Support portfolio management teams with dashboards, KPIs, and performance tracking.
Help identify operational improvements, growth initiatives, and strategic priorities.
Assist in bolt‑on acquisition analysis, refinancing considerations, and exit scenarios.
What Makes This Work Exciting
Direct exposure to founders, CEOs, and management teams.
Real impact: the work you do influences whether millions of dollars are invested.
Rapid learning curve in M&A, operations, and strategic finance.
Ideal Candidate Profile
This is a representative profile firms in our network look for:
Education & Technical Skills
Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, Engineering, Math, or similar field.
Very strong Excel skills; able to build & audit complex models.
Solid foundation in corporate finance, accounting, and valuation.
Experience (Formal or Informal)
Prior internships or full‑time experience in investment banking, PE/VC, consulting, or corporate finance is a plus (but not always required if you're exceptional).
Demonstrated interest in investing, deals, and business analysis (clubs, projects, side hustles, or self‑directed learning count).
Soft Skills & Mindset
High ownership mentality - you don't wait to be told what to do; you hunt for answers.
Strong written and verbal communication - you can tell the story behind the numbers.
Comfortable with long hours when deals are live and stakes are high.
Curious, humble, and coachable - willing to learn fast and iterate.
