Lead the Portfolio Finance team managing project financing execution and operations for 's distributed generation portfolio, focusing on Community Solar.
Обязанности
- Own the debt side of the Community Solar portfolio end to end: lead construction and permanent financing milestone execution with our bank lenders, own the lender relationships, size facilities, and manage exposure limits, draws, compliance and amendments
- Lead tax equity execution across active funds in partnership with the Manager who owns it: annual capital commitments, MC/interim/SC tranche fundings, ITC monetization and insurance, support term sheet and definitive document negotiations and the diligence for each new fund
- Own portfolio financial forecasts and models across assets, debt, and tax equity; establish and maintain consistent assumptions, definitions, controls, and update cadences for cash and GAAP reporting
- Direct transaction and financing supporting workstreams: diligence, data rooms, independent engineer and third-party deliverables, title and real estate reconciliations, regulatory filings and approvals, and closing execution
- Maintain a live feedback loop with Investments and Structured Finance so that pricing assumptions, transaction costs, and financing structures for new opportunities are based on portfolio experience
- Partner with Finance (Structured Finance, Treasury, FP&A, Accounting) on cash movements, reconciliations, liquidity planning, incentive accruals, and aligned portfolio definitions, including EBITDA and cash available for distribution
- Establish functional KPIs, data-quality standards and reporting to track financing progress, incentive monetization, program and portfolio returns, capital recycling, and performance against company targets
- Deliver against the function’s KPIs, e.g. tax equity funded within 30 days of mechanical completion, within 60 days of substantial completion, and construction financing closed within 60 days of notice to proceed
- Institutionalize what is currently informal: document processes and decision rights of a function that grew organically and design the function for scale; accountable for whether the processes hold up under volume, not for executing any single checklist
- Institutionalize clean handoffs from Project Delivery to Asset Management at key project milestones, ensuring that financial, operational, and contractual requirements are reflected in portfolio forecasts and execution plans
- Lead and develop the team, including succession for the roles the function currently depends on and reducing reliance on contract resources
- Own escalation: when a project, fund or counterparty pre-COD issue spans Investments, Project Delivery, Technical and Commercial Asset Management and Finance, you are the person who frames the risk and drives the issue to a decision, rather than the person who asks who is driving it
