Accelerating Growth Through Active Capital

At Mint Selection, we support organisations active in private equity in renewable energy, connecting investors with high-impact professionals across investment, value creation, and portfolio management. As the global energy transition drives capital into clean infrastructure, private equity has become a key force in shaping scalable, high-growth renewable platforms.

From early-stage roll-ups to late-stage growth capital, our clients include private equity funds, portfolio companies, and infrastructure-backed platforms investing in technologies such as solar, wind, storage, and clean transport. We recruit talent that drives deal execution, operational excellence, and exit-ready performance.

Whether launching a new strategy, building a platform company, or optimising existing assets, we help private equity investors hire professionals who combine commercial insight with sector-specific execution.

Talent Across the Investment and Value Creation Lifecycle

Success in private equity in renewable energy hinges on attracting professionals who can evaluate, acquire, grow, and exit renewable energy businesses in a competitive and fast-evolving environment. These individuals combine financial rigour with strategic thinking and deep industry fluency.

We recruit for roles such as:

Investment Associate / Principal (Renewables PE) – Leading financial modelling, diligence, and transaction execution for growth and buyout investments.

Origination Lead / Deal Sourcer – Identifying platform opportunities, building relationships, and expanding deal pipelines.

Operating Partner / Value Creation Lead – Driving growth across commercial, operational, or technology verticals within portfolio companies.

CFO / Commercial Director (Portfolio Company) – Strengthening reporting, financial controls, and investor communications during hold periods.

CEO / Board Members (Renewables Platform) – Guiding strategic direction and governance from acquisition through to exit.

These roles support private equity firms in identifying promising assets, scaling them efficiently, and generating value through active ownership.

Why Private Equity in Renewable Energy Matters

The drive toward decarbonisation is creating an unprecedented opportunity for private capital to scale clean energy solutions. Private equity in renewable energy plays a pivotal role in consolidating fragmented markets, accelerating innovation, and unlocking value through hands-on leadership and capital discipline.

Private equity investors enable:

Rapid scaling of distributed and utility-scale renewable platforms

Operational improvement and professionalisation of early-stage companies

Strategic acquisitions that build market share and capability

Innovation in business models across storage, energy-as-a-service, and EV infrastructure
