Partner – Executive Advisory — Renewables Construction Book

Planned Replacement

Confidential Partner – Executive Advisory seat addressing a portfolio monetisation for a infrastructure developer and asset operator in India.

The mandate

The enterprise is entering a phase in which leadership must resolve a new advisory proposition linking leadership choices to enterprise outcomes within a multinational-owned infrastructure developer and asset operator. The immediate arena is the renewables construction book during a portfolio monetisation. For mandate 316, the successful executive inherits decisions that have been deferred, competing stakeholder expectations and a need to establish facts before committing further capital.

The Partner – Executive Advisory operating perimeter covers approximately ₹23,750 crore in project and operating-asset portfolio, with activity spanning several renewables construction book customer, product and delivery clusters rather than a single asset. The Partner – Executive Advisory Infrastructure remit carries direct influence over roughly 1,450 colleagues and third-party capacity.

The board and its investment committee want a Partner – Executive Advisory who can convert ambiguity into a short list of explicit choices for the renewables construction book. The Partner – Executive Advisory Infrastructure seat must resolve a portfolio monetisation, while preserving the underlying strengths of the renewables construction book. For mandate 316, value will come through sharper allocation, stronger leaders and an operating cadence that exposes variance early.

The Partner – Executive Advisory’s first year on the renewables construction book is expected to end with origination, counsel quality and measurable client outcomes. In mandate 316, authority covers resources and leadership appointments; material trade-offs go directly to the board sponsor.

Why this seat is open

This is a planned replacement for the Partner – Executive Advisory — Renewables Construction Book seat. The incumbent continues to lead the renewables construction book through an agreed succession period and will support a structured handover. The board has allowed 4–6 months to assess candidates, complete diligence and protect continuity while a portfolio monetisation is addressed. The search is confidential so the transition can be communicated to employees, customers and partners in a controlled sequence.

What you will own

  • Set the Partner – Executive Advisory value-creation thesis for the renewables construction book, translate it into no more than five enterprise priorities and stop work that does not support them.
  • Carry stewardship of approximately ₹23,750 crore in project and operating-asset portfolio, including allocation, risk acceptance and board forecasts.
  • Lead the Partner – Executive Advisory Infrastructure organisation of about 1,450 employees and partners, appointing a team with clear decision rights and credible succession for every critical seat.
  • Resolve the renewables construction book economics and execution constraints created by a portfolio monetisation, with Partner – Executive Advisory-approved owners, dated milestones and transparent escalation thresholds.
  • Establish one Partner – Executive Advisory operating review across commercial, customer, financial, people, technology and risk outcomes for the renewables construction book; remove reconciliations that obscure accountability.
  • Show repeated senior-client origination plus responsibility for developing principals and future partners in mandate 316.
  • Build the Partner – Executive Advisory’s three-year succession and capability plan for the renewables construction book, reducing dependence on individual executives and improving mobility across the wider Infrastructure organisation.

The first 12 months

  • Days 1–90: Validate the renewables construction book baseline, meet the 30 stakeholders most consequential to a new advisory proposition linking leadership choices to enterprise outcomes, assess the leadership team, stabilise immediate delivery risks and agree a board-owned scorecard with explicit decision gates.
  • Months 4–9: Make the principal Partner – Executive Advisory portfolio and organisation choices for the renewables construction book, install the new operating cadence, fill critical leadership gaps and deliver the first measurable release of cash, capacity or customer value.
  • Months 10–12: Demonstrate a repeatable renewables construction book trend against origination, counsel quality and measurable client outcomes, lock the following year’s capital and talent plan, evidence control sustainability and present a credible three-year value case with downside actions.

What the board will measure

  • Delivery of the Partner – Executive Advisory’s agreed first-year renewables construction book value case within a 10% tolerance, with variance explained before rather than after the relevant quarter closes.
  • A Partner – Executive Advisory forecast that remains decision-useful across three consecutive quarters and reconciles the renewables construction book’s operating, cash, customer and people assumptions.
  • Closure of the Partner – Executive Advisory mandate’s highest-priority renewables construction book risk and execution issues by their board-approved dates, with independent evidence that fixes are sustained.
  • Retention of at least 90% of critical renewables construction book talent and ready-now successors for at least 70% of the Partner – Executive Advisory’s direct reports.
  • A quantified Partner – Executive Advisory-owned improvement in the renewables construction book operating constraint behind a portfolio monetisation, supported by a clean baseline and named data owner.
  • Clear stakeholder confidence in mandate 316: no unresolved high-severity escalation older than 30 days and no material surprise withheld from its agreed governance forum.

The person

You are currently a Partner, Principal or senior executive adviser in a multinational-owned Infrastructure or adjacent enterprise. In relation to the renewables construction book, your Partner – Executive Advisory track record includes a transition where the original plan was no longer sufficient; you can explain your choices, evidence and numerical impact. Candidates from infrastructure, construction, utilities, transport assets or project finance will be considered where the operating model, customer stakes and governance intensity match this Partner – Executive Advisory brief.

As a Partner – Executive Advisory candidate, you bring 22–28 years of progressive Infrastructure or adjacent-sector experience, consistent with the 22-28 experience band. At minimum, you have carried a P&L, book, budget or accountable portfolio of ₹13,750 crore and led an organisation of at least 1,025 people. Advisory seats require equivalent renewables construction book client-value ownership and multi-disciplinary leadership.

For mandate 316, the board wants two transitions: a difficult renewables construction book portfolio choice and a leadership-system change during a portfolio monetisation. As the prospective Partner – Executive Advisory for this renewables construction book, you must challenge optimistic cases and still create followership. References for mandate 316 must distinguish your contribution from the institution around you.

The Partner – Executive Advisory role in Infrastructure is based in Mumbai; relocation is expected, although a structured weekly commute may be considered during the first quarter.

Non-negotiables

  • Current or recent accountability at the level of Partner, Principal or senior executive adviser, with direct exposure to a board, investment committee or equivalent Infrastructure governance forum.
  • Proven Partner – Executive Advisory ownership of at least ₹13,750 crore and leadership of no fewer than 1,025 employees in a comparable renewables construction book context.
  • One completed Infrastructure or adjacent-sector example of a new advisory proposition linking leadership choices to enterprise outcomes with outcomes sustained for at least two reporting periods after the initial intervention.
  • Sector credibility from infrastructure, construction, utilities, transport assets or project finance; experience that is purely functional and lacks Partner – Executive Advisory-level renewables construction book consequences will not meet the bar.
  • Willingness to meet the Mumbai location expectation, complete conflicts and background diligence, and protect the confidentiality of mandate 316.

Compensation and terms

The anticipated Partner – Executive Advisory package is ₹2.2–3.0 crore fixed + performance variable, calibrated to the final renewables construction book scope and the candidate’s current mix. Any long-term participation for mandate 316 follows standard vesting and performance conditions. The Partner – Executive Advisory appointment in Mumbai, centred on the renewables construction book, offers regular exposure to the board and its investment committee. A structured client and conflict transition of up to 6 months can be accommodated for mandate 316.
