Our client already has an active pipeline of deals across solar, wind, and battery storage.

Collaborate with external stakeholders including financial institutions, developers, and strategic partners.

Work closely with internal leadership to transition deals from origination through to execution and integration. Establish internal frameworks to track and manage deals across multiple markets in Southeast Asia. What We're Looking For: 15+ years of experience in investment management, corporate finance, M&A, or strategy within the energy or infrastructure space. Strong execution experience—able to lead transactions through all stages with minimal external dependency. Deep understanding of project finance, capital structuring, and valuation. Proven ability to raise capital and maintain strong relationships with financiers and investors. Experience working across Southeast Asia with strong cross-cultural awareness....
