Operations Intern, you will work in one of the most dynamic areas of private markets operations: supporting individual private equity and real estate investment structures from set‑up through placement, investor reporting, distributions, asset issuance and reconciliation.

Participants will support the operating model for Deal‑by‑Deal investments, where activity is organised across acquisitions, placements, distributions, ongoing activities, asset issuance and reconciliations. In practise, this means learning how investment structures are created, how investor activity is recorded, how cash and receivables are matched, how fees and fair values are maintained, and how operational records are reconciled and reported.

This internship is suited to candidates who want more than a traditional finance internship. It offers hands‑on exposure to real operational deliverables, structured problem‑solving, data quality, accounting feeds, investor‑level reporting and process controls across a multi‑entity investment environment.

Interns will work alongside the wider operations teams to support:

• Investment structure set‑up and maintenance.
• Acquisition and funding activities across complex multi‑entity structures.
• Recording investor subscriptions, placements and capital activity.
• Cash matching, receivable management and transaction monitoring.
• Fee calculations, accounting entries and investor reporting support.
• Distribution processing and return of capital activities.
• Asset issuance and investor ownership administration.
• Financial reconciliations and month‑end operational processes.

• Strong organisational and time‑management skills.
• Professional written and verbal communication.
