Associate, Energy Finance Full Time

The Associate, Energy Finance will be a core member of the Energy Finance team, focused on M&A, underwriting, structuring, and executing renewable energy transactions.

• Support execution of asset sales, project financings, and other capital markets initiatives.
• Coordinate transaction diligence, including data room management, Q&A, diligence trackers, third-party advisor inputs, closing deliverables, and internal approval processes.
• Prepare investment committee materials, transaction memos, investor presentations, and capital provider materials that clearly explain project economics, development status, financing strategy, key risks, and recommended transaction structure.
• Partner with Legal, Development, Tax, Accounting, and external advisors to translate commercial terms into financeable structures and executable transaction documents.
• Support negotiation analysis for offtake arrangements, tolling structures, EPC inputs, revenue assumptions, financing terms, and capital provider requirements.

Renewable energy underwriting

• Support investor, lender, buyer, tax equity, and strategic capital provider outreach, diligence, and transaction processes.
• Track market intelligence on renewable energy financing structures, BESS revenues, debt pricing, equity return requirements, asset sale valuation, and investor appetite.
