VP Debt Advisory

Green Recruitment Company; London; On-site; GBP 60,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job description

The Green Recruitment Company is working with an investment bank experiencing an increased deal flow across the business with a focus on energy transition. Our client operates within M&A, debt solutions, intermediate capital, and power markets across the UK | Europe.

The Role:

An exciting opportunity has become available for a VP Debt Advisory to focus on the Debt Advisory part of the business for energy transition, supporting the existing deal flow and a promising pipeline in debt advisory.

Responsibilities:

• The role would require the VP Debt Advisory to work independently, with a team of passionate professionals highly experienced in extensive deal records in debt and equity advisory, structured finance, and private equity investments.

• The VP will utilize excellent structuring and credit skills, financial modeling skills, and capability to manage the full cycle of a debt advisory process, interacting with several potential lenders.

• As VP financing energy transitions, you will use relevant knowledge of financial advisory processes, work in small teams, and communicate with clients directly to win their trust during execution.

• The VP will manage a team of junior staff to enhance the capabilities and skill sets of the existing high-caliber analysts.

• While the role is created to support existing deal flow and a very promising pipeline in the debt advisory space, it is expected that the VP will support origination as well over time. Relationships with investors/developers in the European power market and with IPPs, utilities will therefore form an important consideration for the role.

Required for this role:

• 8-10 years of experience in debt advisory with a strong focus on renewable energy.

• Experience working on both loans and bonds, private equity, and some experience dealing with rating agencies.

• Any additional background in the renewable energy industry that may have been obtained through an M&A role, a developer/IPPs, or through work for a technical and commercial advisor will be beneficial and will count positively towards the candidacy, but such experience will not suffice without the core debt advisory experience.

• With the business operating across the UK/Europe, there will be a strong preference for candidates with business fluency in a second European language.

On offer: a competitive salary package with a corporate benefits structure.
