About LIO DC
LIO DC is the digital infrastructure development arm of Lio Factory, a Milan-based investment holding group. We develop, own, and operate hyperscale data center campuses across Italy and emerging European markets — combining proprietary capital with institutional partnerships to move from land to energized rack faster than anyone else.
The role
You will support the origination, structuring, and execution of data center investment opportunities — from early-stage site underwriting to investor presentations and partnership negotiations. This is a generalist financial role at an asset-heavy developer, not a banking or fund-of-funds role. Expect direct exposure to ground-up development economics, grid infrastructure, and institutional capital markets.
What you will do
- Build and maintain financial models for development assets — land acquisition, capex phasing, revenue ramp, IRR/equity multiple analysis
- Prepare investment memos, teasers, and pitch materials for institutional investors and strategic partners
- Conduct market research on the European digital infrastructure landscape — supply/demand dynamics, operator activity, power availability, regulatory developments
- Support due diligence processes — coordination with legal, technical, and ESG advisors across active transactions
- Track and benchmark comparable transactions, cap rates, and power pricing across EMEA markets
- Help manage relationships with co-investors, development partners, and capital providers
What we are looking for
- 1–3 years of experience in investment banking, real estate private equity, infrastructure finance, or similar
- Strong financial modelling skills — comfortable building LBO or development models from scratch in Excel
- Degree in Finance, Economics, Engineering, or equivalent quantitative discipline
- Fluent in English and Italian
- Intellectually curious about digital infrastructure — you don't need to know the sector, but you need to want to learn it fast
- Able to write clearly and structure an argument — you will be producing content seen by institutional investors and government counterparts
What we offer
- Direct access to live deals — no siloed analyst pools, no 50-person teams between you and the transaction
- Exposure to one of the fastest-growing asset classes in European infrastructure
- Competitive compensation with strong variable component
