The Role

You will play a key role in supporting and executing M&A and strategic advisory mandates across traditional energy, renewables, power & utilities, and broader energy‑transition verticals. Working closely with senior bankers, you will contribute to all aspects of live transactions and business development.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support full‑cycle M&A execution, from financial analysis to due diligence, valuation, presentations, documentation, and client engagement.

  • Prepare high‑quality marketing materials, pitchbooks, investment memoranda and board‑level analyses.
  • Collaborate with product and sector teams globally to support cross‑border transactions.
  • Assist in the development of new client relationships through sector insights, market updates and tailored strategic ideas.

  • Direct experience in Energy, Power & Utilities, Natural Resources, Renewables, or Energy Transition is essential.
  • Strong transaction exposure (M&A execution required; capital markets experience beneficial).
  • Excellent financial modelling, valuation and analytical skills.
  • Ability to work under pressure, manage multiple workstreams and deliver flawlessly.
  • Outstanding communication skills and professionalism when working with external stakeholders.
  • A proactive, detail‑driven and team‑oriented approach.
