Alder is a Stockholm-based private equity firm dedicated to creating opportunities for environmentally sustainable companies to accelerate growth and development. Central to our investment thesis and values is the conviction that sustainability and long-term value creation are intertwined. With a focus on small- and mid-cap companies in Northern Europe, with established business models and high growth potential, we invest in companies that drive both economic and environmental benefits.
Alder has ~€500m in assets under management and has recently launched its third fund, currently being invested.

• Supporting the team and portfolio company management in value creation initiatives
• We are looking for an ambitious individual, fluent in Swedish and English, to join our team in Stockholm for a 6-12 month full-time internship starting spring or fall 2025.
