Job description

Our client is a well capitalised, PE-backed IPP with a growing multi-GW portfolio of solar, storage and generation assets across the US. Having been genuinely aggressive on acquisitions in recent years while continuing to expand their operating fleet, they are now hiring a Strategy Manager to join their New York team.

This is a hands on seat, not a directing one. You will build the company's own long term supply and demand view, market by market and ISO by ISO, and use that view to inform real investment decisions: what gets acquired, held or divested. You will be working from first principles rather than off-the-shelf vendor output, so the ability to build a fundamentals model from scratch and defend every assumption in it matters more than familiarity with any one tool.

You will report into a senior strategy leader with a strong consulting background, sit within a small, sharp team, and have genuine exposure to the executive team and board from day one.

What you will do

• Build and maintain supply and demand / fundamentals models across the company's power markets
• Translate market, regulatory and policy shifts into a clear commercial vie
• Feed that view directly into acquisition, divestment and portfolio decisions
• Prepare analysis and materials for executive leadership and the board
• Work cross-functionally with development, finance and operations

What we're looking for

• Genuine hands on experience building power market fundamentals models, not just running or interpreting someone else's
• Real exposure to investment decisions, ideally around M&A, divestment or origination, at an IPP, developer, infrastructure fund or specialist power markets advisory
• Comfort presenting to senior leadership and holding your own under scrutiny
• 4+ years' relevant experience in power markets, renewables or energy finance

Compensation: competitive base plus benefits, commensurate with experience.
