Greenhill London’s graduate recruitment is focused on its summer internship programme, and offers for full-time analyst roles (commencing the following July after the internship) are primarily extended to exceptional summer interns. Given the start date of full time analyst roles, the Greenhill Summer Internship is primarily targeted at students in their penultimate year of study, although final year students are welcome to apply too.
Interning at Greenhill, your experience will be as close as possible to that of a first year analyst. You will be given responsibility to work independently as well as contributing as part of a broader project team, and staffed across a range of projects, industries and types of work. Our aim is to give you a real experience in the corporate advisory world, and thus to provide you with the information to decide whether this sector, or even Greenhill as a company, is a place where you would like to start your professional classic.
By treating our interns as analysts, we seek to staff you as part of a lean project team, maximising your exposure to more senior professionals whilst ensuring you are able to learn from more senior analysts and associates. Our interns regularly work on tasks directly with our Managing Directors and other senior employees–for example conducting in-depth research on a particular sector or topic in order to provide briefing materials as part of meeting preparation.
Junior employees at Greenhill remain as “generalists”, working on projects and with clients across different industries and geographies on a range of transaction types and strategic assignments. We believe this model gives you the best opportunity to gain first-hand experience of different sectors and transaction types without being “pigeonholed” into a specific sector team. The same philosophy applies for our internship programme –we will seek to give you as broad an exposure to a range of clients and transactions as possible.
Candidate profile
We are looking for bright, enthusiastic individuals who can demonstrate excellence in all areas. You will have exceptional academic credentials on track for at least a 2.1 (or equivalent), as well as having:
- A strong work ethic and the ability to perform well under pressure
- A keen eye for detail,strong numerical ability and logical reasoning
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to explain complex ideas clearly
