For this week's Insight, we sat down with Katherine St. James of Spring Lane to go deep on this financial asset class. Check it out!

"Climate tech's biggest obstacle isn't money" So true! This is why we have launched our DeveloperU series. And why we are committed to playing our role of helping the next wave of climate solutions "graduate" to mainstream infrastructure capital. Great article including a helpful quote by Spring Lane's Sean Sandbach...
Vice President, Boston or Montreal office Spring Lane Capital is growing! Spring Lane is a private equity firm based in Boston, Massachusetts, and Montreal, Quebec, focused on providing hybrid capital – project finance and growth capital in tandem – for companies in the sustainable energy, food, transport and waste industries. We provide capital and expertise that addresses the “missing middle” growth stages for companies that have perfected a solution and outgrown early-stage funding but still lack the scale and the balance sheet to attract cheap, infrastructure-like capital. We work intensively with these companies on both operations and capital structure to scale them to mainstream status. The Vice-president role at Spring Lane is a leadership role where candidates work closely with principals or partners to drive diligence on new deals, and support several portfolio companies on finance, operations, and strategic issues. They direct and guide the associates and analysts, and help insure quality control and mentorship. Vice-presidents also generally build expertise in a couple of different industries, and contribute to the firm’s thought leadership in those sectors. As emerging leaders, they are also consciously exposed to the back and middle office of the firm, to familiarize themselves with the working model of a private equity fund. The Vice President role is probably best suited for a candidate who is 7+ years into their project finance / investment career, likely has both a graduate degree and some background in project development or infrastructure investing, and is looking to build more of a presence in the sustainable private equity investing industry, and to grow with a strong emerging manager in the space. The position is in Boston preferred, but could also be in Montreal, Canada. For more info, see https://lnkd.in/eTxa6Fy or click the link below:

Senior Associates build and oversee financial models to guide investment decisions, work closely with the management team of portfolio companies to identify issues and opportunities at all levels of the company, and lead deal diligence efforts for new potential investments. They are also exposed to other aspects of the firm, such as fundraising, impact measurement and reporting, and other efforts such as Developer University. The role is probably best suited for a candidate who is 4-7 years into their financial or project development career, and is looking to enter or build their profile in the sustainable private equity investing industry.
