About this role
A business development lead for RENOVA's overseas renewables business, focused on the United States and positioned as a future project manager. The role is based at the Tokyo headquarters and drives projects directly as the developer, working with local partners through business trips rather than supporting an overseas subsidiary. Target assets are grid-scale battery storage and large solar (including solar with storage).
The mission has two parts: sourcing and origination (finding partners, identifying new projects and acquiring development rights) and, after acquisition, pushing projects to final investment decision. Work includes market analysis, partner networking, due diligence, negotiations with offtakers, EPC contractors, suppliers and lenders, financial modelling, and leading the internal investment approval process.
Required: the ability to hold discussions with English speakers, and energy or infrastructure experience in at least one of business development or investment and lending, contract negotiation (EPC, equipment supply, offtake, financing), or financial modelling and project economics.
