Want broader exposure than a traditional finance role? Get close to the deals, models and decisions shaping Africa’s renewable energy future.
Is this you?
You’re commercially curious, highly analytical and naturally take ownership. Rather than waiting for instructions, you spot what needs doing, ask intelligent questions and follow problems through. Detail matters to you, but so does understanding the bigger picture. You communicate confidently with senior and technical stakeholders and thrive in a fast-paced, lean team.
What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)
Working across project finance, treasury and investment analysis, you’ll build financial models, assess project returns, support debt and equity funding, credit assessments, valuations and Investment Committee processes. You’ll contribute to portfolio optimisation, M&A analysis and renewable energy transactions, while helping improve frameworks and processes. You’ll enjoy this because the exposure is unusually broad, with opportunities to help rebuild a group valuation model, develop credit-rating frameworks and support solar PV and battery projects from analysis through funding and execution.
Where you’ll be doing it
You’ll join a growing, multi-entity renewable energy organisation operating across SA within a technically driven and project-focused industry. The team is young, energetic and highly dedicated, with a strong work ethic balanced by a social and collaborative culture. Their offices are based in Stellenbosch. There is currently 2 days work from home.
What you’ll need
Bring a relevant Bachelor’s degree, ideally supported by CA, CIMA or CFA credentials or progress towards them. Around 4 to 6 years’ overall working experience is preferred, including 1 to 2+ years within financial analysis, project finance, banking, corporate finance, advisory or technical accounting. Strong Excel and financial modelling skills, critical thinking, attention to detail and financial literacy are essential.
What you’ll get
Beyond a market-related package, you’ll gain hands-on exposure to renewable energy investment, project finance, valuations, funding and strategic transactions in a small team where your learning curve and responsibility can grow quickly.
