Job Description & How to Apply Below
Financial Analyst, Investments (2 openings)
Industry
:
Data Center Development | Investments and Infrastructure Finance
The Opportunity
We are partnering with our client that develops, builds, and powers large-scale data center campuses and leases them to hyperscale customers on long-term contracts. It is building the capital structure behind a fast-growing portfolio: project-level financing, securitizations and equity raises, and the underwriting discipline that decides which sites get built.
The investments team in Dallas is new, and it is adding two Financial Analysts. You will build and own the models behind each campus development and acquisition the company considers, and you will produce the analysis the investment committee relies on to decide.
You work directly with the Finance Manager, Investments, and the executive team, with growing exposure to the Board, lenders, and investors as financings progress.
What You'll Own
- Project-level financial models for data center developments and acquisitions: development cost and phasing, power delivery, operating assumptions, lease economics, returns (IRR, NPV), sensitivities and downside cases.
- Site and property analysis for land, campuses and acquisition targets.
- Investment committee memoranda, plus Board and Executive Committee materials and the analysis behind them.
- Lender and investor reporting as financings close.
- Portfolio and asset-level performance tracking against the original underwriting.
- Support on corporate and project financings as they arise.
What You Bring
- About two years in investment analysis, underwriting, investment banking, real estate or infrastructure investing, project finance, private equity or corporate development.
- Advanced Excel modeling and valuation skills, and the confidence to own a model end to end.
- A degree in finance, accounting, economics, engineering or a related field.
- Rigor in the detail. The models and memoranda you produce will drive real investment decisions.
- Based in, or within commuting distance of, Dallas, Texas. The team works from the Dallas office.
Who Gets Our Attention
Analysts who have already worked on real assets: data centers, power and utilities, real estate, or infrastructure. Capital-side backgrounds (investment banking, private equity, infrastructure, or real estate investing) stand out, particularly if you have underwritten an asset that didn't yet exist and had to model construction costs and phasing.
The Person
You are hands-on, and the work is yours to do. You can hold your own in front of senior leaders and manage several work streams at once without losing detail. You want to know what the numbers mean for the business, and you ask.
Location
Dallas, Texas, office-based, working from the company's Dallas office with the investments team and leadership. Commuting to Dallas is required.
Compensation
USD $100,000 to $110,000 base salary. Full-time, direct hire.
