Searchlight Capital Partners has appointed Sebastian Inger as a partner in its London office, adding to its European team. Inger joins the global private investment firm from Investcorp, where he spent more than a decade. Most recently he was a managing director there, leading Investcorp’s Nordic investment activities and sitting on its European private equity investment committee.
He led and supported investments across a range of sectors, including technology-enabled services and business services. Inger has more than 15 years of investment experience across private equity and corporate finance. Before Investcorp, he worked in the industrial corporate finance team at Credit Suisse in London and in equity research at Swedbank in Sweden. “In the current market environment, creativity and the ability to navigate complexity are critical components of successful investing,” said Inger in a statement. “Searchlight’s emphasis on building strong relationships with founders and management teams to create enduring value aligns closely with my own philosophy.” James Redmayne, partner and head of European private equity at Searchlight, said in a statement that the firm looks forward to working with Inger “to strengthen our thematic efforts as we continue to identify compelling investment opportunities across the region.”.
