Role Overview

We are seeking an Energy Venture Capital Associate to join our investment team, with a focus on energy, climate tech, and sustainability. The Associate will play a key role in sourcing, evaluating, and supporting investments in early- and growth-stage companies at the forefront of energy transition—including renewable generation, storage, carbon solutions, hydrogen, and digital energy infrastructure.

This role is ideal for candidates with a blend of financial acumen, technical understanding of energy systems, and strong communication skills to support deal execution and portfolio growth.

Responsibilities

  • Build relationships with entrepreneurs, industry experts, and co-investors.

Investment Analysis & Execution

  • Conduct market and competitive analysis across energy verticals (renewables, hydrogen, storage, grid software, carbon tech).
  • 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.
  • Fast-paced, entrepreneurial culture with significant responsibility from day one.
  • Competitive compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities.
