Infrastructure | Managing Director | Paris / London - Selby Jennings

We're partnering with a leading independent investment bank that is expanding its advisory capabilities through the launch of a dedicated digital and green infrastructure practice.

The team has already advised on a number of landmark transactions across the sector, supporting companies on M&A, capital raising and financing mandates involving many of the industry's leading infrastructure investors.

Over the past two years, the platform has successfully completed five infrastructure transactions, raising more than €900 million, highlighting both its execution capabilities and growing presence within the infrastructure market.

The team is currently advising on three active infrastructure mandates and has a strong pipeline of opportunities across multiple European markets.

As part of this growth, we are seeking to appoint a Managing Director or Director who can play a key role in building the franchise, driving origination efforts, and accelerating the expansion of this high-growth infrastructure advisory practice.
