Investment Banking - EMEA Secondaries Advisory - Associate - London
Job Description
The EMEA Secondaries Advisory team sits within Private Capital Advisory/EMEA M&A and is part of the global Private Capital Advisory & Solutions team. The team assists sponsor clients in the creation of continuation vehicles for assets across private equity, infrastructure, credit, real estate and venture capital/growth – providing liquidity solutions to their existing institutional investors/LPs. The team works closely with country, industry, and other product teams within J.P. Morgan to deliver GP-led solutions to sponsor clients. Capital in CVs is raised through bespoke M&A-style processes and from a variety of sources including secondary investors, sovereign wealth funds, pension funds, family offices, and other institutional investors. As an Associate in the team, you will get exposure to various asset classes across all sectors and regions and benefit from strong dealflow backed by a constantly growing and rapidly evolving secondary market – answering a need for LPs to monetise their existing private market exposure.
Job Responsibilities
- Work with sponsor clients in tandem with industry / country teams to assess if a continuation vehicle is the right solution for a sponsor depending on their objectives
- Support in preparation of pitch materials to present to J.P. Morgan sponsor clients, in partnership with industry and country teams
- Support in the preparation of transaction marketing and process materials on live deals
- Prepare financial models of companies (LBO/DCF) as well as fund level modeling
- Process coordination from launch to signing, including investors outreach, Q&A and overall transaction management
- Speaking to investors on an ongoing basis to maintain dialogue and build relationships
- Given the team high deal flow and its flat hierarchical structure, you should expect to be asked to perform a great variety of tasks, including many opportunities to ‘step-up'
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
