Investment Director

Our client is an Independent Power Producer backed by private equity, with significant capital available to accelerate growth. The business is taking a substantial pipeline of major projects through to Financial Investment Decision, and it needs an Investment Director who can lead that process while targeting international expansion and maximising risk-adjusted returns.

The Company

Our client operates a diversified flexible generation and storage portfolio, spanning battery storage and other complementary technologies across Europe. Backed by private equity, they are entering a phase of rapid, well-funded growth across the continent. This is a business where deals move fast and the pipeline is genuinely substantial, so the Investment Director will have real scope to shape outcomes rather than simply execute against a fixed plan.
