Your mission is to maintain momentum, build trust with clients, and seamlessly coordinate internal technical, legal, and financial teams to get deals closed. To succeed, you should be just as comfortable on customer-facing calls as you are diving into a market model or reviewing a term sheet. If you are a continuous learner who wants deep mentorship, direct exposure to senior leadership, and the autonomy to manage complex, multi-stakeholder energy deals, this is the role for you.
