As part of strengthening our team in the Milan office, we are looking for a:
Associate/Consultant – Energy & Infrastructure Advisory



The Consultant/Analyst will play a core execution and analytical role across live mandates, with direct exposure to senior advisors, clients, and investors. This is not a “support” role: the position requires autonomy, critical thinking, and ownership of complex workstreams, while maintaining the analytical rigor expected in high-stakes financial advisory.

The role sits at the intersection of financial modeling, transaction execution, and strategic problem-solving, with a strong sectoral focus on energy and infrastructure assets.

Key Responsibilities

Transaction Execution & Financial Analysis

• Build and review advanced financial models (DCF, project finance models, LBO-style acquisition models, capital structure and refinancing models) for renewable energy and infrastructure assets

• Perform valuation analyses for single assets and platforms, including sensitivity and scenario analyses tailored to market and regulatory risks

• Support execution of M&A mandates (buy-side and sell-side), including preparation of teasers, information memoranda, data rooms, and management presentations

• Contribute to capital raising processes, coordinating financial analysis, investor materials, and due diligence inputs

Strategic & Sector Analysis

• Analyze regulatory frameworks, market dynamics, and revenue mechanisms relevant to energy and infrastructure assets (e.g. merchant risk, long-term contracts, incentives, grid constraints)

• Support strategic advisory mandates for developers and IPPs, including bankability assessments, funding strategies, and portfolio optimization

• Produce concise, decision-oriented analyses rather than generic market reports

Client & Deal Team Interaction

• Act as a key point of reference within deal teams, managing analytical workstreams with limited supervision

• Interact with clients, investors, lenders, and technical advisors in a professional and commercially aware manner

• Review and challenge assumptions, identifying risks and inconsistencies rather than passively executing instructions

Candidate Profile

Experience

• 1–4 years of experience in investment banking, financial advisory, infrastructure/energy advisory, project finance, or infrastructure investing

• Demonstrated exposure to energy and/or infrastructure transactions; renewables experience is a strong advantage

Technical Skills

• Excellent financial modeling skills in Excel; ability to build and audit complex models independently

• Strong understanding of capital structures, debt instruments, and project finance mechanics

• Ability to synthesize complex quantitative and qualitative information into clear insights

Mindset & Soft Skills

• High level of intellectual curiosity and independent judgment; comfortable challenging assumptions, including those of senior stakeholders

• Strong sense of ownership and accountability for deliverables and outcomes

• Ability to operate effectively in a lean, high-responsibility environment with limited hierarchy

• Clear, structured communication skills in English (written and verbal); additional languages are a plus

Why This Role

• Direct exposure to live transactions across M&A, capital raising, and strategic advisory

• Steep learning curve driven by real responsibility, not process bureaucracy

• Opportunity to work closely with senior professionals who combine advisory, entrepreneurial, and operational experience

• A platform designed for professionals who prefer depth, rigor, and impact over scale and brand signaling

A network of thinkers, creatives and creators. An ecosystem made of insights, skills and research. Skeptical by nature and optimistic by education - we do not believe in pre-packaged solutions and we conceive of consultancy as a tailored product, which enhances the strength of our customers, opening up new opportunities.

We are men and women of thought, who build, plan, actualize. Probably one of the most curious minds you will ever work with.

We are in the business of ideas but we know that ideas alone are not enough to change a market - you have to turn them into projects, putting your hands and heart into it.

The status quo is meant to be turned upside down for the benefit of our customers. There is no choice that is not crucial. It will seem extreme, perhaps, but if we had not been radical in our choices, we would not be here. To exist is to dare and we dare, together with our customers, from day one.
