VP/SVP Infrastructure (New York City Metropolitan Area)

Infrastructure & Private Equity Investments

A growing, highly regarded investment firm is seeking a VP or SVP to join its investment team. The firm invests at the intersection of infrastructure and private equity, partnering with businesses in essential-services and resilience-driven sectors.

This is a high-responsibility opportunity for an investor who wants to work closely with senior leadership on live transactions from day one, while building toward sector ownership, origination responsibility, and a long-term path to partnership.

Its investment focus includes:

• Energy transition
• Water, wastewater, and environmental services
• Utility and industrial services
• Marine infrastructure
• Infrastructure resilience and climate adaptation
• Other essential-services and infrastructure-adjacent businesses

The platform combines infrastructure expertise with an active private-equity approach, including M&A, capital-structure optimization, operational value creation, and strategic growth initiatives.

Responsibilities

• Lead and support the execution of new investments, add-on acquisitions, financings, and exits.
• Build and review financial models, valuation analyses, returns cases, and downside scenarios.
• Evaluate investment opportunities through commercial, financial, operational, and strategic diligence.
• Prepare investment-committee materials and present clear, well-supported recommendations.
• Work directly with senior Partners, management teams, advisers, lenders, and transaction counterparties.
• Support portfolio-company value creation, including M&A strategy, capital-structure initiatives, and operational improvement plans.
• Develop deep expertise in one or more core investment sectors over time.
• Build relationships with intermediaries, management teams, investors, and industry participants.
• Contribute to the continued development of the investment platform, investment processes, and market intelligence.

Candidates should bring:

• Strong investing and transaction-execution experience from private equity, infrastructure, energy, industrials, utility services, or related sectors.
• Excellent financial modelling, valuation, and underwriting capability.
• A track record of managing complex transactions from initial evaluation through signing and closing.
• Strong commercial judgment and the ability to operate independently in a lean, high-performing team.
• Credibility with senior stakeholders, including management teams, advisers, lenders, and co-investors.
• Interest in active ownership and company building, not solely transaction execution.
• A collaborative, low-ego style and comfort in an entrepreneurial environment.
• Clear ambition to develop into a senior investment leader and, ultimately, a partner.
