Investment Associate

The Team

A leading Swiss-based energy infrastructure fund seeks to appoint an Investment Associate to expand its capabilities across Europe. The firm has established itself as a premier investor in energy transition, renewable energy, and critical infrastructure assets.

The fund manages €7bn+ in AUM across two vintages, with a proven track record of identifying and executing value-add opportunities in sustainable energy, digital infrastructure, and environmental assets. The investment team combines deep sector expertise with operational excellence, demonstrating consistent value creation across a diversified portfolio.

The firm is on the cusp of significant growth. The inaugural fund has delivered strong returns, and a second fund is expected to launch imminently, creating immediate demand for deal execution and asset management resources. The successful candidate will work directly with the three co-founders, benefit from meaningful equity ownership early, and drive investment strategy across the firm's core sectors.

This represents a rare opportunity to join a respected, growth-stage infrastructure platform at a pivotal moment.

We are seeking an experienced Investment Associate to join our investment team. You will play a key role in identifying, evaluating, and executing infrastructure and energy transition investments across Europe. Working alongside senior investment professionals, you will be responsible for deal origination, financial analysis, due diligence, and asset management.

• Conduct comprehensive due diligence on potential acquisitions, including operational, financial, and market analysis
• Prepare investment memos, investment committee papers, and investor reporting materials
• Support deal origination and pipeline development through market research and stakeholder engagement
