Charles Lesser joins Opus (UK) as partner in the Energy & Sustainability team

We are delighted to announce that Charles Lesser has joined Opus Corporate Finance (Mergers Alliance partner in UK) as a partner in the Energy & Sustainability team that has become its primary focus.

Charles brings remarkable experience delivering institutional capital to clean energy technologies, particularly in renewables and flexibility. His clients such as SSE, Ford, Lightsource BP, BayWa Re and Antin, will benefit from Opus’ scale and European reach.

He was previously global head of transactions at Apricum Group and head of European energy IB at Macquarie. His arrival adds to Opus’ deep sector expertise and coverage across energy & sustainability infrastructure, services and technology clients.

Charles said “I’ve watched Opus quietly pioneer European LDES, BESS, renewable and smart grid transactions over the last 20 years. Their relentless execution has unlocked improbable outcomes. This is the best conceivable fit: Opus is expert, smart and connected.“

As we strengthen our coverage and focus in this crucial sector, we look forward to announcing further developments in the near future.
