Internship - Investment Banking Analyst (Summer 2027)

Investment Banking Summer Analyst Fireclay Partners is building a technology-native investment bank. Summer Analysts join live deal teams and are expected to combine rigorous financial thinking with a builder's instinct. You will use AI, programming, automation, structured data, and proprietary technology to produce better work-not simply replicate legacy banking processes faster.

What You Will Do Support pitch materials, information memoranda, buyer lists, data rooms, and other workstreams for live and prospective M&A transactions. Conduct market, company, and competitive research and translate it into clear analysis. Build valuations using public comparables, precedent transactions, and discounted cash flow methods. Work with bankers to structure data, improve research quality, and automate repeatable tasks. Develop or improve a useful tool, workflow, or automation during the internship. Who Thrives Here Students with an outstanding academic record in finance, accounting, economics, computer science, engineering, applied mathematics, statistics, data science, or a related field. Demonstrated interest in investment banking and genuine curiosity about how technology can improve professional judgment and execution. Strong Excel and PowerPoint skills, analytical writing, communication, and attention to detail. A builder mentality and evidence that you have built, automated, or programmed something useful-such as a script, application, model, data workflow, or research tool. Sound judgment: you verify sources, calculations, assumptions, and AI-assisted outputs and handle confidential information with discipline. Prior banking experience is helpful but not required. We care about intellectual horsepower, initiative, judgment, and the ability to learn quickly.
