Mr. Shockley is a senior investment professional who brings to Antin more than 20 years of high-level experience in private equity and the energy and power infrastructure space. His appointment is a major addition to Antin’s growing North American team. Spearheaded by Kevin Genieser, Managing Partner and a member of Antin’s five-person Executive Committee, the New York-based team comprises 52 people, of which 34 are investment professionals focused on the US and Canada. Since opening its US office in 2019, Antin has carried out a number of significant investments in the region in energy, digital and transport across its three strategies, Flagship, MidCap and NextGen.
Mr. Shockley’s hiring further strengthens the ranks of Antin’s Senior Partners, which were recently reinforced with the internal promotions of Guillaume Friedel in New York and Ashkan Karimi, who runs Antin’s legal team and is based in London.
Mr. Shockley will be joining Antin from BlackRock, which he joined in 2017 and where he was a Partner at BlackRock Global Infrastructure Funds (“BGIF”). At BlackRock, Mr. Shockley originated, executed and managed infrastructure investments and also headed BGIF’s London office in 2023. Mr. Shockley previously worked from 2004 to 2017 at First Reserve Corporation, first in its private equity strategy and subsequently as one of the original investors in its infrastructure strategy. He began his professional career at JPMorgan Securities.
Mr. Shockley holds a BA in Economics from Kalamazoo College and an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management Northwestern University.
