About the role

  • New Leaf Energy (NLE) is a national leader in clean energy project development, with a long and successful history first as Borrego Energy's project development division and then as a stand-alone company.
  • Since that time, the company's product-market mix has grown and diversified, its capital needs have proliferated, and it has become more complex, financially and otherwise.
  • It is in this dynamic context that NLE seeks to hire a Senior Vice President, Finance and Capital (SVP).

Responsibilities

  • Partner with the CEO, Executive Team, and Board to shape and execute NLE's strategy.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally to evaluate business opportunities and market strategies.
  • Provide financial insight and decision support for investments.
  • Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team, fostering a culture of accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and business partnership.
  • Drive process improvements and systems enhancements that increase efficiency, transparency, and analytical capability across Finance and Accounting operations.
  • Drive boundaryless improvements in financial literacy and the ways it can be used to aid operational decision-making across the business.
  • Establish and maintain strong internal controls, financial policies, and governance practices that support a growing and increasingly complex organization.
  • Lead the company's overall capital strategy, ensuring the company has the money it needs to fuel operations and growth.
  • Oversee capital markets activities, including acting as primary commercial lead on key transactions. More than any other area, this is what has become more complex at NLE over the last year, with the company entering more capital-intensive business lines.
  • Lead relationships with investors and lenders, helping position the company for continued growth and operational flexibility.

Compensation

  • New Leaf Energy compensates all employees in three ways: market-competitive base salary, plus above-market variable compensation, plus an equity-like program such that all employees experience the benefits of ownership.
  • We use a data-driven and transparent methodology to calibrate compensation that is externally competitive and internally equitable, guided by the New Leaf Energy compensation manual, which is available to all employees.
  • New Leaf Energy benchmarks compensation to market data, but this is a new role for us, so we're continuing to establish the base salary range.
  • We expect it to fall between $250,000-$300,000.
  • Your actual salary may be above, in, or below this range, depending on your location and experience.
  • Our office locations in Lowell, Boston, Oakland, and Chicago all carry geography-based upward adjustments to the base pay range.

Benefits

  • Competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental and vision;
  • A 401k plan with immediate vesting and a company match (100% of the first three percent of your pay; 50% for the next two percent you contribute);
  • A parental leave policy for both birthing and non-birthing parents, available immediately upon hire;
  • Professional development and education assistance.

Company info

  • transparency, respect, and humility.
  • This position is CFO-track; at the moment we believe SVP is the appropriate level, but you can be promoted to CFO with great performance and company growth that warrants executive team expansion.
  • ECP, a leading energy transition focused private equity firm, bought Borrego's development business in 2022 and founded NLE.
  • A hybrid work location policy that supports working from home for part of the week;

Equal opportunity

  • Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion
