Your Mission
Join our newly established origination team and work at the intersection of two things we care deeply about: finding great companies, and building an AI-forward way of working.
In this 50/50 role, you'll spend half your time on hands-on deal origination across our private and growth equity strategies - and the other half building AI-powered workflows that make our team (and the broader firm) faster and sharper.
It's a rare chance to develop a newly set-up origination function and to be at the forefront of applied AI inside a real business.

Your Responsibilities
- Deal Origination
- Support active sourcing through focused research and company identification that feeds our pipeline
- Prepare for industry fairs and events - identifying relevant ones, building target lists, and supporting follow-up
- Draft tailored, high-quality outreach to potential investment targets
- Run expert and advisor searches to support founder conversion or deal assessment
- AI & Workflows
- Build and refine AI-powered workflows that automate repetitive origination steps - outreach drafting, DD work, operations tasks
- Prototype internal AI tools, agents, and "skills" together with our Head of Internal AI
- Support AI enablement across the broader firm, helping teams adopt AI in their day-to-day
- Spot new automation opportunities and continuously improve what's already running
Your Profile
- Currently pursuing a Master's (preferred) or finishing a Bachelor's degree, ideally in business, economics, or a related field
- Genuinely at the forefront of using AI - you experiment constantly, use AI tools daily across your work and life, and have a strong instinct for what's possible. (You don't need to be a developer or regular coder.)
- A solid understanding of business and the investment world - you can quickly grasp why a company is interesting and communicate it crisply. (A heavy banking/consulting analytical background is not required.)
- Structured, independent, and proactive working style, with excellent written and verbal communication
- Reliable and happy to work regularly on-site at our Munich office
- Fluency in both German and English, spoken and written
- Valid work permit for Germany (mandatory)
- Available for a 3, preferably 6 month full-time internship
**One thing we'd love to see:** In your application, tell us about something you've built, automated, or meaningfully improved using AI - a workflow, a tool, a side project, anything.
Why us?
- Build, don't slot in. You'll help create an origination function and an AI-native way of working from the ground up - not plug into a fixed process.
- Unusual access. You'll work side by side with our origination team and Head of Internal AI, with exposure to how AI strategy gets set at the top of the firm.
- Real ownership. The workflows and tools you build get used by colleagues across an ~80-person firm. Your work is visible and it matters.
- Breadth. Across our three investment strategies, you'll get exposure to diverse industries, business models, and markets.
- Entrepreneurial DNA. Backed by entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial families, we move with a long-term mindset and a genuinely flexible mandate.
