Business Analyst Intern (6 Months)

Location: London

Type: Full time internship/ 6 months

Accessible rail travel depends on systems that work reliably in live environments.

Our Passenger Assistance Management System turns passenger assistance requests into coordinated action inside live rail operations.

We are looking for an analytically strong and highly organised intern to support our CEO across investor-related activity, executive preparation and selected strategic projects. The role combines rigorous analysis with high-quality coordination and administrative execution.

You will help prepare investor and leadership materials, organise information, coordinate actions, analyse business and market data, and ensure that important work moves forward accurately and on time. You will own clearly defined workstreams, with frequent working sessions and direct feedback from the CEO.

This role is well suited to a recent graduate or current Master's student considering a career in venture capital, private equity, strategy consulting, corporate finance or a high-growth startup, and who wants first-hand experience of how strategic and investment-related work is managed from inside a scale-up.

Strategic Context

Transreport builds accessibility technology for transport operators. Our vision is: Everyone has access to travel everywhere.

Our platform connects passenger assistance requests and access needs with operational delivery by frontline staff, helping transport operators coordinate accessible journeys more reliably. We operate across the UK, Japan and Europe, have supported more than 10 million assistance requests for over 1.8 million users, and have been recognised with a King's Award.

Tasks

• Support the CEO in preparing investor presentations, briefing notes, meeting materials and follow-up actions.
• Coordinate documents, requests, deadlines and open questions across investment-related workstreams.
• Prepare clear and accurate financial, commercial and market analysis using Excel and other tools.
• Turn complex information into concise, logically structured PowerPoint presentations.
• Research investors, markets, competitors and relevant industry developments.
• Check that figures, assumptions and messages are consistent across materials.
• Track actions arising from meetings and help ensure that commitments are followed through.
• Support selected CEO-led strategic projects, from initial research through to final recommendation or output.
• Handle commercially sensitive information with discretion and appropriate judgement.

What Success Looks Like

• You quickly build a strong understanding of Transreport's business model, financial drivers and strategic priorities.
• The CEO can rely on your materials, analysis and action tracking without needing to recheck basic details.
• Investor and leadership discussions are better prepared, better documented and followed through more consistently.
• You identify inconsistencies, missing information and risks early rather than passing them on.
• You become a trusted contributor who can take ownership of defined workstreams with regular review.

Requirements

• Good understanding of core financial concepts, including P&L, cash flow and business cases.
• Strong Excel skills and the ability to produce clear, accurate analysis.

• Exceptional attention to detail and the discipline to check facts, calculations and assumptions.
• High personal accountability, strong organisation and comfort managing several moving parts.

Who This Role Will Suit

• A recent graduate or current Master's student who wants direct operating experience.
• Someone who enjoys both analytical problem-solving and meticulous execution.
• A candidate who is ambitious but not motivated mainly by title, prestige or proximity to senior leadership.
• Someone comfortable receiving direct feedback, revising work quickly and taking responsibility for quality.
• A person who can work with ambiguity without waiting for every instruction to be fully defined.

Why Join Transreport

You will work directly with the CEO on important company priorities and gain a practical view of how a Series A scale-up prepares for investor discussions, evaluates strategic choices and communicates with senior stakeholders. The internship offers meaningful responsibility, close feedback and exposure to both the analytical and executional work behind high-stakes business decisions.

Interview Process

Our process is designed to assess how you think, organise information and communicate.

• Introductory interview: a 30-minute discussion about your motivation, analytical experience, financial understanding and working style.
• Practical case and final discussion: a short exercise involving Excel analysis, a concise PowerPoint output and a discussion of your approach, assumptions and conclusions.

Compensation details will be shared with shortlisted candidates before the first interview.
