Evergreen Case Study Workshop (Undergrad)

Evergreen Services Group is a San Francisco-based holding company that acquires and operates B2B services companies across North America. Since its founding in late 2017, Evergreen has completed 100+ acquisitions across Managed IT Services, Cybersecurity, ERP Software Partners and Government Services. We are driven by a people-first mission to be the best home for businesses and their leaders, by marrying capital allocation with inspired operations.

The Evergreen holding company team is comprised of 40+ professionals based in San Francisco who are focused on capital allocation, M&A, executive level hiring, strategic board leadership, and finance and accounting. Evergreen is a uniquely long-term oriented holding company that seeks to hold and grow businesses indefinitely rather than follow the 5-7 year holding period of a typical private equity fund. This allows us to take a truly long-term view on performance and people. Evergreen is backed by Alpine Investors, a leading private equity firm focused on the services and software industries with $16B+ in AUM. 

The Opportunity

Evergreen is hosting a full-day case study workshop at our San Francisco office for first-year undergraduate freshmen interested in private equity, finance, and alternative investment strategies.

The day is designed to be an educational experience led by members of Evergreen's investing team; the workshop will give students early exposure to how a holding company thinks about sourcing, evaluating, and owning businesses over the long term. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the private equity landscape and the diligence process that drives real investment decisions.

Beyond the content itself, the workshop is also an opportunity to build relationships with the Evergreen team and fellow students. For those interested in continuing to engage with us, this program serves as a natural pathway to our 2028 Summer Investing Analyst program.

We encourage you to apply even if you feel that you do not meet all of the above qualifications. Frequently cited statistics show that women and underrepresented groups apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. Evergreen encourages you to break that statistic and to apply. No one ever meets 100% of the requirements. We look forward to your application!
