​The client is a global advisory firm specializing in strategy and transactions within the renewable energy and cleantech sectors. Established in 2008 and headquartered in Berlin, the company supports businesses and investors in driving the energy transition. The client stands out through its high standards, distinctive culture, and deep technical expertise.

The Position

• The client’s transaction advisory division is experiencing exceptional growth, necessitating increased capacity to support its global clients in achieving the energy transition.

• They are seeking a Corporate Finance Associate with the ambition and capability to grow alongside the organization. The client values diversity and recruits predominantly from top-tier academic and professional backgrounds.

• Bringing expertise in cleantech, the client requires your experience in transaction execution.

• Based in their London office, you will work with leading global corporations, investment funds, and growth-stage companies on M&A and private capital market transactions.

• This role involves close collaboration with the heads of M&A and Capital Advisory.

• Most importantly, the client fosters a collaborative environment. London serves as the global hub for the firm’s transaction advisory and investment banking services.
