Barcelona, Barcelona, España Novalia Partners A tiempo completo

About the opportunity

Novalia Partners
is a Search Fund in launch based in Barcelona, led by Matthieu Gonnet, a French entrepreneur, and backed by a diverse group of investor partners (funds, family offices, and entrepreneurs).

The Search Fund model involves identifying, acquiring, and managing an SME with a solid track record, typically in generational handover or continuity-seeking situations. The objective is not a short-term investment, but to ensure the transition, consolidate the company, and boost its long-term growth, putting the experience of the partner group and the support network of the investors at the company's service.

As an intern at Novalia Partners
, you will have the opportunity to be at the heart of this process: from building the company pipeline and initial contact with owners, to strategic and financial analysis of real acquisition opportunities. This experience offers a unique immersion in the world of SME buying and selling, where you can develop key skills in investment, finance, and strategy, working closely with the entrepreneur and a group of experienced investors.
