Job description

• Premium gym membership and other benefits

Start Date:

ASAP

Location:

Paris, France (office on the iconic Champs-Élysées), with frequent short trips in Europe and the UK.

Why this role is different

You will move between Climate Tech, HealthTech, Biopharma, infrastructure and more, working alongside sector specialists who advise founders and company leaders at pivotal moments: raising capital, making acquisitions, going public or preparing for their next stage of growth.

Your job is to bring that ecosystem together in ways that build the brand and support the business.

You will bring private equity investors together at Oktoberfest one week, then infrastructure investors at a museum cocktail reception in Berlin the next. Launch a VC cocktail event at an artsy hotel in Stockholm, then organise a skybar dinner for secondaries funds and founders exploring direct secondary transactions.

A founder’s perspective can become an interview. An investor’s insight can become a compelling article. A conversation at a dinner could be the first spark of a deal your colleagues go on to advise.

What You Will Do

Each event is a starting point: turn the collective intelligence in the room into content people want to read, watch and discuss. Build connections that last beyond the event—and open doors to what comes next.

• Deliver events across Europe: from founder dinners to investor conferences, own the audience, budget, logistics and experience.
• Turn expertise into compelling content: write invitations, LinkedIn posts, newsletters and interviews that bring our bankers’ insights and clients’ stories to life.
• Connect events and communications: build interest before, capture ideas during and keep conversations going afterwards.
• Make it count: sharpen targeting, support banker follow-up and measure what worked.
• Make things happen: bring ideas, coordinate colleagues and agencies, and keep delivery on track without compromising quality or confidentiality.

Who you are

• Master's degree in Marketing, Finance, Communications, or a related field.
• 3–8 years of relevant professional experience in marketing, communications, events, or a related discipline.
• Previous experience in financial services is a plus.
• Fluency in English is required, both written and spoken.
• You take ownership. You do not just pass on a request: you clarify the objective, find a way forward and see it through.
• You are resourceful and versatile. You can write sharp copy, brief a speaker, challenge a supplier and troubleshoot on-site. You enjoy both thinking and doing.
• You have grit and composure. When plans change or deadlines tighten, you stay clear-headed, adapt and keep things moving. You flag risks early and bring solutions.
• You have commercial curiosity. You want to understand the companies, people and transactions behind the brief—and why your audience should care.
• You are confident and exacting. You can hold your own with senior stakeholders, chase a missing answer diplomatically and protect the details that make the difference.
• You back your team. You communicate directly, share the load and step in where needed. You care about the collective result, not just your part.

What We Offer

• An international, collaborative environment with ambition, energy and room to make your mark.
• Direct exposure to senior investment bankers, leading European growth companies and their investors.
• A role at the heart of the action, working alongside bankers advising companies on fundraising, strategic transactions and their next stage of growth.
• The opportunity to have a visible impact on one of the fastest-growing European investment banking platforms.
