At Northland, our employees are the heart of our story—and we’re committed to their success! Please see below the details of this career opportunity and how it fits into our organization’s success.
Summary of the Job:
Northland Capital Markets is one of the most active investment banks serving growth companies, completing more than 50 financings in 2025 and raising more than $15 billion as sole manager over the past two years. With offices in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Ridgewood, New Jersey, the firm has advised on significant and pioneering transactions in digital infrastructure and AI. Northland pairs a full suite of capital markets products with sophisticated strategic advice, and its dedicated digital infrastructure, AI, and drones & robotics practices serve some of the fastest-growing sectors of the market. Following a series of senior banking hires that have broadened its products and services, Northland is expanding its investment banking team and seeking Analysts motivated by helping build the platform.
About This Role:
The Investment Banking Analyst Internship is the first step in Northland's investment banking career path and precedes the full-time Analyst position. Interns work on live deal teams under the guidance of Analysts and Associates, alongside senior bankers, across public equity offerings, private placements, PIPEs, convertible securities transactions, and M&A advisory engagements. The work is demanding and requires the ability to perform under pressure, meet tight deadlines, and produce accurate work on short notice. Interns build and update comparable company, precedent transaction, capitalization, and dilution analyses; prepare pitch books, management presentations, and transaction materials; conduct company, industry, and market research; and support due diligence and transaction tracking. Interns are expected to contribute meaningfully from the start, and exceptional performance is the primary pathway to a full-time Analyst offer.
