About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to join an entrepreneurial, high-growth clean energy platform as Vice President, Clean Energy. You will work alongside an experienced leadership team to shape the business's next phase of growth, build and manage financial models for investment decisions, and lead workstreams through the due diligence phase, focusing on European markets.

Responsibilities

• Lead transaction workstreams, including due diligence and negotiation with developers and partners.
• Participate in and support the team's deal origination, bringing your own network and relationships to bear.
• Own the management of financial models, with in-depth knowledge of financial modelling to calculate project returns.
• Take responsibility for drafting investment papers, providing the Investment Committee with clear analysis of financial performance and investment rationale.
• Represent the team at meetings, conferences and internal discussions.
• Lead high-level negotiations with relevant counterparties on transactions, both pre- and post-acquisition.
• Perform sensitivity analysis to appraise projects and assess performance under different scenarios.
• Present financial models to investors, clearly communicating projected returns.
• Compile quarterly reports for debt financiers and investors, including calculation of covenant ratios.
• Assist in preparing annual budgets for project entities.
• Respond to investor requests in a timely manner, providing appropriate documentation.

Requirements

• Genuine buy-side pedigree, not purely advisory or sell-side experience.
• Prior experience at a private equity firm, infrastructure fund, or similar buy-side asset management platform.
• An existing network of developers, financiers and industry contacts to originate new opportunities.
• Genuine comfort leading a deal cycle end-to-end — from origination and negotiation through to due diligence and closing.
• Demonstrable track record in clean energy infrastructure / renewable energy, BESS/battery storage and/or data centre deals in Europe, with strong knowledge of the Spanish, Italian, German or broader European markets.
• Buy-side experience — at a private equity firm, infrastructure fund, or similar asset management platform — with a deal-sourcing network.
• Demonstrated experience leading deal cycles end-to-end, including negotiation with developers, financiers and other counterparties.
• Good general understanding of accounting, finance, company valuation and asset management.
• Extensive practical working knowledge of financial modelling, including modelling of debt financing.
• Good understanding of financial methodologies — leveraged buyout, forecast analysis, financial statement analysis and discounted cash flow analysis.
• Extensive working knowledge of financial analysis ratios such as yield, IRR and NPV.
• Good working knowledge of the support frameworks for renewables investments.
• Comfortable using AI tools and large language models to accelerate research, first-pass analysis and document drafting, with sound judgement on where human review is essential.
