• Utilities: Engaging with integrated and regulated utilities covering transmission and distribution (molecules and electrons) but also supply-focused customer businesses and water utilities
• Infrastructure: Focused on both “core” sectors involving port, toll-road, leasing, and rail assets as well as “core +” mandates across value-add infrastructure, with opportunities for cross staffing across related sector teams including digital, and business services
