Lightsource bp | Denver, CO or Austin, TX | Hybrid Department: Finance | Reports to: Head of Regional Finance, US
Lightsource bp is a global leader in onshore renewable energy development, delivering large-scale solar and energy storage solutions that power the energy transition. For over a decade, we've been diversifying the way the world is powered through responsible, sustainable renewable energy. Fully acquired by bp in 2024, Lightsource bp operates under a capital-light investment model — retaining management and equity interest in projects while leveraging third-party capital, including debt, tax equity, and structured equity financing, to fund our growing portfolio. Our people and projects are focused on long-term sustainable growth, energy security, and a cleaner future.
The Opportunity
Lightsource bp is seeking a Senior Manager, Investment Management to join our U.S. Finance team, based in Denver or Austin. The Investment Management (IM) team serves as the primary interface between Lightsource bp and its capital partners — from the close of financing transactions through ongoing day-to-day relationship management, reporting, and commercial interaction until potential full exit. In this role, you will provide critical financial modelling and analytical support across our U.S. renewable energy portfolio, working closely with Structured Finance, Asset Management, Finance, Power Marketing, Legal, and Engineering teams to drive portfolio performance and long-term value.
What You'll Do
Build, develop, and maintain robust financial models for individual asset portfolios, including return and valuation calculations, debt sizing, ratio analysis, and scenario sensitivities
Update portfolio models with actuals and maintain monthly, semi-annual, and annual cash flow models
Provide support on debt financing, refinancing, and M&A transactions
Work with independent advisors (technical, legal, tax) and internal teams to develop deep knowledge of asset value drivers
Deliver clear, high-quality financial modelling advice to both specialist and non-specialist stakeholders

Manage covenant reporting, waiver and approval requests, debt service payments, sponsor distributions, and credit support facilities such as Letters of Credit
Contribute ideas for new investment or divestment opportunities, including maintenance capex, operational improvements, and commercial contract enhancements
What to Expect in This Role
This is a high-impact role in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment. You'll be expected to think several steps ahead, distill critical matters for senior leadership, and balance regular deliverables with the ability to step up on time-sensitive or high-priority issues. You'll work across teams globally, leveraging best practices and contributing to Lightsource bp's continued growth in the U.S. renewable energy market.
