About the Role
The Project Finance Analyst will focus on the project financing and deal economics of floating nuclear power plants (FNPP) and commercial marine nuclear propulsion (CMNP). This role involves developing and maintaining financial models, providing economic analysis, and supporting capital formation strategies for novel energy infrastructure. The analysis directly informs pricing, commercialization, business model development, and investor engagement in a pre-revenue, first-of-a-kind business.
Responsibilities
- Provide project finance modelling, deal economics, and costing support.
- Conduct broader economic assessments covering market and competitive cost positioning, policy and incentive impacts, and business model economics.
- Work closely with the Director of Analytics, Commercial team, programme leads, and external partners to model, document, and prepare FNPP and CMNP deployment economics for commercial and investor use.
- Support the evaluation of capital formation and financing structures for first-of-a-kind deployment.
- Prepare deal economics and pricing analysis for commercial negotiations and business development.
- Support the development of analysis and materials for investor engagement.
- Coordinate with the Finance team to ensure project-level models align with corporate financial planning and fundraising materials.
- Apply team model standards, version control, and review processes.
- Contribute to the shared knowledge base.
- Support the development of graduate analysts in project finance methods.
- Operate effectively in a novel environment, forming and documenting defensible assumptions.
Requirements
- Builds and maintains project finance models for FNPP and CMNP deployments, covering SPV structures, capital structure/stack and gearing, cash flow and project returns (IRR, NPV, DSCR, payback).
- Models offtake and revenue structures, including PPA pricing, tolling, charter style and lease versus own arrangements, and how deal economics differ across end users.
- Develops financing scenarios and sensitivity analysis across cost of capital, contract tenor, delivery risk, refuelling and refurbishment cycles, and residual value.
- Benchmarks structures, pricing and returns against comparable energy and infrastructure transactions.
- Monitors relevant project finance market activity.
- Supports evaluation of capital formation and financing structures, including equity, debt, export credit agency and government-backed programmes.
- Maintains model documentation, assumption registers and audit trails to investment-grade standards.
- Provides support to economic analysis and cost modelling feeding delivery programmes.
- Supports bottom-up cost model development, lifecycle cost analysis and LCOE/TCO assessment.
- Independently tests and challenges external cost estimates from partners and vendors.
- Translates techno-economic outputs into commercial implications such as pricing floors, margin structure, breakeven and bankability.
- Conducts broader economic assessment with a commercial focus.
- 3 - 5 years experience in project finance gained at a bank, infrastructure fund, developer, utility or advisory firm.
- Energy or infrastructure project financing strongly preferred.
- Strong financial modelling capability, including project cash flow modelling and scenario analysis.
- Working knowledge of project finance structures and documentation, including SPVs, offtake contracts, security packages and lender requirements.
- Comfortable working across technical and engineering interfaces.
- Comfortable working with the ambiguity inherent in a novel industry.
