We work with hedge funds, pension funds, asset managers and family offices to provide coverage, advisory, capital markets and financing services

Your expertise

Internships in Spain must meet specific academic and regulatory requirements set by the Fundación Universidad‑Empresa (FUE), including the need for an approved university internship agreement and compliance with recent Social Security obligations. Eligibility can vary depending on each university’s policies and whether the internship is curricular or extracurricular, so students should confirm their eligibility with their institution before applying. Full details are available on the FUE website.

We’re Looking For a Candidate Who

We’re looking for someone who’s curious and wants to thrive in a business that never stops moving. We welcome all majors, but it’s important to have an interest in the financial industry. We want to see what makes you unique and discover what you can bring to our team. Perhaps you’ve organized a fundraising event or taken part in team sports? Or stepped out of your comfort zone to learn about a subject you found challenging? Let us know how your achievements match the skills we’re after.

Your program

This paid internship will last 3 - 6 months. You’ll work with our experts and learn about the industry, our clients and our firm. You’ll be right at the heart of our business, learning from your colleagues, taking part in day-to-day operations. You'll be given mentors along the way and will have the chance to get to know some of the most senior members of our teams.

You’ll have plenty of opportunities to develop new skills and make contacts along the way. If you like challenges, enjoy learning and want to work where no two days are the same, this program is for you.

If you have a successful internship, you may get an offer to return for our Graduate Talent Program after you've completed your studies.
