Job description: Our mission and objectives

• British International Investment is the UK’s development finance institution, owned by the UK Government. We invest with the aim of solving the biggest global development challenges by investing patient, flexible capital to support private sector growth and innovation.
• We have 75 years of experience successfully supporting the sustainable, long-term growth of businesses in Africa and Asia, and have recently expanded to invest in the Indo-Pacific and Caribbean.
• We invest to achieve impact and a financial return which is then reinvested for more impact. Over the past five years, we have committed almost £7 billion of new investments, with our net assets growing in value to approximately £7.7 billion. We are now invested in 1,200 businesses which directly employ over 900,000 workers and support many more. Over the next five years, we plan to grow further, and aim to commit around £9 billion of new investments over the period.
• Our new five-year strategy responds to the opportunities and challenges facing developing and emerging economies. To ensure our capital is used in the best way possible to meet these opportunities and challenges, it sets out three clear strategic objectives – to invest in productive, sustainable and inclusive development. These objectives mean an increased focus on climate finance, including investing in green infrastructure; on financing digital transformation; and on driving inclusive outcomes, including through gender and diversity finance.
• We changed our name to British International Investment in 2022, to more accurately reflect our central role in the UK Government’s international financing offer.
• In the last few years, we have expanded our presence in Africa and Asia by opening new offices in Bangladesh, Egypt, Kenya, Myanmar, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Ghana and Singapore; with further expansion planned.
• We take an entrepreneurial approach to investment. We think innovatively about ways to deploy our capital, attract, and mobilise other investors, and drive transformational impact.
• Deliver impact. We are a growing team of over 600 and place immense value on diversity within our organisation.

The Role

If you are interested in supporting the building of businesses in Africa and Asia, to create jobs and make a lasting impact on people’s lives, then our 8 to 10-week internship is for you.

As well as being offered meaningful work, working with diverse teams, you will also partake in a project with your intern colleagues. You will have a comprehensive induction, attend networking sessions and our speaker series.

The Team

Making equity investments is central to our strategy. Such investments allow us to invest capital in businesses that provide significant employment opportunities and potential for strong growth. The Technology & Telecoms team invests either solely or by co-investing with other institutional investors and local GPs across Africa and South Asia.

The Technology & Telecoms Equity team is focussed on two primary themes: direct equity investments into larger, more established companies, and venture capital investments into earlier stage companies. There are five levels in each team – Associate, Executive, Manager, Director & Team Leader. However, the team operates in a very flat structure, allowing employees at all levels to get involved in the real detail, and in representational work, both to Investment Committee and externally.

Responsibilities

The primary role will be to support the deal teams. This will include assisting with:

• Analysing new investment proposals and deal opportunities, including conducting financial analysis/modelling, valuation exercises, market research, etc.;
• Performing discrete project work around sector mapping to identify potential opportunities and to help develop investment theses; and
• Support post-transaction management of portfolio companies

Specific responsibilites will be driven by priorities and needs of the subsector teams at the time, but are expected to include some or all of the following:

Evaluation of new investment proposals:

• Initial filtering of investment proposals for opportunities that are consistent with BII’s developmental and investment mandate
• Analysing financial information and building financial models
• Assisting with reports to be presented to the Investment Committee for approval and participating in the meetings
• Conducting a detailed valuation of a company using various methods
• Assisting with the due diligence on a specific company, sector, and country

Research:

• Undertaking research into regions, countries and specific sectors on an ad-hoc basis. This will include providing support to sector mapping exercises
• Undertaking research into specific businesses or projects including traveling to meet management teams and advisers
• Keeping up to date with market developments and monitoring factors that can affect the markets and considering how these might affect the pipeline and portfolio companies
• Monitoring the financial news and updating the team of material information in the target countries, sector and companies

Portfolio Monitoring:

• Preparing periodic reports and working with the deal teams to help in the monitoring of investees’ financial and strategic performance, including compliance with BII’s Environment, Social and Governance requirements

• Demonstrable business experience, preferably in private equity, investment banking, equity research, corporate finance, or strategy consulting

• Demonstration of identity with BII’s proposition including:

• A desire and passion to be part of BII’s strategy and participate in its work
• Evidence of high performance standards in previous positions
