About our client

Our client is an entrepreneurial private investment firm with a strong track record of building and developing industrial technology and manufacturing businesses across the DACH region.

This role combines analytical work on new deal opportunities with direct, on-site engagement at the portfolio level. Based in Munich, the position involves regular travel across the DACH region and offers the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the development of industrial businesses from within.
