LLCP opens Dutch office, launches Euro fund
US private equity firm Levine Leichtman Capital Partners (LLCP) has opened its first continental European office in The Hague, hiring Wouter Snoeijers as managing director to oversee the new base and the firm’s new European fund.
Snoeijers joins LLCP from his position as director at Dutch pension fund PGGM, where he was involved in managing the institutional investor's €2bn-per-year private equity investment programme. He also served on PGGM's private equity investment committee.
Prior to joining PGGM, Snoeijers spent seven years at Permira, where his roles included coverage of the Netherlands and Belgium. He began his career in the Benelux M&A team at JP Morgan in London.
In his new role at LLCP, Snoeijers will head the firm's new Dutch office – its first base in continental Europe, having already opened an office in London – and will lead the GP's origination and investing activities in the Netherlands and the rest of continental Europe.
He is a member of the firm's deal origination team and will participate in seeking investments, due diligence and portfolio management, predominantly in Europe.
Snoeijers will also focus on managing LLCP's new continental Europe-focused fund, Levine Leichtman Capital Partners Europe. The Cayman Islands-domiciled vehicle launched towards the end of last year and has a target of around $118.75m (€99m), according to a filing with the US Securities & Exchange Commission.
