We are partnering with a global private equity fund, active across a broad range of sectors, which is looking to grow its Paris team with the addition of a new Investment Associate.

Description

As an Investment Associate, you will start as a generalist, before transitioning to a more sector-specific role once you have gained a few years of experience. You will become part of a high-performing team and will be actively involved at all stages of the transaction cycle, from origination to exit. You will play a pivotal role in deal sourcing, with your insights and contributions highly valued by the team.

To thrive in this role, you likely bring a few years of experience in a top-tier investment bank or private equity fund. Our client is also open to candidates from a strategy consulting background, particularly those who have developed a strong technical skillset through internships in investment banking or private equity. For this role, you must be fully professionally proficient in both French and English.
