Hamilton Lane Adds Three Senior Infrastructure Hires

Tara Speers joins as a managing director on the product team in Toronto, responsible for capital formation, client and product management, investor relations, fundraising and portfolio construction. She has more than two decades of infrastructure experience and was previously a managing director at Fengate, where she worked on capital formation and investor relations, the firm said.

Lucas May is a principal on the investment team at Hamilton Lane’s headquarters in Conshohocken. He will originate, evaluate and execute direct, secondary and primary fund investment opportunities. Before joining, he was a vice president at Vauban Infrastructure Partners, executing and managing investments in middle-market infrastructure businesses.

In London, Colin Mooney joins as a vice president on the investment team. His responsibilities include sourcing, underwriting and monitoring primary, co-investment and secondary transactions across the firm’s commingled funds and managed accounts. He previously held a vice president role at Jefferies Private Capital Advisory.

The appointments follow the recent hiring of two senior associates in Toronto and Oregon, bringing the product and investment team to 27. Brent Burnett, Hamilton Lane’s global head of Infrastructure and Real Assets, said the new hires bring complementary expertise to support the platform’s growth and client service. He added that individual and institutional investors see infrastructure as an important and expanding part of their portfolios and seek experienced partners.

Hamilton Lane has invested in infrastructure and real assets for more than 26 years. In the first half of 2026, it realized $49.4 billion in deal flow and deployed more than $1.2 billion across discretionary transactions. The firm employs about 820 people and reports about $1.1 trillion in assets under management and supervision, serving institutional and private wealth clients worldwide.
