Analyst - Private Equity Secondaries

Selby Jennings London, United Kingdom
A leading global private markets investment firm is seeking an Analyst to join its Private Equity Secondaries team in London. The platform is highly active in the secondaries space, deploying significant capital annually across a broad range of transaction types - including GP-led deals, LP portfolio acquisitions, and structured/complex secondaries (such as spin-outs, direct investments, fund recapitalisations and special situations).

The Role

As an Analyst, you'll play a hands-on part across the full deal lifecycle, including:

  • Sourcing, screening and running due diligence on European secondary opportunities (both LP and GP-led)
  • Engaging directly with management teams and fund managers to carry out detailed asset- and portfolio-level analysis
  • Conducting quantitative and qualitative research, financial modelling and valuation across sectors, geographies and stages
  • Preparing and presenting due diligence materials and investment committee memoranda
  • Forming and articulating a clear investment view, and defending it in a team setting including IC discussions
  • Supporting deal structuring, closing coordination and ongoing monitoring of portfolio investments
  • Occasional travel for on-site due diligence and sponsor meetings


What We're Looking For

  • A strong academic background
  • 1-2 years' experience in private equity, top-tier investment banking, and/or consulting
  • Excellent quantitative, modelling and valuation skills, with sound investment judgement and a keen sense of risk/reward
  • A genuine appetite for self-directed learning - particularly around AI and automation, with hands-on experimentation a plus
  • A proactive, creative problem-solver who can work independently
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to juggle multiple workstreams with excellent attention to detail
  • A positive, collaborative attitude
  • Fluent written and spoken English (additional languages a bonus)
