Senior Manager, Capital Markets

As Scout's Capital Markets Senior Manager, you will play an integral role in capital raising activities for our growing portfolio of utility-scale wind, solar, and energy storage projects. We expect a high volume of transactions and are expanding the team to support that growth.

In this position, you will play a key role in project finance, corporate finance, and capital recycling transactions. Your work will include a combination of engagement with capital providers (debt, tax equity, and equity), transaction development and execution, and collaboration with teams across the organization. Your deal-oriented mindset will enable you to craft optimal capital solutions, identify and manage diligence risks, and efficiently drive transactions to close - all while integrating the Scout Values in the way you work and relate to others.

Key duties in your role will include the following:

* Own transactions across the investment lifecycle - from origination to due diligence, definitive documentation, and deal closing.

* Develop compelling transaction marketing materials for distribution to prospective lenders and investors.

* Analyze and negotiate term sheets and proposals to support recommendations for optimal financing structures to senior management.

* Oversee transaction models for debt, tax equity, and other equity processes.

* Oversee transaction due diligence and interface with external financing parties and consultants.

* Develop and manage relationships with external counsel, advisors, and providers of debt, tax equity, and equity capital to optimize our project financings.

* Drive on-time conclusion of approval and closing processes by coordinating with internal and external stakeholders.

* Complete other duties as assigned.

You will report to the Director of Capital Markets. You will be a tight-knit and efficient group that collaborates effectively to execute transactions. Our team's work style requires both collaborative and independent work at all levels; the Senior Manager would engage in a combination of doing work independently and overseeing the work of others, growing into a manager for junior associates.
