Join the power movement as Vice President, Capital Markets & Investor Relations

The Vice President, Capital Markets & Investor Relations leads investor relations and runs equity-based capital formation for CFS. The role executes the equity financing that funds the first ARC to the grid, manages relationships with a shareholder base that includes some of the world’s most sophisticated institutional, strategic, and sovereign investors, and builds the investor-facing infrastructure a company of our scale and ambition requires.

CFS requires additional capital to execute its plan and is deliberately path-agnostic about how it is raised — private equity capital, strategic and sovereign investment, project-level and infrastructure financing, and eventually the public markets. CFS is not committed to an initial public offering at this time. A central part of this role is helping the CFO, CEO, and Board determine the right path, and making sure CFS is prepared to execute on whichever path is chosen.

The role owns the raise process with the CFO, as well as every investor-facing artifact, the investor targets, the investor base, and the function itself. It works in close partnership with the CFO on capital strategy and with the SVP, Corporate Development, who maintains the master narrative. The position reports directly to the CFO, appears alongside the CEO and CFO in front of investors, and will hire and lead a small team as the function grows.

• Own equity raise processes: investor targeting, materials, management meetings, diligence — across growth equity, strategic, sovereign, infrastructure, and public crossover capital. The CFO sets capital strategy; this role owns the process that executes it
• Own every investor-facing artifact: the master deck, the one-pager, investor updates, the diligence pack, and the virtual data room, working from the master narrative that Corporate Development maintains
• Carry the equity story to market and pressure-test it: take the story to investors alongside the CEO and CFO, defend it under questioning, and feed market reaction back so it gets sharper, with scientific and engineering SMEs available for support
• Own objection handling: build and maintain the answers to key questions, including timelines, first-of-a-kind costs and schedules, competitive landscape, fusion’s place in the clean firm power mix
• Maintain the live map of the capital landscape across the pools that matter at scale — sovereigns, public crossover, private venture, infrastructure, pensions, high net worth — in the United States, the Gulf, Asia, and Europe
• Cultivate new anchor investors well ahead of need through systematic work with non-deal roadshows, conference presence, and a ranked warm bench by capital pool long before any process
• Manage the existing shareholder base with ongoing communications and milestone updates; steward a diverse group of investors and their information rights, with acquisition of clear demand signals into future financings
