What team members say about us
Viktor Meier
From Analyst to Partner
“Whenever the moment came that I was thinking about a new path, I was offered an interesting alternative here to take on more responsibility and grow.”
Anette Cooper
From Strategic Consultant to Vice President
“I have been on the team for over a decade. I support medium-sized businesses in company acquisitions or even sales – in the DACH region and cross-border – in moments that change companies and entrepreneurs alike. Seeing how I can accompany founders to their destination is a great feeling.”
Ozan Uluca
Vice President
“The change was easy for me: convincing interviews and an M&A consultancy with an international network that has been successful for decades. True team spirit characterizes our collaboration.”
What interns say about us
“My internship at Pava was a very instructive and interesting experience. I worked in the Leipzig office in the Strategic Consulting department for three months. I was allowed to work on various projects and initiatives, which gave me an in-depth insight into the respective industry. My task wishes were actively asked for and considered, which further expanded my already diverse wealth of experience.
In particular, I learned to appreciate the incomparable company culture. There was a strong sense of community, especially among interns and younger employees, even outside the office. I am also grateful for my time in Leipzig, a city that I had greatly underestimated in advance and that has some really beautiful aspects.
I am grateful to the whole team for my time there and can only recommend Pava as a place to do an internship!”
Antonio Bernhardi
January 2025 – March 2025
“My time as an intern at Pava Partners was an incredibly rewarding dive into the world of mergers and acquisitions. From the outset, I was impressed by the firm’s commitment to integrating interns into meaningful work—I wasn’t just observing; I was actively contributing to live deals.
Seeing how senior team members approached complex problems—from structuring deals to managing stakeholder dynamics—was an unparalleled learning experience.
What stood out most was Pava Partners’ culture of excellence and mentorship. Feedback was always constructive, pushing me to refine my work while helping me build confidence in my abilities.”
Sanzhar Ilesov
December 2024 – March 2025
“My three-month internship in Financial Consulting at Pava Partners in Leipzig was an extremely rewarding and exciting experience. From the very beginning, I was optimally prepared for my tasks through a structured and smooth onboarding process, so that I was able to actively participate in projects from the second day on.
During my internship I gained deep insights into the entire M&A deal cycle. I was particularly impressed by the fact that interns at Pava are given full responsibility right from the start and are integrated into projects as full team members. This deep involvement and the steep learning curve made the internship particularly valuable.
The open and appreciative communication culture at Pava should also be emphasized. The exchange at eye level – from the intern to the partners – and the recognition of one’s own work create an exceptionally pleasant working atmosphere. Through the close cooperation, I was able to not only develop my professional skills, but also make valuable contacts that I will maintain beyond the internship.
I am very grateful for the opportunity to have been part of this dynamic and educational environment!”
Oliver Geupel
October 2024 – December 2024
“Dynamic, rewarding, varied – that’s what my internship was like. It has been a great pleasure to be part of a dynamic and international team of professional investment bankers working on exciting, entrepreneurial projects in emerging industries. I appreciate the opportunity I had to improve my technical skills and build on the academic knowledge I gained in school. The opportunity to receive constant feedback and suggestions for improvement from experienced bankers is invaluable.
I have lived in many cities – from Shanghai to Berlin, from Cologne to Paris – but the city of Leipzig is a pearl that I will miss very much.”
Yihe Zhao
February 2023 – April 2023
“Many thanks for the support last year within the framework of the Deutschlandstipendium. This made it possible for me to organize my studies more carefree and to concentrate on essential things.”
