Hi Jules,

Astorg’s Sales / Investor Relations Intern brief looks especially focused on Advanced Excel and clear early evidence that the candidate can speak to Relevant Finance Background credibly.

That is the part of the seat I would lean into first, and I would be happy to send a concise CV version tailored around Advanced Excel if useful.

If you are the right person to ask, I would value a quick steer on whether that is the kind of signal your team looks for early on in Sales / Investor Relations Intern hires.

Best,
Candidate

Overview

This finance firm provides investors access to private technology companies through primary and secondary investment opportunities, from emerging companies to category leaders approaching major liquidity events. The firm is seeking a Sales / Investor Relations Intern to join their founding team and support their high growth trajectory.

This is a 6-month internship based in Paris, starting as soon as possible, with conversion opportunities based on performance. You will work directly with the founding team without unnecessary reporting layers and own relationships within the firm\'s investor community.

Key Responsibilities

Identify and engage high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and private investors
Develop new investor acquisition channels and strategic partnerships
Build and manage a qualified pipeline of prospective investors
Present investment opportunities to prospective investors
Participate in investor meetings and fundraising discussions
Drive prospects from initial engagement to investment commitment
Manage investor pipelines and fundraising processes through HubSpot
Support investor onboarding and transaction execution
Work directly with partners on strategic initiatives and special projects

Skills & Experience

Graduate from Grande École de Commerce or Engineering
Experience in VC, tech fundraising, or Investor Relations
Strong interest in technology, investing, and private markets
Understanding of cap tables and private market fundamentals
Comfortable making phone calls and having substantive conversations with investors
Fluent in French and English, written and spoken
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Strong interpersonal skills with enjoyment of client-facing work
Rigorous, organized, and highly autonomous
Comfortable in fast-paced, high-accountability environment
Proficient with CRM and productivity tools (HubSpot, Notion, etc.)

Why This Role Stands Out

You will gain full immersion in a fast-growing investment firm with direct exposure to companies shaping the next decade before they become widely known. The role offers live contact with high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and family offices, plus mastery of a modern fund manager\'s toolstack and deep understanding of tech private markets.

You will work on live transactions alongside a founding team that co-invests its own capital in every deal, joining at a moment when the European secondary market is still being defined.

The position includes a standard fixed salary plus comfortable performance bonus, with conversion opportunities based on performance.

Application Process

Submit application form
Pre-qualification phone call with a Partner (15 minutes)
Informal meeting with the team in the office (45 minutes)
Decision communicated before end of the week
