Vice President at SCF Partners, Aberdeen.

Take a look at the role…

Welcome Note

Thank you for your interest in SCF Partners.

Like most Private Equity firms, we are in business to provide both capital and expertise to enable entrepreneurs and businesses to achieve their ambitions and potential.  Our success is founded on the deep investing and energy sector expertise that has been accumulated since inception and our collaborative approach to managing our portfolio companies. We have completed more than 300 investments and distributed in excess of $4.5 billion to our investors, and I believe, it is our genuine desire to do the right thing by our portfolio businesses which truly differentiates us and awards us with first class credentials.

Headquartered in Texas our team of 20 professionals currently manages approximately $1.5 billion of invested and uninvested capital from our offices in Houston, Aberdeen, Singapore and an outpost in Adelaide that is being established. Our strategy is to identify sectors within the energy services industry that have a positive growth outlook and work closely with entrepreneurial leaders in the field to build successful companies. Historically we focussed on companies in the oil and gas services sector but more recently our investments reflect the increasing prominence of a broader mix of energy sources including LNG, Renewables, and other technologies that contribute to the energy transition.

This role offers a unique opportunity to build a career within one of the most respected private equity firms in the world working alongside a small group of highly successful investors and entrepreneurs. We are looking forward to working with someone who fits well in our team, who is intellectually curious, self-starting, enthusiastic and diligent, but who likes to have fun and has a good sense of humour.

We look forward to your application.

Colin Welsh, International Partner

Since 1989, SCF Partners has supported entrepreneurs and provided equity capital and strategic growth assistance to build leaders in the energy services and equipment industries. We operate throughout the world with offices in Houston, Calgary, Aberdeen and Singapore.

At SCF we strive to be true partners. Our desire is to work with great entrepreneurs and management teams and, together, build companies that are going to last and become leaders in their industry. We currently oversee approximately $2 billion under management and have built more than 70 platform services companies, completing over 300 growth acquisitions through partnerships with energy services and equipment entrepreneurs.

SCF’s investor base is comprised mostly of non-profit organisations, universities, and charitable endowments. We are deeply committed to helping non-profit organisations invest their resources successfully. The firm has investing relationships with non-profit organisations such as Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Carnegie Corporation of New York, and TIFF (The Investment Fund for Foundations).

At SCF we are in it for the long haul. Our financial partners share our belief that the soundest investments are those which grow steadily over time. We identify sectors that demonstrate solid, long-term growth outlooks, then partner with the best and brightest entrepreneurs and business leaders in those fields.

Currently on our 9th Fund, with short term plans to raise our 10th, we continue our journey of transformation as we positively disrupt and regenerate the industries in which we operate. SCF has a strong desire to continue to diversify our portfolio capability and coverage and are committed to making our portfolio businesses more viable by embracing new ways of thinking, being more collaborative with adjacent industries, remaining progressive in investment decisions and by placing more emphasis on the journey of energy transition.

Additionally, by pulling from our long reaching network of sector experts we have also created a venture portfolio which focuses on ESG and disruptive technologies to further position our commitment to supporting founders in the growth of their businesses.

At SCF Partners, the secret to our success isn’t a secret at all. It’s people.

The strength of our relationships stems from a shared commitment to a core set of values – integrity, work, tenacity, and discipline. Guided by these principles, we’ve been providing capital and strategic growth assistance to visionary energy entrepreneurs for nearly 30 years.

Due to growth, SCF now looks to recruit a Vice President (VP) to directly support Colin Welsh, International Partner of our Aberdeen office. An exceptional opportunity which affords the successful candidate with great autonomy, full exposure to investment committees and senior management teams, access to exceptional talent across a highly accredited international team and the opportunity to make a difference with prospect and existing entrepreneurs/founders.

Our international portfolio includes high quality companies such as Centurion Group, MPCK, NESR, Contract Resources, Shelf Offshore and Score Group. They are headquartered in a variety of locations across the UK, Australia and the Middle East with NESR being the largest with $875 million in revenues and listed on Nasdaq.
