This internship sits within a real estate and development finance team, where you will help assess whether land sales, new development schemes, and adjacent opportunities make commercial sense. You will build and refine the financial models and business plans that senior decision-makers rely on, and you will prepare materials that translate complex analysis into clear recommendations. The work is central to how the team prioritises capital, evaluates projects, and communicates with investors.

• Support the shaping and rollout of strategy for both established and newly formed business areas, working under the direction of more experienced colleagues.
• Help keep investor information memoranda accurate and current for real estate and related projects.
• Participate in deal sourcing and execution, taking on assigned workstreams as deals progress.
• Apply appropriate valuation methods, accounting principles, and financial-market knowledge to models, analyses, and recommendations.
• Manage several concurrent tasks and deadlines in a fast-moving environment while maintaining analytical rigour.
