Private Equity - Sustainability & ESG
Our client is a leading global private equity investor, investing in assets and businesses that drive measurable ESG impact - notably in the areas of climate and sustainability – alongside business performance and strong returns.
Description
The successful applicant will join a diverse and experienced team working across all aspects of the transaction cycle: origination, due diligence, execution, portfolio management, portfolio monitoring and exit. This is an exciting opportunity to join a lean deal team as part of a larger, well-established fund, where Associates are entrusted with a large amount of responsibility from day one, all while enjoying direct exposure to senior members of the investment team.
Skills
The ideal candidate will have a minimum of 18 months of experience in a leading investment bank, strategy consulting firm, or alternatively, at least 12 months of experience in a private equity or asset focussed investment role. Candidates should demonstrate extensive business appraisal and/or financial modelling expertise and a genuine interest in investing in businesses with an ESG lens. Excellent quantitative and qualitative skills are essential, alongside a solid academic background and relevant professional experience. Fluency in other European languages is advantageous, but not a requirement.
