Integrity & partnership: our team
Teamwork and a collegial environment are central to our culture. We value honesty and humility. We respect the views of others and we encourage debate and intellectual curiosity.
We recruit outstanding people who are able to work across diverse cultures and regions as one team. We align our interests within our team and with our investors and management partners. We believe in supporting the local communities where we live and work.

We are committed to our strategy. This requires patience and discipline in identifying and developing investment opportunities. We seek to partner closely with exceptional managers to drive value creation in all our investments.
We encourage creative thinking: it fosters flexibility, resourcefulness and the entrepreneurial spirit.
TowerBrook Capital Partners is a purpose-driven, transatlantic investment management firm that has raised in excess of $22.8 billion to date.
We are disciplined investors with a commitment to fundamental value. We seek to deliver superior, risk-adjusted returns to investors on a consistent basis, guided by TowerBrook Responsible OwnershipTM principles which are central to our firm’s value creation strategy.
We partner with a large and growing network of highly talented, experienced managers and senior advisors who share our values and support our investment objectives, providing capital and resources to transform the capabilities and prospects of the businesses in which we invest, driving better outcomes for all stakeholders. Our entrepreneurial, multinational, single-team approach allows us to act with speed and certainty in multiple jurisdictions.
We invest through different Funds that allow us to access a range of opportunities through the cycle and across the capital structure.
TowerBrook’s Private Equity strategy is based on the focused, proprietary sourcing of selected, control-oriented investment opportunities and on a proactive, value-added approach to improving businesses and positioning them for sustainable growth.
TowerBrook’s Private Equity Funds invest in large and midsize companies in a range of sectors on both sides of the Atlantic. We focus on companies where we have identified scope for significant further improvement and value creation. We partner with management teams to implement an effective governance framework and support key initiatives, including strategic investments, business optimisation projects and add-on or transformative acquisitions.
TowerBrook’s Structured Opportunities strategy leverages our experience and expertise to complement and enhance our private equity investing activity. It allows us to identify and develop a broad array of opportunities, principally via structured asset and structured equity investments.
TowerBrook’s Structured Opportunities Funds typically make minority investments in businesses where founders or shareholders are seeking not only capital but a partner who can add value to their business. As with our private equity investing, we seek to source proprietary opportunities where we can build the relationships that are integral to successful investment outcomes.
Established in 2021, TowerBrook’s Impact strategy is a natural evolution of the firm’s differentiated and disciplined investment approach, in line with our longstanding TowerBrook Responsible OwnershipTM principles. TowerBrook Delta seeks to partner with exceptional entrepreneurs and management teams focused on growing purpose-driven businesses that generate specific, measurable social or environmental impact, and with business models that directly contribute to addressing at least one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The industry areas where TowerBrook Delta is particularly active include Healthcare, Financial Services and Education/Human Capital, where our impact primarily has a social dimension; and Food & Agriculture, Environmental Technologies, Green Industry and Clean Energy, where our impact emphasis is on environmental sustainability.
TowerBrook Delta makes control and non-control investments in North American and European businesses where our value-added approach can contribute to continued and sustainable growth, whilst delivering positive and sustainable social or environmental impact. Building on our experience in delivering improved ESG performance across our PE and TSO portfolio, we have developed a rigorous impact measurement and management system to ensure the impact of our investments can be quantified.
As with our private equity and structured opportunities investing, we seek to source proprietary opportunities where we can build a partnership with founders and managers who themselves are seeking more than capital. Our resources include a network of advisors with whom we have built decades of experience in responsible investing, including a dedicated Impact Advisory Board comprised of seasoned executives who embrace TowerBrook’s purpose and bring relevant industry experience in key sectors aligned with our Impact strategy.
We promote responsible policies and practices within TowerBrook and in our portfolio companies.
We seek to create a dynamic professional environment that attracts exceptional talent to our firm. We are proud of the culture we have nurtured at TowerBrook, and we work hard to ensure it continues to flourish.
We expect each member of our team to show leadership by exemplifying and promoting TowerBrook’s values, internally and externally. We invest in leadership and professional development for senior and junior members of the TowerBrook team to maximise the potential and performance of individuals and of our firm.
Our aim is to continue building a diverse, inclusive team that will thrive on generating ideas, solving problems and stimulating value creation.
