Investment Director - European Infrastructure, London

A leading international infrastructure investment platform is seeking to hire an Investment Director into its European investment team, based in London.

The role offers exposure across both core-plus and value-add infrastructure strategies, with a broad mandate spanning origination, execution, asset management and portfolio growth initiatives across Europe.

The successful individual will work closely with senior leadership across a diversified infrastructure portfolio and play a key role in identifying and executing investment opportunities across sectors including energy transition, transportation, digital infrastructure, utilities and social infrastructure.

This hire may also form part of a broader geographical expansion into new regions across Europe, with a strong preference towards Southern Europe (particularly Iberia) and the Nordics, although the mandate is not limited to those markets.

• Origination and execution of infrastructure investments across Europe
• Leading transaction workstreams including structuring, diligence, financing and negotiations
• Active involvement in portfolio management and value creation initiatives post-acquisition
• Supporting development and scaling of sector and regional investment strategies
• Managing relationships with management teams, advisors, lenders and institutional counterparties
• Mentoring and overseeing junior investment professionals within the team
• Supporting fundraising, co-investment and broader strategic initiatives where relevant

• 8–12 years’ experience across infrastructure private equity, infrastructure investing or adjacent principal investing environments
• Strong origination and transaction execution experience within European infrastructure
• Experience across core-plus and/or value-add investment strategies
• Broad infrastructure sector exposure, with particular interest in energy transition and operationally complex assets
• Strong commercial judgement and ability to operate autonomously within a lean team environment
• Demonstrated portfolio and asset management exposure post-investment
• European language skills are essential, with a strong preference towards Southern European and Nordic language capabilities

The role would suit an investor looking to step into a platform with significant long-term growth ambitions across Europe and the opportunity to take on increasing leadership and regional responsibility over time.
