Director, Deployment

The Nuclear Company•Washington, DC

5d•$178,000 - $204,000

About The Position

The Director, Deployment owns financial planning and analysis for TNC's active construction portfolio across up to 19 owned nuclear projects, including the Brookfield JV's anchor project at VCS Units 2 and 3. As developer, TNC contracts EPC firms to build each project; this role tracks capital deployment against the Long-Range Plan and monitors EPC firm performance against contract terms, flagging cost or schedule variances before they hit the P&L. The Director partners directly with Project Directors, the JV finance team, and the VP, FP&A to keep deployment-stage spend disciplined as TNC scales toward IPO. This is a build-it-as-we-grow role: reporting rigor has to scale with a portfolio that adds new projects every quarter.

8+ years in FP&A, project finance, or capital/construction finance.
Direct experience managing EPC contracts from the owner/developer side, or overseeing large-scale infrastructure and construction spend.
