We are hiring an Investment Banking Analyst
Pairs is a global network of family offices, institutional investors, VCs and angels. We screen deal flow very tightly, and the opportunities that clear our diligence go out to the network. We invest alongside them too.
THE ROLE
This role sits on the investor side of Pairs. In banking you built the investor lists and drafted the outreach. Here you run it end to end: you find the right investors, open the conversation, and book them into meetings with founders whose opportunity fits.
The work rewards rigour. Every list is qualified before it is used, every message is written for the person receiving it, and every reply gets a next step.
We are not raising a fund. Our investors invest directly in companies, so the work is about family offices, high-net-worth individuals, angels and funds that back companies directly. Our model is introductions and relationship management, not deal execution.
Our platform handles the pipeline, research and follow-up. Your time goes to investor conversations, and to learning which investors are ready to commit capital.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will work directly with the two co-founders and our investor team, on a process that already works. The organisation is flat, so you will see first-hand how we screen opportunities, what we decline and why.
This is an early-career role. The pace is high, and the people who do well here keep the quality high with it.
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
- Investor lists. Who fits each opportunity by stage, sector, check size and recent activity, qualified before anyone is contacted.
- First conversations. Messages that read like a person wrote them, and replies turned into calls.
- Investor meetings. Qualified investors booked with founders, with the context they need before the call.
- Accurate records. Every conversation, meeting and outcome logged, so nothing is lost between calls.
YOU ARE A FIT IF YOU
- Have worked as an analyst in investment banking, M&A advisory, corporate finance or capital advisory, and have built investor or buyer lists on live processes.
- Know the difference between a long list and a qualified one, and can explain how you get from one to the other.
- Can write a short, specific message to a busy investor that gets a reply.
- Keep your pace high without letting quality slip, and follow a process without needing a reminder.
- Treat discretion as second nature. Please do not include any investor names in your application.
- Use AI tools daily, with clear judgement about where they improve your work and where they would compromise its quality.
