Climate17 is partnering with an early stage infrastructure investor to appoint an Investment Director to support the continued growth of its European renewable energy and infrastructure platform.

This is a senior, high-impact opportunity reporting to the CIO and offers the chance to lead complex transactions across a broad range of energy transition and infrastructure sectors.

The successful candidate will play a key role in originating, structuring, and executing investments across renewable energy, storage, and adjacent infrastructure themes, while helping shape the platform’s long-term investment strategy across Europe. Initially this role will be focussed on originating and acquiring BESS Projects across Europe.

Key areas of focus include:

• Renewable energy and BESS origination
• Platform and single-asset acquisitions
• Complex M&A and partnership transactions
• Financial structuring and investment analysis
• Data centres and energy-adjacent infrastructure
• Pan-European market coverage and relationship management

We are keen to speak with investment professionals who bring:

• 3-15 years’ experience across infrastructure, energy, or private equity investing
• A strong track record leading complex transactions across European markets
• Deep renewable energy and energy transition expertise
• Advanced financial modelling and structuring capability
• Strong commercial instincts and an established industry network
• Experience operating in senior, externally facing investment roles

This represents an outstanding opportunity to join a highly active investor at a key stage of platform growth, with significant exposure to strategic decision-making and market-leading transactions.
