Who we are

Indefi is a fast-growing strategy consulting firm serving financial investors - including private equity specialists, diversified asset managers, and wealth managers. Founded in 2007, we are now a team of 80+ consultants based in Paris, London, Lyon, and Madrid.

We operate through three business units:

• Corporate Strategy: We deliver strategic development projects for global asset managers, including business strategy, market entry, distribution strategy, product development, inorganic growth, and investment process enhancement.

• Private Equity: We support private equity firms throughout the deal life cycle, helping them make better investment decisions and generate stronger returns. We also advise on firm strategy and development to drive value creation.

• Sustainability Advisory: We help clients design and implement their Responsible Investment strategy and operating model. Working across the investment value chain, we support investors and portfolio companies in defining and embedding their ESG and sustainability ambitions.

To support the growth of our Corporate Strategy practice’s London office, we are recruiting summer / off-cycle interns to join our fast-growing team:
