Job Description

A newly established renewable energy fund is looking to appoint a lawyer to join its expanding in-house legal team. With significant capital committed across infrastructure, renewables and real assets, this is a rare opportunity to work at the heart of a direct investment platform from an early stage.

The Role

You will play a key role in supporting complex infrastructure and energy projects across a diverse portfolio that includes solar, wind, battery storage and other innovative asset classes. The remit covers the full lifecycle of investments, from development through to operation, and will include:

Drafting and negotiating development and construction agreements (including EPC, O&M and related contracts). Structuring and executing acquisitions, disposals and joint ventures for new projects. Corporate structuring and governance of project companies and investment vehicles. Advising on PPAs, capacity arrangements and other key project contracts. Ongoing portfolio management, including subsidiary oversight and operational risk mitigation.

The Candidate

You will be a delivery-focused lawyer with:

5-8 years’ PQE with experience in projects, infrastructure or energy transactions. Strong contract drafting and deal execution skills gained either in-house or at a leading law firm. For those moving directly from private practice, prior secondment experience would be a distinct advantage. Exposure to project documents (e.g. EPC, O&M, PPA, grid connection, supply agreements) and the ability to work across varied asset classes. A commercial mindset and the confidence to take ownership of matters throughout the project lifecycle.

Based in central London with hybrid working practices, this role offers exposure to high-value renewable energy projects from development through to operation. It is an opportunity to shape a growing investment platform, combine transactional and project delivery experience, and play a meaningful role in driving the energy transition.
