Lazard's Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) team in Paris is seeking a highly motivated finance student with strong regional language skills and previous finance/consulting internship experience. The role offers an opportunity to work on cross-border M&A, debt advisory, and restructuring transactions across multiple sectors with an internationally recognized investment banking team.
Primary responsibilities include preparing presentation materials for M&A, ECM, DCM, and sovereign advisory transactions, performing company valuations using advanced financial techniques, supporting ongoing transaction execution, and collaborating with Lazard's global banking network.
Candidates must have excellent academic credentials, strong previous experience in finance or consulting, and fluency in a Central and Eastern European regional language. International background and deep understanding of the CEE region are critical, with non-EU students expected to manage work permit requirements independently.
The internship provides exposure to high-profile transactions, working alongside experienced bankers in a prestigious investment banking environment. In 2024, the team received the Euromoney Award for CEE's Best Bank for Advisory, offering unparalleled learning and networking opportunities in investment banking.
