The organisation
What CVC Capital Partners does
CVC Capital Partners is a global private markets investor that traces its origins to 1981, when it began as the European arm of Citicorp Venture Capital before becoming an independent firm in the early 1990s. Today CVC invests across private equity, credit, secondaries and infrastructure through a network of offices worldwide, and the firm itself listed its shares on Euronext Amsterdam in 2024. It backs established companies across a wide range of sectors and geographies, typically taking controlling or influential minority stakes and working with management teams over several years.
In the Netherlands
CVC Capital Partners in the Netherlands
CVC has an office in Amsterdam, part of its global network of local offices, staffed by a deal team that works on investments in the Netherlands and the wider Benelux region. It is a genuinely global firm, and its Amsterdam presence should be understood as a focused local deal team rather than a large employer in the way a domestic Dutch firm would be. Students interested in CVC would typically be looking at a small, highly selective team working on international transactions.
Structure
Divisions and where you work
CVC organises its investment activity by strategy (private equity, credit, secondaries, infrastructure) and by regional and sector deal teams within those strategies. Local offices such as Amsterdam house deal teams that source and execute transactions in their region, supported by central functions elsewhere in the network. Graduates who join tend to do so as analysts or associates within a specific deal team, most often after earlier experience in investment banking or consulting.
Getting in
How students start here
CVC occasionally offers internships in its European offices, but permanent analyst and associate roles are highly selective and, as at most large buyout firms, are typically filled by candidates who already have a year or more of experience in investment banking or consulting rather than students hired straight from university. A Dutch student aiming for CVC would generally build that experience first.
