Looking for a way to learn more than books can teach you? We’re hiring an ambitious Private Equity intern from Nova School of Business and Economics who want to mix studies with gaining hands-on experience in a fast-moving entrepreneurial environment.

About the Opportunity

This is a unique opportunity to gain real-world venture and investment experience, working alongside and being mentored by founders who have built and exited multiple businesses — including companies that went on to list on the NYSE.

The role is designed for students eager to combine their studies with hands-on exposure to venture building, startups, and investments . You’ll be expected to bring drive, curiosity, and the energy to juggle both academia and practical, high-impact work.

About Nova Founders Capital

Nova Founders Capital is a global operational investment group that creates and invests in business models of the future. Our management team has launched 30+ companies over the last 10 years, achieving multiple exits through sale and IPO — backed by world-class investors including Goldman Sachs, Alibaba, Peter Thiel, and The World Bank.

We take ownership, solve problems, scale solutions and move fast together. We believe great people want freedom, impact, and challenge – and we’re building a place where all three thrive.

What We’re Looking For

  • Students in their final year of Bachelor’s or Master’s
  • Strong academic track record
  • Entrepreneurial mindset — you’re curious, resourceful, and excited to learn in fast-moving environments
  • Excellent analytical and research skills
  • Strong communication skills in English
  • Interest in private equity, venture capital, and entrepreneurship
  • Ability to balance academic commitments with part-time (20 hours a week) or full-time work

Why Join Us?

  • Fast-track your career by working directly with seasoned entrepreneurs and investors
  • Gain hands-on experience in venture capital, startups, and entrepreneurship — while still studying
  • Be part of a dynamic, international, and entrepreneurial environment
  • Learn from a team that has launched 30+ companies and raised capital from world-leading investors
  • Mentorship and exposure to high-level decision making
