About Greenbacker Capital

Greenbacker Capital is a leading renewable energy investment firm dedicated to accelerating the transition to a sustainable future. The firm operates two primary lines of business: (1) its Independent Power Producer (IPP) platform, known as Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company LLC (GREC), which owns and operates renewable energy assets across the United States; and (2) the Greenbacker Development Opportunities Fund, which provides growth capital to early-stage clean energy businesses.

This AVP role is part of the GREC / IPP platform and focuses on the acquisition, structuring, and financing of utility-scale and distributed renewable energy projects.

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced and motivated AVP to join the Investments team supporting the GREC platform. This individual will play a pivotal role in sourcing, evaluating, and executing investments across utility-scale solar, distributed generation, battery storage, and wind assets. The AVP will be involved in both deploying equity into new acquisitions and arranging project-level debt and tax equity financing. This includes leading commercial diligence, performing financial and risk analysis, and developing bespoke transaction structures to solve for critical assumptions such as power purchase pricing, construction costs, and market dynamics.

Importantly, the Investments team remains involved throughout the full lifecycle of transactions. The AVP will have an important role in post-close management, working closely with portfolio management, and other internal team to monitor asset performance, address issues, and to execute on capital recycling opportunities. This ensures ongoing accountability and value realization across the Greenbacker's portfolio and investment hold period.
