Investment Analyst

Do you enjoy building financial models, evaluating investment opportunities, and supporting M&A transactions – and want to use those skills to accelerate the transition to renewable energy?

At Alight, you'll help identify, evaluate, and execute investments in solar and battery energy storage (BESS), contributing to the growth of a cleaner energy system.

Founded in 2013, Alight has been at the forefront of the Nordic solar industry, delivering some of the region's largest solar installations and pioneering hybrid solar and battery storage projects. Today, we're a leading independent power producer (IPP) of solar and BESS in the Nordics, with ambitious plans to grow our portfolio.

We're looking for an Investment Analyst to join our Investment team. Working closely with colleagues across Investment, Development, Legal and Finance, you'll gain exposure to the full investment lifecycle – from evaluating opportunities and conducting due diligence to executing transactions and preparing investment cases.

Your impact

As Investment Analyst, you'll play an important role in evaluating and executing investments across Alight's growing portfolio of solar PV and BESS assets. You'll combine financial modelling, commercial analysis and transaction support to assess investment opportunities and support investment decisions.

Investment Analysis & Financial Modelling

• Build, maintain, and improve financial models to evaluate solar PV and BESS investments, acquisitions, and development opportunities.

• Perform valuation analyses, including DCF, comparable company, and transaction analyses.

• Conduct scenario and sensitivity analyses to assess investment returns, key value drivers, and potential risks.

• Analyse project economics, investment structures and expected returns, and prepare financial analyses to support investment decisions.

M&A and Transaction Execution

• Support the evaluation and execution of acquisitions, divestments, partnerships and other investment transactions.

• Conduct financial and commercial due diligence, reviewing financial information, project performance, contractual arrangements, and key investment risks.

• Support transaction processes through financial analysis, valuation, research, documentation review, and coordination with internal and external stakeholders.

• Assist in reviewing key project and transaction documentation, including PPAs, EPC contracts and acquisition-related agreements, and prepare transaction materials for internal approvals and external counterparties.

Investment Origination & Market Analysis

• Support the identification and initial screening of new investment opportunities across Alight's markets.

• Conduct market, industry, and competitor research to assess market dynamics and identify attractive opportunities.

• Evaluate potential acquisitions, development opportunities and strategic partnerships, contributing to investment cases and assessments of risks and returns.

Portfolio Management & Financing Support

• Support the monitoring and evaluation of existing investments, including financial performance, investment returns, and key value drivers.

• Analyse portfolio performance and identify opportunities to optimise asset value.

• Support financing-related analyses and other strategic and financial analyses across Alight's business.
