We are looking for candidates with energy sector or infrastructure experience gained across electricity networks, renewable energy, utilities or consultancy and professional services firms supporting clients in these markets.

• Preparing and presenting investment cases, papers and recommendations, working with commercial, finance, technical and operational colleagues.
• Leading, mentoring and reviewing team members while improving modelling standards, governance and analytical quality.
• The ultimate objective is to support sensible, sustainable and profitable deployment of company capital reserves.

This is a senior, demanding role and we are looking for candidates with relevant experience and the credibility to influence investment decisions.

To be considered for this role we are looking for people with:

• Experience gained in electricity, renewable energy, infrastructure investment, consulting firms supporting these sectors or professional services firms.
• Knowledge of project finance, corporate finance, investment management, economic analysis or other relevant experience using financial modelling skills.
• Confidence with valuations, assumptions testing, long-range forecasting and taking a longer-term view of ROI.
• Strong financial, economic or investment-modelling ability, and confidence reviewing Excel-based analytical work.
• Proven experience leading people, developing analysts and communicating recommendations to senior stakeholders.
• You may be CFA qualified, a qualified accountant or an economist with relevant modelling experience. Equivalent practical experience will be fully considered.
