Programme Description

Blackstone's Summer Analyst Programme is a 10-week in-person experience offering extensive exposure across the firm. It provides guidance through mentorship, continuous feedback, technical and soft-skills training, networking opportunities, and immersion in Blackstone’s culture.

Job Description

Summer Analysts will work closely with the investment team on sourcing, due diligence, and the execution of investment opportunities. This program is suited for highly ambitious candidates who have developed strong financial, analytical, commercial, and research skills through investing, academic work, and professional experience.

Summer Analysts will have the opportunity to participate in all aspects of projects and be staffed on several assignments simultaneously.

Summer Analyst work may include:

• Industry and thematic research and competitive analysis
• Financial analysis, valuation, and modelling
• Execution of transactions (including meetings and interactions with management teams as part of due diligence)
• Provide overall support to the investment team
