• Act as the trusted advisor between the COO, corporate finance, and technical engineering leads.
• Monitor broad energy industry trends and competitor operational strategies to ensure our asset performance metrics remain best-in-class.

• Experience: 6 - 10 years of progressive experience, ideally bridging corporate finance, commercial operations, or management consulting within the energy, utilities, or heavy infrastructure sectors.
• Executive Presence: Exceptional communication and presentation skills. Proven track record of drafting C-level board decks and articulating strategic vision to senior executives.
• Analytical Acumen: Strong financial and commercial analysis skills, with the ability to interpret technical/engineering data without getting lost in the weeds.

• AI-Powered Productivity: Hands-on experience utilizing Generative AI tools and prompt engineering to assist in slide creation, executive summarizing, data interpretation, and professional drafting.
• Presentation Tools: Advanced proficiency in Microsoft PowerPoint (experience with think-cell, Power BI, or AI-integrated presentation add-ins is highly advantageous).
• Structured Communication: Strong grasp of executive communication frameworks to craft compelling, logical slide narratives.
• Technical Empathy: Comfortable collaborating closely with engineers and digital monitoring teams; able to translate their work into business value.
