Job description

A Powerful Partnership

St1 Biokraft is a joint venture between St1, HitecVision, and Aneo, combining deep expertise and resources to drive innovation in the biogas industry. Our ambition is to become the leading integrated biogas player in the Nordics and play a pivotal role in the energy transition. We cover the entire biogas value chain – from feedstock sourcing to production, distribution, and end-user sales – and have set ambitious goals: 3 TWh of biomethane production and 6 TWh of biomethane sales by 2030.

To reach these targets, we are investing more than EUR 1 billion in production and distribution networks across the Nordics. Several major growth projects are currently underway, positioning St1 Biokraft for rapid expansion.

Strategy and M&A Analyst, St1 Biokraft AB, Helsinki

Are you driven by impactful investments and strategic work that directly shape the future of renewable energy in the Nordics? Then this could be your next career move.

The role

As a Strategy and M&A Analyst, you will be part of a small, high-performing team that advances St1 Biokraft’s strategic and investment goals. You will help develop and implement growth projects, business cases, and transactions – working closely with senior management and our owners.

You will support M&A and investment processes end-to-end and gain increasing responsibility as your expertise grows. The role offers a steep learning curve and a broad exposure to both strategy and M&A.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Build and support business and investment cases for growth projects, partnerships, and M&A opportunities—including financial modelling, scenario analysis, and valuation.
• Participate in M&A processes, including screening, due diligence support, valuation, and transaction structuring.
• Contribute to strategic projects and analyses that shape the company's direction.
• Develop and maintain high-quality financial models (DCF, project finance, M&A).
• Prepare and deliver clear, concise presentations and investment materials for management and owners.

Your Profile

• 1–3 years of relevant experience in Corporate Finance, Investment Banking, Big4 Deal Advisory / TAS, or Strategy Consulting.
• Strong analytical and quantitative skills, with extensive experience in financial modelling and valuation.
• Fundamental understanding of M&A processes
• Strong proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint.
• Strong communication skills and ability to present insights clearly in English.
• Curious, driven, and eager to learn – able to connect business logic and numbers.
• Experience from the energy or infrastructure sector is an advantage, but not a requirement.

What We Offer

You will join a fast-growing company where M&A and strategic projects are at the heart of our expansion. The work environment is dynamic and collaborative, with direct exposure to the CEO, management team, and owners.

In this role, you will:

• Work on high-impact strategy projects that shape our growth journey.
• Be involved in M&A transactions and responsible roles in deal teams.
• Build a strong foundation for a long-term career in strategy and investments.
• Learn from experienced colleagues within St1 Group and HitecVision.
