Programme overview:
Internships are a great opportunity to experience first-hand the possibilities of a career in banking. It is your chance to get a feel for our culture, create new networks and gain valuable on-the-job training. Internships are also the perfect preparation for a subsequent full time role. Nomura will extend full time offers to strong performers.
What’s your role?
Investment Banking interns are placed in the Italian coverage team. The internship will last for 6 months and successful interns can receive a full-time offer subject to performance throughout the period.
Nomura’s Italian coverage team capitalizes on a longstanding track-record of successfully executed M&A transactions, leveraging on a dedicated team with significant IB expertise based in Milan. Recent transactions include the advisory role to CVC in a potential investment in TIM and to Bain Capital in the acquisition of Deltatre. The team covers all sectors across Italy, hence the learning curve for an intern is particularly steep.
The team works in strict cooperation with other Nomura’s teams who provide country and industry expertise on an opportunistic basis, supporting local team from the origination to the execution phase. The Italian coverage team also works alongside other Nomura’s product teams to address client needs with a full IB proposition.
As part of this team, you will:
- support senior colleagues on the preparation of process documentation, valuation analysis and preparation of M&A pitches
- receive first hand exposure to origination and execution projects with a rapidly increasing level of responsibility
- cooperate with Nomura colleagues based in other geographies
- develop strong presentation and analytical skills, through daily use of Microsoft PowerPoint and Excel
What are we looking for?
At Nomura our goal is to attract and develop exceptionally talented people who share our passion for individual excellence and our commitment to teamwork. We recruit graduates and interns with a high level of academic and extra-curricular achievement, who will be able to withstand the rigours of a rapidly changing, demanding but ultimately rewarding environment.
Fluency in Italian and English is essential.
