PWP Early Careers
Your Internship and Beyond
Our relentless commitment to excellence means that we only hire the best of the best – and when we find it, we don’t let it go easily. If you’re a brilliant thinker and exceptional communicator, the chances are good that we’ll make you a full-time offer at the end of your internship. In fact, more than half of PWP Interns convert to Graduate Analysts after university.
Our Firm is constantly evolving, and we want you to grow with us. With the right attitude, intelligence, passion for change and commitment to world-class client service, there’s no stopping what you can achieve.
We have completed hiring for our 2021 Summer Analyst programme in London and Munich.
The PWP Graduate Analyst Programme
Graduate Analysts who join our advisory platform have a truly distinctive experience. PWP offers an entrepreneurial culture where Analysts interact with senior advisors and clients, and make meaningful contributions from the start to high profile, complex engagements and transactions.
After joining, Analysts will begin their programme with a global 4-week intensive training agenda combined with the US Analyst class. Here, Analysts are encouraged to develop connections and build the foundations of their network. Our apprenticeship model encourages you to observe and comprehend the nuances of each transaction, and Analysts are expected to take on an outsized level of responsibility from the outset.
While you need to demonstrate a thorough grasp of financial concepts, what’s even more important is a high degree of intellectual curiosity, a strong work ethic, and a positive and collaborative attitude.

Off Cycle Internships
Our January and July Off Cycle internships will give you the opportunity to work as a valued member of a sector/deal team from day one. During the six months you spend with PWP, you will receive on-the-job training and guidance and contribute to providing a broad range of advisory services to the Firm’s clients.
We have completed hiring for our January Off Cycle programme. We will be providing further information on time-frames for our July 2021 Off Cycle recruiting shortly.
