About Calibrant Energy

Calibrant is a leading provider of on-site energy solutions. Calibrant develops, owns, and operates large-scale solar, battery storage, and microgrids on behalf of our customers—empowering North America's largest power users to achieve their energy goals faster, more economically, and more sustainably.

By combining innovative financing with deep industry expertise, we solve complex energy challenges for large organizations. Our performance-based, no-capex contracts ensure we only get paid when we deliver results—enabling organizations to share in cost savings without any upfront investment.

Position OverviewThe Senior Financial Analyst is the forecasting and analytical center of our finance function. Where the accounting team closes the books, this role turns that output into forward-looking decision support: the consolidated cash forecast, the annual budget, project-level economics, and the reporting our lenders, sponsors, and partners rely on.

You will work directly with senior finance leadership and present to the executive team. The scope is real from day one, and it grows for someone who earns it. We are looking for an experienced finance professional who can build the number, defend the number, and say what the business should do about it.

Principal Duties and ResponsibilitiesForecasting & Liquidity

The consolidated cash forecast and the core FP&A model — rolling liquidity, funds flow, and debt service across the entity structure.

The weekly cash outlook, and a clear explanation of every material forecast-to-actual variance.

Funding requirements for projects under construction, with the downside and sensitivity cases around them.

Budgeting, Planning & Variance

The annual budget and reforecast cycles across SG&A, headcount, and project capital.

Monthly budget-versus-actual reporting with driver-based commentary — the story, not just the variance column.

Assumption-setting with department leads, and accountability to those assumptions through the year.

Lender, Sponsor & Investor Reporting

Recurring reporting packages for project lenders and equity sponsors.

Covenant calculations and a forward-looking view of headroom, so risk surfaces early rather than at a deadline.

Sponsor, joint-venture, and tax-equity reporting.

Project Economics & Transaction Support

Project-level revenue, margin, cash, and return reporting, reconciled back to the general ledger.

Performance analysis by project, customer, technology, and revenue stream.

Operating results measured against original underwriting, with the drivers of any gap quantified.

Analytical support on financings, refinancings, and asset sales, and on capital allocation decisions.

Systems & Analytical Standards

Moving recurring reporting out of spreadsheets and into the ERP, and helping select and implement a dedicated planning platform.

Documentation of critical models and processes to a hand-off standard.

Automation that removes recurring manual work from the monthly cycle.

What Success Looks LikeWithin 90 days, you own the weekly cash outlook and the monthly consolidated forecast end to end.

Within six months, budget-versus-actual reporting and the covenant forecast run on a fixed calendar, with commentary leadership can act on.

Within twelve months, the reporting cycle runs on systems rather than spreadsheets, critical models are documented to a hand-off standard, and you are the person leadership calls before a decision rather than after.

QualificationsRequired

  • 3–6 years in FP&A, corporate finance, project finance, transaction services, or public accounting moving into industry.
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Advanced Excel modeling: three-statement and cash flow models, scenario and sensitivity analysis. You can build a model from a blank worksheet, and you can audit someone else's.
  • Working knowledge of US GAAP and a practical understanding of how accounting output drives forecasting.
  • Multi-entity experience, including consolidation and intercompany, with the ability to pull and reconcile your own data from an ERP.

Nice to Have

  • Energy, renewables, infrastructure, or another project-financed business.
  • NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, or a comparable multi-entity ERP.
  • Project-level debt, covenant reporting, tax equity, or partnership waterfalls.
  • Planning tools (Anaplan, Adaptive, Vena) and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau).
  • CPA, CFA, or active progress toward either.

We believe in fostering an inclusive environment in which employees feel encouraged to share their unique perspectives, leverage their strengths, and act authentically.

At Calibrant Energy, our priority is to ensure that every team member feels valued and supported. We believe putting wellness first supports a full, holistic, and happier life. We support that by offering benefits that cover you and your family such as: medical, dental, vision insurances, paid time off, paid personal time, paid holidays, paid birthday, paid sick time, company paid short term disability and long term disability, company paid life insurance, 401k with a company match, and more.
