  • Perform due diligence, financial modeling, and valuation analysis for prospective investments.
  • Draft investment memos and present recommendations to the Investment Committee.
  • Portfolio Management

  • Support existing portfolio companies with fundraising, strategy, and corporate development opportunities.
  • Collaborate with Pegasus’s global corporate partners to drive strategic partnerships and pilots.
  • Thought Leadership

  • Track emerging trends, policy developments, and innovations shaping the energy and climate landscape.
  • Represent Pegasus at industry events and contribute to firm-wide thought leadership in energy and sustainability.
  • Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree required; advanced degree (MBA, MS, or PhD in energy, engineering, finance, or economics) preferred.
  • 2–5 years of experience in venture capital, private equity, investment banking, management consulting, or energy industry roles.
  • Strong understanding of energy markets, decarbonization technologies, and investment principles.
  • Excellent analytical, financial modeling, and presentation skills.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, with ability to work independently and collaboratively across global teams.
  • Strong network in the energy / climate tech ecosystem is a plus.
  • What We Offer

  • Exposure to global deal flow across energy and adjacent tech sectors.
  • Opportunity to work alongside experienced investors and corporate partners.
