Based on 4 firms we followed through last season.
Today, 42 of the 78 firms we follow for private equity graduate jobs have graduate roles open for a 2027 start, 71 roles between them, and the firm table names each one.
Since the season began on 1 June 2026, 70 of these firms have posted graduate roles, and 35 of those are no longer listed.
Last season, half of the 4 firms we follow with an opening on record opened their graduate listings between 12 January 2026 and 7 May 2026, with a quarter earlier and a quarter later.
Last season, a firm's graduate listing ran for a median of 19 days, from its opening to the day it was no longer listed, over the firms with both days on record. Partners Group's Financial Analyst Program page, for students graduating between December 2026 and July 2027, gives a closing date for applications of 31 July 2026.
At Partners Group and ICG, the two private markets firms whose own pages were checked here, the graduate scheme runs for two years or more.
Partners Group's Financial Analyst Program is a two to three-year rotational program across Portfolio Solutions, Investments and Client Solutions, with at least two rotations before a full-time placement is considered, and asks for graduation between December 2026 and July 2027, outstanding academic credentials and relevant internship experience. ICG's graduate programmes are London-based two-year programmes within its investment and client relations teams, with tailored training and mentoring and the option of professional and technical qualifications such as the IMC.
This page counts private credit graduate jobs with private equity's, and the firms it follows include private credit managers such as Pemberton Asset Management and ICG.
Pemberton calls itself a leading European private credit manager, and says it recruits from experienced professionals to emerging graduates. ICG, a global alternative asset manager whose asset classes include Private Debt and Liquid Credit, runs London-based two-year graduate programmes within its investment and client relations teams.
42 firms are open for private equity graduate jobs right now, each with its own portal, documents and deadline, and 1 more firm is due to open this season. Jorb AI's application agent handles the multi-firm workload in one place, tailoring a CV and cover letter for each role you pursue and tracking each application alongside the rest.
“Opened” is the date the firm posted a role, or the day Jorb AI first saw it on the firm’s own careers site, which we check daily. “No longer listed” means the posting has been gone for a few days. Last season’s dates are shown only for firms we were already following when that season began.
Open counts every listing still open, including those first seen before 1 June; Opened this season counts only those first seen since.
