Project Finance Senior Analyst

As Scout’s Senior Financial Analyst, you will leverage your past experience in financial analysis of renewable energy and / or power sector projects to inform strategic decisions in every aspect of Scout’s business. You will provide key support to PPA origination, project finance, corporate finance, and capital recycling transactions. Beyond your financial modeling and analysis, your work will include a combination of engagement with capital providers (debt, tax equity, and equity), and day-to-day management of projects and transactions. You will represent Scout with authentic professionalism to our business partners, counterparties, and stakeholders. In short, you will help to underwrite and execute Scout’s investment strategies across the portfolio of projects.

You will be responsible for project-based financial modeling and preparing documentation, reporting and analysis to assist investment decisions. Your work will impact many functions across Scout, including :

• Development : You will provide insight to the Development team about which inputs drive their projects’ financial performance so that they can adapt their development plans accordingly.
• Origination :  Your analysis will inform pricing strategies developed by the Origination team to ensure that the long-term revenue streams will contribute to target rates of return and integrate needed risk management strategies.
• Project Finance & Capital Markets : You will provide support to project and corporate capital raising transactions. You will build project-specific models, refine and integrate inputs, and determine which scenarios to run based on the project opportunity. You will also support day-to-day management of transactions, coordinate consultants and diligence, and interface with internal and external counterparties.
• Corporate Finance :  While the bulk of your work will focus on project-level finance, you may also inform and assist with corporate-level financial modeling and transactions from time to time. This will include integrating the results of the project models, conducting more specific analysis, preparing reports for our investors, and preparing board papers that present the case for alternative investment options.

You will work as part of a high performing team within the Project Finance & Capital Markets group.
