Senior Vice President – Investment Execution & Strategic Advisory
Location: London | Sector Exposure: Industrials, Energy Transition, Sustainable Infrastructure
The Platform
Our client is a privately held investment banking platform with a differentiated model at the intersection of strategic advisory and principal investing. With a reputation for precision execution and deep sector fluency, the firm partners with founders, corporates, and financial sponsors on complex mid-to-large cap transactions across the industrial and sustainability value chains. The business operates with institutional discipline and entrepreneurial intensity, offering bespoke solutions across M&A, structured capital, and strategic repositioning mandates.
The Mandate
We are seeking a Senior Vice President to join the firm’s execution leadership team, acting as a senior point of delivery across high-impact mandates. Reporting to the Director and Partners, the role encompasses full ownership of transaction workstreams, from origination support and structuring through to execution and closure. The position demands a rare combination of analytical sharpness, client-facing credibility, and operational excellence. The successful candidate will be a critical force in upholding execution standards, coaching junior talent, and reinforcing the firm’s positioning as a trusted advisor across evolving industrial and sustainability-linked themes.
Core Responsibilities
Transaction Leadership
* Drive the execution of live mandates across M&A, private capital raises, and strategic advisory engagements—owning all phases from kick-off to signing and post-deal positioning.
* Act as day-to-day lead on client relationships, coordinating with stakeholders to ensure pace, precision, and alignment throughout the process.
Advanced Financial Modelling & Valuation
* Build and pressure-test complex models across LBO, DCF, merger, and multi-scenario frameworks to drive investor engagement and support negotiation strategies.
* Translate analytical outputs into commercially relevant insights for senior decision-makers.
Strategic Materials & Positioning
* Develop high-impact investor materials—including confidential information memoranda, management presentations, and board-level updates—that communicate strategic intent with clarity and conviction.
* Partner with clients on narrative refinement and market positioning to maximise competitive tension.
Stakeholder Orchestration
* Navigate a complex web of counterparties—legal counsel, consultants, diligence providers, client stakeholders—to ensure delivery against timelines and transaction goals.
* Serve as the firm’s ambassador in all external interactions, ensuring consistency of tone, professionalism, and message control.
Market Mapping & Deal Structuring
* Drive sector intelligence and buyer/investor mapping efforts; bring a structured lens to market dynamics and white space analysis to enhance execution and origination quality.
* Proactively identify structuring options and tactical levers to optimise deal outcomes.
* Set the bar on work quality and professional conduct; mentor Analysts and Associates through structured coaching, rigorous feedback, and real-time problem-solving.
* Contribute to internal knowledge-sharing, process refinement, and institutional best practices.
Candidate Credentials
* Execution Depth
Demonstrable track record of managing full transaction cycles across M&A or capital raising environments, ideally within the industrials, infrastructure, or sustainability-adjacent sectors.
Exceptional technical ability across core valuation frameworks; confident handling complex, dynamic models under tight timelines.
* Client Presence
Gravitas and polish in client-facing settings; able to engage credibly with C-suite executives, investment committees, and founder-led businesses.
* Strategic Perspective
Brings structured thinking to ambiguous challenges; able to translate macro themes into micro execution tactics.
* Detail Orientation & Output Ownership
Obsessive about quality and precision—sets high standards for written and quantitative deliverables, and takes personal accountability for every output.
* Leadership Maturity
Balances high individual throughput with team stewardship; fosters cohesion and upskills junior talent without compromising on delivery pace.
* 7–10 years of relevant experience in investment banking, principal investing, or private capital advisory.
* Prior exposure to industrials, sustainability-linked sectors, or infrastructure-adjacent verticals preferred.
* Fluency in English required; additional European languages advantageous.
