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.
The team’s principal areas of activity include:
- Single-Asset Continuation Funds
- Multi-Asset Continuation Funds
- Equity Recapitalisations
- Tender Offers
GP-led secondary transactions sit at the intersection of investment banking, private equity and private capital markets. The team advises clients on situations requiring detailed analysis of underlying portfolio companies, fund structures, valuation, transaction dynamics and investor considerations.
The Opportunity
The GP Advisory team is seeking penultimate-year university students to join its Summer Internship Programme.
The programme is designed for students who are considering a career in investment banking and are interested in gaining first-hand experience across private equity and the secondary market.
Summer Interns will work as part of the deal team on live mandates and business development assignments, gaining direct exposure to the execution of GP-led secondary and structured transactions for private equity sponsors.
The internship is designed to provide experience comparable to the day-to-day responsibilities of an investment banking analyst. Summer Interns will work alongside analysts, associates and senior bankers and will contribute to the financial analysis, transaction materials and execution work required to deliver advice to clients.
Given the nature of GP Advisory, interns will also develop an understanding of both the underlying portfolio companies being evaluated and the broader fund- and sponsor-level considerations that influence private capital transactions.

- The ability to organise and prioritise work effectively in a demanding transaction environment
- A proactive approach and willingness to take ownership of assigned work
- The ability to work effectively as part of a collaborative deal team

Candidates should be motivated by the opportunity to work on complex transactions requiring both detailed company-level analysis and an understanding of broader private equity fund and capital dynamics.
