We are looking for someone who takes ownership from the initial request through final execution: clarifying requirements, resolving open questions, securing approvals, coordinating signatures and payments, and confirming that commitments are fulfilled.

Funding and Payment Coordination

 * Drive funding requests, milestone payments, deposits, and prepayments through internal review and approval.
 * Maintain a consolidated view of requested, approved, committed, and paid amounts across projects.
 * Reconcile revised requests, funding reallocations, and previously paid amounts with Finance and providers.
 * Coordinate with Legal and Finance on loan arrangements, escrow releases, guarantees, and other funding structures when required.
 * Ensure documentation, signatures, and authorized approvals are completed before Treasury releases funds, and confirm payment receipt and allocation with providers.

Cross- Functional Execution

 * Establish clear owners, deadlines, and next steps across Infrastructure, Legal, Finance, Treasury, and Procurement.
 * Lead focused reviews to resolve open issues and secure decisions.
 * Prepare concise recommendations explaining the request, available options, financial implications, and delivery impact.
 * Escalate unresolved issues early and drive them through to closure.

Delivery Alignment and Reporting

 * Work with construction, power, and operations teams to connect commercial decisions to project schedules and capacity availability.

 * Provide leadership with clear reporting on outstanding commitments, upcoming payments, and decisions required.
 * Build repeatable processes for provider requests, approvals, documentation, and reporting as the portfolio grows.
