3i works actively with exceptional business leaders and entrepreneurs globally to ensure the businesses we invest in fulfill their potential and achieve market leadership.
Experienced in leading substantial companies, you have the insight and energy to drive value creation in high potential businesses. You may be seeking new challenges to capitalise on your exceptional track record, having achieved enviable success at the top. Certainly you are attracted to the pace and high expectations associated with private equity-backed businesses.
As a world leader in private equity, 3i has access to an unrivalled flow of investment opportunities globally. Our unique network spans Europe, Asia and North America, allowing us to identify and select exciting growth companies in which to invest on a majority or minority basis.
Working with us
3i’s approach is founded on partnership: working with outstanding leaders, leveraging our global connections and building on deep sector and geographic insight. These partnerships are flexible, dynamic and take many forms – from working together to assess investment opportunities and create winning strategies to taking non-executive, executive and advisory roles within a portfolio company. Each relationship is unique, evolving to create the right fit between your personal aspirations and skills and the needs of our businesses.
A small number of individuals who are highly proactive and entrepreneurial in approach may also join the 3i investment teams as a Senior Adviser. This role brings together 3i’s complementary capabilities to seek new investment opportunities where personal networks, market knowledge, and your leadership experience could create significant advantage.
The qualities we seek are those underpinning your success: your ability to set strategies, lead change, inspire people, apply insight, drive growth and create value.
Our aim is simple: to help build great companies that deliver world-class results. In achieving these goals, we deliver meaningful financial rewards that reflect your contribution: consultancy fees for project-based roles; success fees for deal origination and co-investment opportunities for active board roles. The case studies and selected individual profiles demonstrate some of the ways business leaders and 3i have joined together to make great things happen.
Connecting
3i’s Business Leaders Network is all about connecting you with the right opportunities and teams within our business globally. For each sector and geography, there is a dedicated Director focused on getting to know you and identifying ways we might work together. We would be delighted to hear from you for an exploratory discussion.
