arKap & Co is an advisory firm headquartered in Zurich (CH), with offices in Lugano (CH), Turin (IT) and Milan (IT), and a structured expansion plan across Europe.
We support European SMEs and Principal Investors on Corporate Finance and strategic matters, with a clear focus on value creation and long-term positioning.
Our approach is entrepreneurial, execution-driven and highly selective.
Overview of the Role
For our Turin office, we are seeking a Corporate Finance & Business Development Analyst Intern starting in March 2026.
The role combines exposure to transaction advisory and strategic business development within a growing international boutique.
You will support both:
* the early stages of M&A and strategic advisory projects
* the firm's origination and deal-sourcing strategy
This position offers direct exposure to transaction sourcing, financial analysis, market positioning and relationship development within a high-performance advisory environment.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Corporate Finance & Transactions
* Support the team in the early phases of M&A and strategic mandates
* Conduct structured research on M&A transactions, Private Equity activity and sector trends across Europe
* Assist in target screening and preliminary strategic assessment (buyers / sellers)
* Contribute to financial analysis (initial valuation work, financial statement review, benchmarking)
* Prepare draft pitch materials, teasers and internal investment memos
* Support long list / short list preparation and strategic positioning for mandates
Business Development & Origination
* Contribute to the firm's deal sourcing strategy through structured market mapping and investor profiling
* Support investor and corporate relationship intelligence (Principal Investors, PE funds, industrial buyers)
* Assist in building and refining outreach materials and positioning documents
* Manage and enhance the firm's CRM ecosystem as a strategic tool (pipeline tracking, segmentation, relationship monitoring, origination analytics)
This is not a purely operational CRM role. It is a strategic exposure to how an advisory firm builds and institutionalises origination.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
* Bachelor's / Master's students in Economics, Finance, Management, Engineering or related fields (or close to completion)
* Strong analytical skills, intellectual curiosity and business judgment
* Attention to detail combined with strategic thinking
* Ability to work both independently and in a team
* Excellent knowledge of MS Office 365
* Fluency in English and Italian (additional languages are a plus)
* Availability to work on-site in Turin
We value ambition, accountability and an entrepreneurial mindset.
WHAT WE OFFER
* Curricular Internship (3 + 3 months)
* Direct exposure to real transactions and strategic discussions
* A performance-driven and meritocratic environment
* Concrete learning in both Corporate Finance and deal origination strategy
* Location: Turin (IT)
This internship is unpaid and structured as a growth-oriented experience.
The objective is not "to complete an internship", but to identify and develop high-potential individuals who may be considered for a structured career path within the firm upon successful completion.
