Looking for a sharp, motivated English-speaking student who wants real, hands-on exposure to how acquisition deals are sourced and evaluated in the transportation and logistics space. This is a selective, unpaid internship focused on deal origination and target sourcing — not busywork.
What you’ll be doing:
– Learning and executing a proven deal origination playbook
– Finding, researching, and initially screening acquisition targets across trucking companies, freight brokerages, and 3PLs nationwide
This is a great fit if you’re interested in:
– Search funds, private equity, or entrepreneurship through acquisition
– Finance, operations, strategy, or logistics
– Getting real M&A & deal exposure instead of hypothetical case studies
– Direct investor mentorship and structured feedback
– Skills that set you apart in finance careers
Why this isn’t fluff:
– You’ll be working directly on live acquisition efforts
– You’ll see how targets are identified, vetted, and prioritized in the real world
– Strong performance can lead to references and deeper involvement over time
Requirements:
– Currently enrolled in university (Finance, Economics, Business, or Entrepreneurship preferred)
– Commit ~5 hours/week + attend 1 weekly virtual meeting
– Own computer and reliable internet
FAQ:
