InfraRed Capital Partners - London
Opinions about InfraRed? Where do they rank among peers in Infra mid-market? What are possible exits, saw recent Analyst to Morgan Stanley Infrastructure? How is the pay for Analysts + Associates?
Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information about InfraRed Capital Partners in the provided context. However, here are some general insights about the infrastructure private equity space that might help:
Ranking Among Peers in Infra Mid-Market: Firms like GIP (Global Infrastructure Partners) are often considered top-tier in the infrastructure PE space, with others like EQT and CIP being strong European players. InfraRed's specific ranking isn't mentioned, but mid-market infra firms typically focus on stable, cash-flow-generating assets.
Exit Opportunities: Exits from infrastructure PE roles can include moving to larger infrastructure funds, transitioning to traditional PE, or joining infrastructure-focused groups at investment banks like Morgan Stanley Infrastructure. The example of an Analyst moving to Morgan Stanley Infrastructure aligns with this trend.
Compensation for Analysts and Associates: In general, infrastructure PE compensation tends to lag behind traditional PE at higher levels. At the Analyst/Associate level, the pay difference is smaller, but traditional PE firms often offer better long-term earning potential, especially when carry is considered. Specific pay figures for InfraRed are not provided in the context.

Very reputable name in the core and renewables space. Usually bucked with the likes of Amber, John Laing, Equitix, etc. Pay is slightly below market but hours are much better and culture is a huge plus for them. All in all great shop for those targeting a longer term sustainable place rather than the most aggressive comp structure.
Sorry but this comment is very inaccurate. How can you say so? Some of these are listed and have public disclosures… how can you claim that if the annual report, for Amber for instance, states a massive discount to NAV and 6% IRR since inception?
What other firms are like this?
OP here - thanks for the responses. I am more interested in value-add/PE-side of infrastructure because in the long-term I want to work in traditional PE, however if comps/exit opportunities are good I don't mind joining for 3 years.
Would joining InfraRed make sense or would you recommend to do additional off-cycle internships in IB/PE?
Bump bump. Does anyone know the base for the analyst? Heard it's c.60k? Medium-low range compared with other peers?
65k 2nd year analyst + 60%+ bonus
To OP: From what I’ve observed (peers around me), it’s generally harder to move from infra to other sectors of PE — unless you're targeting infra-adjacent teams like renewables or digital infra within traditional PE firms. On the flip side, it seems easier to break into infra from other groups like generalist IB, PUI, leveraged finance, structured/project finance, or traditional value-add/carve-out PE.
Any data point on associate comp?
Compensation is very low, culture is not the best either. Usually there is a trade off between the two but unfortunately this firm is lacking in both departments lol.
New York too?
Any updates on culture and comp for Infrarsd in their NYC office? Looking at for SA/AN1
Any new insights on comp at analyst and associate level, and culture?
