  • Analyse M&A opportunities, partnerships, alternative growth options, and contribute to platform funding strategies and investment frameworks.
  • Support implementation of stage-gate processes and strategic initiatives across the platform.
  • Monitor portfolio and construction-stage asset performance, risks, and budgets.
  • Assist with project acquisitions, joint development agreements, government offtake tenders, and revenue mechanism analysis.
Ideal Candidate
  • 3-6 years' experience in investment banking, infrastructure funds, project finance, corporate finance, or consulting.
  • Strong financial modelling and transaction execution experience.
  • Degree in Finance, Economics, Engineering, or related field.
  • Understanding of BESS or energy infrastructure markets.
