Job role
Business analyst, CFO
A great opportunity for an energised, 'hands-on' business analyst to join a high-performing team within our Commodities and Global Markets Group. You'll be given the opportunity to be part of the team tasked with growing a new business focussed on financing the build-out of the waste management sector in connection with the global transition to a decarbonised, circular economy model.

This position can be based in Sydney or London. If you're presently based in Sydney, you will need to be willing and able to relocate to London after 12-18 months.

This is a front office role and presents a unique opportunity to work in a team with a 'start-up' mentality, with the support and resources of a global institution. You will interact with a diverse set of internal and external stakeholders in developing innovative financing solutions for novel, distributed resource recovery infrastructure.

Working closely in a small team, you will conduct research into existing resource recovery and waste sector operating models, as well as existing industry players and new technology start-ups. You will help develop novel funding structures, together with the financial models that underpin those structures, and help support and drive proactive engagement with prospective operating partners and clients. You will also take responsibility for working with internal stakeholders and external advisors to manage the risk acceptance and approval processes for new transactions, and negotiation of full and final legal terms with external counterparties.

Your passion for sustainability and natural ability to develop meaningful peer and stakeholder relationships will be paramount to your success in this role.

Bringing your prior sector experience, you will need to understand complex multi-disciplinary issues and demonstrate an ability to propose and implement desired solutions within a fast-paced working environment. Strong analytical thinking, organisational and problem-solving capabilities, as well as displaying attention to detail in all that you do, is expected.

As with any 'start-up' environment, you will need to be highly-motivated and proactive in identifying issues and be willing to pitch in to 'get the job done'. Taking ownership of your role and personal accountability will be essential.

To be considered you will preferably hold an engineering or science degree (although not essential), and have gained 2-4 years post qualification experience at a top tier investment bank, management consulting or engineering advisory firm. Your experience will need to have focussed on waste management, resource recovery and/or sustainability.

To apply, please submit a covering letter, concise resume and academic transcripts as one Word or PDF-formatted document. To include your cover letter and transcripts, simply insert the additional pages into the back of your resume and remember to upload /update your document in your Profile page. This is so that we receive the relevant documents for this position.
