Who we are looking for The Infrastructure & Government Corporate Finance Team in Leeds provides market leading advice to clients in the infrastructure market, both in the UK and internationally. Our team works across the lifecycle of an infrastructure project, from initial business case through any procurement process to advising on transactions in the secondary
market.
Our clients are diverse. You will have the opportunity to work with a range of clients, both public and private sector, ranging from corporate entities, infrastructure funds and through to government departments. We work across the infrastructure market and you will gain exposure to a number of different sectors as well as different products including; project finance, regulated infrastructure, infrastructure; A new energy, real assets and valuations.
As a result of the teams' current activity levels and the confirmed pipeline over the next 18 months, we are now seeking to recruit a new Senior Associate to join the team.
This role is an exceptional opportunity to move into a financial and commercial advisory role and to gain immediate exposure to transactional activity with a highly regarded team.
We would expect the individual to be confident, self-motivated, personable and comfortable with numbers. The individual will bring a level of knowledge, interest in and experience of the infrastructure and government marketplace and will demonstrate an eagerness to learn more about these areas. Although based in Leeds, projects can be based across the UK and occasionally have an international focus to the work, which will require a willingness to work flexibly and independently across the UK and further afield.
About the role The role provides an exceptional opportunity to move into a successful and growing Corporate Finance business that is at the forefront of new infrastructure markets.
