Its focus spans a broad range of energy transition verticals including renewable generation (wind, solar, storage), sustainable infrastructure, and energy services.

With capital already deployed across multiple markets and a strong pipeline of opportunities, the team is looking to appoint a Vice President to play a key role in the execution of new investments, portfolio value creation, and ongoing strategy development. This hire will be integral to supporting the firm’s continued growth across both Europe and North America.

The ideal candidate will:

1. Currently hold a Senior Associate or Vice President position within an infrastructure and/or renewable energy private equity fund.
2. Have an in-depth understanding of the infrastructure and/or renewable energy market in Europe, with a proven deal track record.
3. Possess excellent deal execution skills, including strong modelling abilities.
4. Hold a degree in business, finance, mathematics, or a related field from a highly regarded university.
5. Demonstrate excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to interact effectively with all levels of management.
6. Be motivated by the opportunity to join a newly established and growing investment fund.
