About the role
We are looking for graduates to join our relatively young, sociable and closely knit team as an Analyst. The successful candidate should like numerical analysis; thrive in a team atmosphere and have a good attention to detail. They will need strong verbal and written communications skills. We do not require extensive knowledge of finance or excel; however you should have a desire to develop these skills. You are probably the sort of person who enjoys solving problems. We offer extensive on-the-job training and opportunities for external qualifications.
The Analyst will report to an Associate Director and assist the team in the valuation of infrastructure and energy transition assets for our clients. This is primarily carried out in Excel using financial forecasting models. You will also build financial models and assist clients in making new investments or selling existing investments.
You will conduct reviews of an asset's up-to-date financial model to understand how its recent financial performance, as well as wider macro-economic trends, have affected the asset's projected cashflows. Your analysis will be presented to clients in a clear, easy-to-understand investor report. Through these reviews, analysts develop a deep understanding of financial modelling, and will take on an increasing amount of responsibility, laying the foundation for a career in finance.
