NY Green Bank: Summer Analyst, Investment Administration & Portfolio Support

NY Green Bank (“NYGB”) is a globally recognized $1.0 billion sustainable investment management fund with the mission to accelerate clean energy deployment in New York State (“NYS” or the “State”) by collaborating with the private sector to transform financing markets. NYGB works to increase the size, volume and breadth of sustainable infrastructure investment activity throughout the State, expand the base of investors focused on NYS clean energy, and increase market participants’ access to capital on commercial terms. To achieve these objectives, NYGB develops transaction structures and methodologies that overcome typical clean energy investment barriers, such as challenges evaluating risk and addressing the needs of distributed energy and efficiency projects where underwriting may be geared more towards larger and/or groups of somewhat homogeneous investment opportunities. With more than $1.7 billion invested as of September 30, 2022, NYGB has demonstrated that many of the financial market barriers to sustainable infrastructure projects in NYS are surmountable. NYGB is a division of the New York State Energy Research & Development Authority (“NYSERDA”).

NYGB seeks a highly motivated, detail-oriented individual with excellent organizational, execution, analytic and communication skills to join the NYGB team in the position of Summer Analyst, Investment Administration & Portfolio Support (“IAPS”), reporting to the IAPS Director.

The Summer Analyst will gain hands-on experience to a wide variety of activities, clean energy transactions and the underlying energy technologies. The successful candidate will scrutinize the entire NY Green Bank portfolio of existing transactions and gain comprehensive knowledge of market leading energy transition financing terms and conditions. The Summer Analyst will work across the organization, especially with the Investment, Operations & Finance, Legal & Regulatory Affairs and Risk & Compliance teams.
