Job Description Summary

GE Vernova Financial Services is recruiting two seasoned investment professionals to lead country-level origination and development investment activity across Europe. These roles will be responsible for identifying, acquiring, and advancing energy infrastructure projects with a clear mandate to position GE Vernova technologies as preferred equipment solutions.

Each role will own a defined set of European markets and be accountable for building investment pipelines, forming and managing joint ventures and development partnerships, acquiring mid to-late-stage development projects, driving commercialisation (securing offtake, structuring costs, and financing), and ultimately exiting either single assets or platform portfolios to strategic or infrastructure investors.

This is a front-line leadership role requiring market relationships, commercial creativity, regulatory fluency, structured and project finance depth, and a personal track record of having delivered and financed complex infrastructure transactions—with the conviction and discipline to apply those lessons to the current market environment. This role also requires strong capability to manage and grow high performance teams and leveraging the capabilities of the team members to maximize organizational impact.
