      • Senior leadership experience across early-stage infrastructure development, PPPs, sovereign or development finance environments
      • A strong track record in originating and structuring complex projects in Africa or comparable emerging markets
      • Commercial judgment, political fluency, and comfort operating in a high-autonomy, high-accountability setting
      • Demonstrable and proven experience in building out platforms from concept to implementation
      • An entrepreneurial mindset with an appetite for value creation and long-term upside
      • Experience in the sport and entertainment industry is advantageous but not essential

We offer:
