Your role
Interested in working in finance, specifically to support business clients, but not sure where to start? Do you want to work for a firm with a truly global footprint?
We’re looking for ambitious students to join our 2026 Off-cycle Internship Program within our Corporate and Institutional Clients (CIC) business in Switzerland.
You’ll get to:
- support the Growth Advisory team in the sourcing of potential equity fundraising and growth credit transactions, leveraging not only the corporate clients, WM but also the bank’s external networks

- keep the team’s marketing documentation up to date and liaise with client advisors on the corporate and WM side on potential enquiries
- support the team in marketing, administrative, event related, process, reporting and controlling activities
Your team
You’ll be working in the UBS Growth Advisory team, which is part of the Swiss Corporate Finance department, in Zurich (Europaallee). Our team supports innovative Swiss scaleups with growth credits as well as equity fundraising services - not only by presenting such direct investment opportunities to our WM clients but also by leveraging UBS network on the corporate and institutional client’s side and through various event and partnership platforms. In over 200 transactions since 2015 we have provided the Swiss scaleup ecosystem with more than CHF 550m, both in form of growth credits and investors’ equity and have supported well-known Swiss scaleups such as for example On Shoes, VIU, Anybotics, Ecorobotix, H55 or Voliro.
Your expertise
We’re looking for a candidate who:
- has completed at least 4 semesters of a bachelor’s degree, and graduated no longer than six months ago (bachelor’s or master’s degree)
- has a competitive minimum GPA of 4.5 according to the Swiss grading system
- has excellent German and English skills (written and oral)
- has outstanding communication skills, comfortable interacting with colleagues at all seniority levels
- has an autonomous, diligent and detail-oriented work style
- has previous experience or familiarity of private equity, venture capital or M&A
- has sharp analytical and problem-solving skills
- has extensive experience with MS Office (Excel, Powerpoint)
Start date: June 1st, 2026
We’re looking for someone who’s curious and wants to thrive in a business that never stops moving. We welcome all majors, but it’s important to have an interest in the financial industry. We want to see what makes you unique and discover what you can bring to our team. Perhaps you’ve organized a fundraising event or taken part in team sports? Or stepped out of your comfort zone to learn about a subject you found challenging? Let us know how your achievements match the skills we’re after.
Your program
This paid internship will last 3 - 6 months. You’ll work with our experts and learn about the industry, our clients and our firm. You’ll be right at the heart of our business, learning from your colleagues, taking part in day-to-day operations. You’ll be given mentors along the way and will have the chance to get to know some of the most senior members of our teams.
You’ll have plenty of opportunities to develop new skills and make contacts along the way. If you like challenges, enjoy learning and want to work where no two days are the same, this program is for you.
If you have a successful internship, you may get an offer to return for our Graduate Talent Program after you’ve completed your studies.
