Job Description:

Our Strategy & Transactions practice are looking for an experienced Director to join the team.

We are a rapidly growing global team of transactions and strategy experts, who are striving to be the global go-to provider for deal advisory work in Energy, Utilities, and Renewable Infrastructure. Our work spans the value chain of these sectors, including technology, services, manufacturing and supply chain.

We mostly work with Private Equity, Infrastructure and Corporate clients - they tell us they love our 'speed to insight'. This is because we staff teams not just with CDD experts but also with sector specialists; this approach places a much lower emphasis on external experts and allows us to leverage Baringa's unique IP and bankable models that have been built up through years of Energy/Utilities/Infrastructure sector leadership.

Despite our rapid growth, we pride ourselves on our collaborative and open culture, and the entrepreneurial spirit of the team. We are now an established team of over 50 in the UK and are also looking to rapidly scale our US, APAC and Australia teams. This makes it a very exciting time to join and help shape the future direction of Baringa's Strategy & Transactions practice.

We are committed to creating the 'best place to work in transactions and strategy'; come and play a role in this exciting journey.

What you will be doing

We are looking for an exceptional individual to join our Strategy & Transactions practice at Senior Manager/Director level. This is an opportunity to lead a dynamic and growing team focused on deal advisory and growth strategy in the Energy, Utilities, and Renewable Infrastructure sectors.

Day-to-day the role will involve:

Leading the development of client relationships and business engagement opportunities.

Supporting corporate and private equity clients with market entry strategy/analysis, identifying investment themes and potential targets.

Leading buy and sell-side commercial due diligence, and growth strategy projects.

Contributing to the ongoing evolution of Baringa’s global and local growth strategy.

Coaching, mentoring, and advising junior colleagues on strategy and transactions best-practice.

Actively engaging in acquisition of new team members and talent.

We differentiate by running blended teams of strategy/transaction experts with sector specialists, bringing hands-on expertise from across Baringa to our clients.

Your skills and experience

Extensive strategy/transaction experience – CDD, VCDD, Growth, Market Entry – with 10+ years spent within consulting.

Significant experience working on energy focused projects, and deep understanding of the energy value chain.

Previous track record of participating in building client relationships, identifying and shaping opportunities, and converting opportunities into sold engagements.

Desire to be involved in a fast-growing team, with opportunity to shape the future development of the team’s focus.

Most of all, we value individuals that are not only hardworking and intelligent, but who also make the workplace an enjoyable place to be.

What a career at Baringa will give you

Putting People First.
Baringa is a People First company and wellbeing is at the forefront of our culture. We recognise the importance of work-life balance and flexible working and provide our staff amazing benefits. Some of these benefits include:

Generous Annual Leave Policy: We recognise everyone needs a well-deserved break. We provide our employees with 5 weeks of annual leave, fully available at the start of each year. In addition to this, we have introduced our 5-Year Recharge benefit which allows all employees an additional 2 weeks of paid leave after 5 years continuous service.

Flexible Working: We know that the ‘ideal’ work-life balance will vary from person to person and change at different stages of our working lives. To accommodate this, we have implemented a hybrid working policy and introduced more flexibility around taking unpaid leave.

Corporate Responsibility Days: Our world is important to us, so all our employees get 3 every year to help social and environmental causes and increase our impact on the communities that mean the most to us.

Wellbeing Fund: We want to encourage all employees to take charge and prioritise their own wellbeing. We’ve introduced our annual People Fund to support this by offering every individual a fund to support and manage their wellbeing through an activity of their choice.

Career Progression: No one develops at the same pace. That’s why we have quarterly rather than annual promotion reviews. We don’t have any quotas: if you’re ready and delivering at the right level, you’ll get that promotion.

Profit Share Scheme: All employees participate in the Baringa Group Profit Share Scheme so everyone has a stake in the company’s success.
