WHAT YOU WILL DO DAY-TO-DAY:

You will work on a wide variety of Treasury and corporate finance

initiatives, with a substantial focus on Treasury, our project & corporate-
level debt facilities and Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A). On the
Treasury side, you will be responsible for coordinating and administering
various cash payments and receipts on DESRI’s seventy-plus solar and
wind projects, and financing corporate entities, while always ensuring
adequacy of funds. Additionally, you will work with various stakeholders,
including bankers, investors, senior management, asset managers, and
accounting to ensure that the cash side of the business is functioning
efficiently, while continuously developing and implementing process
improvements. You will also be responsible for preparing periodic
reports for the financing parties and senior management. On the FP&A
side, you will be responsible for forecasting DESRI’s short-term and
long-term cash position, both at the project and corporate levels,
tracking overall deal flow, planning for upcoming significant fundings,
identifying and alleviating liquidity and covenant compliance concerns,
and optimizing distributions. You will also need to use various existing
forecasting and budgeting tools in this process, while striving to build
these out further, and implement new ones to streamline, consolidate,
and broaden DESRI’s forecasting capabilities. You may have to work on
other areas of corporate finance such as working with lenders, investors,
counsel, and senior management on initiation, modeling, due diligence,
closing, and ongoing compliance of corporate financing facilities.
