  • Have a relentless drive to become the very best at what you do
  • Bring outstanding energy and a positive mindset from the first hour to the last

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

You'll be supporting the Private Equity Insights team in delivering the conference for sharp insights and inspiration, and outstanding network opportunities for the PE professionals we serve. Among other things the opportunity offer:

  • Peer network: you join a select group of ambitious volunteers who will keep crossing your path for the next 40 years working in the industry.
  • Insider knowledge. Where the day allows, you can sit in on panels, the same ones attendees come to hear. In fact, we encourage you to do so.
  • Confidence under pressure: after two demanding conference days, high-stakes moments at work will feel easier.
  • Master persuasion: learn to influence high-caliber professionals to deliver win-win results.
  • A certificate to show on your CV and LinkedIn that you volunteered at Private Equity Insights.
  • Fuel: food and refreshments on both days.
  • Global programme: The long term opportunity to lead teams and become the person who shows the way for others, or even join Private Equity Insights full time.

The role

Ready to take a major leap towards private equity, M&A, banking or consulting? This is your chance to get a view behind the scenes of the world's largest private equity community and be part of the volunteer team shaping the future of finance.

Challenge yourself to go outside your comfort zone with likeminded individuals who for two days will be your partners in the trenches facilitating the room of top-of-the pyramid PE professionals.

What you'll do

This is hands-on, operational work focusing on making the conference run. The work changes hour by hour, and you are expected to step in and help wherever the conference needs you.

What the future hold for you with PE Insights

Whether you are with us for 1 conference 10+, we believe this lays the foundation for a very successful career.

Exceptional volunteers have in the past been offered roles at Private Equity Insights, such as Investor Relations or Entrepreneur in Residence.

Others have gone on to join firms such as McKinsey, BCG, JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, Ardian and Verdane.
