Ardian: does its london intern sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyLondon Intern (Buyout, Infrastructure, Fund Finance and other teams)

Unconfirmed. Ardian publishes no sponsorship policy for its london intern, so we cannot state a firm answer. Ardian is a Paris-headquartered private investment house managing around 200 billion dollars across private equity, real assets and credit. It does not run a cohort graduate scheme in London; instead it posts off-cycle intern roles by team and start month on its Workday site. Live London postings when checked included Buyout Intern (November 2026), Fund Finance Intern (November 2026, posted 28 September 2026), Infrastructure Intern (November 2026 and January 2027) and a Secondaries and Primaries IT Project Management Intern. Roles ask for a degree completed or about to be completed at a leading university or business school, a minimum 2:1, and usually at least one prior internship in private equity, M&A, leveraged finance, transaction services or strategy consulting. The postings do not mention visa sponsorship or right to work.
