An international private investment firm with a strong focus on real estate is looking for a highly motivated and analytical Analyst to join its Hotels Investment Team in London. This is a rare opportunity to be part of a high-performing group with a global footprint and a deep track record in hotel acquisitions, operations, and asset management.

As an Analyst, you will play a key role in sourcing, evaluating, and executing hotel investment opportunities across multiple European geographies. The role offers a high level of responsibility from day one, working in lean deal teams and collaborating closely with senior management, joint venture partners, brokers, lenders, and internal teams.

Key Responsibilities
• Market Research: Conduct in-depth market research and analysis to identify attractive hotel investment opportunities. Analyse trends, supply-demand dynamics, and macroeconomic indicators across European markets. • Financial Analysis & Underwriting: Build complex financial models to assess potential returns, conduct sensitivity analyses, and evaluate various financing structures. You’ll also assess the overall risk-return profile of each opportunity. • Due Diligence: Support the due diligence process by reviewing legal, financial, and operational information. Coordinate with legal, tax, and accounting teams to ensure comprehensive investment evaluation. • Investment Memos & Presentations: Prepare clear and compelling investment memos and presentation materials for internal investment committees, articulating the business case, risks, and projected financial outcomes. • Acquisition & Financing Support: Assist in negotiating acquisition and financing terms, working closely with legal, tax, and capital markets teams to ensure alignment with the investment strategy.

Requirements
• Prior experience in real estate investment, investment banking, or private equity. Exposure to hotel investments is highly desirable but not essential. • Strong command of Excel, including cash flow modelling and scenario analysis (modelling skills will be assessed during the recruitment process). • Proficiency in PowerPoint and Word for creating professional-grade investment materials. • Excellent analytical and quantitative skills, with exceptional attention to detail. • Organised, with the ability to manage multiple projects under tight deadlines. • Strong judgement, communication skills, and commercial acumen. • Comfortable working independently and in team settings within a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment. • Willingness to travel on occasion across Europe.
