Vice President – Infrastructure & Energy

Role overview

This is an opportunity to join a high-performing Energy team that works on advisory, structured finance, and project finance transactions across Australia and New Zealand. The position sits within a wider Energy, Mining & Industries platform at a major global investment bank and is aligned to continued expansion in the Australian and New Zealand markets.

The role offers exposure to sophisticated financing mandates, client-facing work, and transaction execution across the energy transition space. It is a senior position with ownership of deal delivery, stakeholder coordination, and support for the development of junior colleagues.

Strong capability in financial modelling, valuation, and credit analysis is important, along with proven experience handling transaction structuring, due diligence, and full deal execution. Candidates should also be comfortable managing several workstreams at once and mentoring junior team members.
