- Exceptional communication and presentation skills — comfortable crafting investment materials and pitching to stakeholders.
- Natural leadership and cross-functional collaboration ability — capable of driving complex projects forward with multiple moving parts.
- Commercial savvy with a strategic mindset — someone who sees the bigger picture while navigating details and risk.
- A hands-on, entrepreneurial spirit — eager to take ownership and drive real outcomes in a fast-paced environment.
- High integrity, resilience, and a collaborative, solutions-focused approach.
This is more than a development role — it’s a chance to be at the intersection of innovation, investment, and impact. You’ll join a team of driven professionals with a shared vision and the resources to turn big ideas into real-world energy solutions.
