Growing through responsibility

From internship to private credit, a firsthand view of how collaboration and ambition drive better investments.

I started out as an investment intern at Urban Partners. What has stayed with me from the very beginning is the collaborative culture, always making use of the knowledge in the room. I felt trusted to contribute across a broad scope of deals, gaining firsthand experience of the analysis and creativity that go into making them happen.

Part of my time has also been spent at our portfolio company Klövern, a smaller, fast-paced residential developer. The close setting meant broader responsibilities and a

more hands-on perspective. It was a great pleasure to see deals progress from start to finish in such an environment.

A year into my employment, I joined the Real Estate Credit team. The deals feel familiar, but the perspective, private credit, is entirely new. The broad exposure across the company is nothing short of enlightening.

For me, what makes Urban Partners unique is the balance of financial rigor with a genuine ambition to do things differently. From sustainability to rethinking how cities evolve, there is always a drive to push the industry forward, which makes the work both challenging and meaningful.
