Are you a finance professional eager to drive real impact in the renewable energy transition?

Welcome to Alight — we're accelerating the shift to clean energy by building and operating solar and battery storage (BESS) assets for businesses across Europe. Our approach is financially sound, smart, and scalable — and we're just getting started.

As we grow, we're looking for a Project Financial Controller to help steer the financial success of our renewable energy portfolio. You’ll join a tight-knit financial asset management function (currently a one-person powerhouse) and collaborate closely with our Technical Asset Management, Procurement & Construction, and Investment & Finance teams.

In this role, you’ll be hands-on across the full lifecycle of our solar PV and BESS assets — from financial close and construction to long-term operations. It’s a chance to shape how we manage our assets as we scale, with real ownership, autonomy, and influence.

Your impact

As a Project Financial Controller, you’ll be the financial cornerstone of your assigned portfolio — ensuring each solar and battery storage (BESS) asset performs optimally while staying aligned with investor commitments and regulatory frameworks.

KEY OBJECTIVES & RESPONSIBILITIES

• Control the financial performance of assigned renewable energy assets, including financial reporting, contractual obligations, and claims.
• Support in contact with customers, ensuring financial clarity and responsiveness.
• Ensure compliance with conditions necessary to maintain the revenue structures of assigned renewable assets.
• Oversee monthly financial closures, including invoicing and payment processes.
• Support the preparation of annual accounts and facilitate audit processes.
• Support investor distributions with a focus on maximizing returns within the scope of financing agreements and compliance frameworks.
• Prepare monthly and quarterly performance reports, including variance analysis against budgets and profit & loss, and deep dives into production, liquidated damages, insurance claims, and operational expenditure.
• Contribute to the onboarding of new assets, ensuring service provisions are well-defined, appropriately priced, and supported by robust financial models.
• Maintain oversight of all onboarded assets to ensure financial and operational integrity.
• Provide internal reporting on asset performance for senior management, investors, and the Board through structured updates and ad hoc briefings.

We’re looking for you

To be a good fit for this role, we think you thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving environment where financial and operational challenges come together. You bring a structured, analytical mindset and a proactive approach — always looking for smarter ways to drive performance and value.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
