Principal, Strategic Finance

Job Description

Job Description

Hut 8 brings exceptional people together to solve the world's most consequential problems at the intersection of energy and technology. Today, that means building infrastructure for AI at a pace and scale without precedent. Tomorrow, it could mean powering a new era of innovation through robotics, advanced manufacturing, or an industry that does not yet exist. Whatever the technology demands, our ambition holds: to build the defining physical infrastructure company of our generation.

We look for thinkers and builders with the rigor, humility, and ownership to solve problems at this scale. They start from zero and choose truth over tradition. They back the best idea, whatever its source. They bet on themselves and embrace the hard truths that force them to grow. Our commitment is to keep the path from idea to execution short, trust them with critical decisions and the work that follows, and surround them with colleagues whose curiosity extends beyond their expertise.

ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Strategic Finance, Principal you will play a central role in executing the financing and capital markets activities that fund the company's infrastructure growth and long-term financial strategy. Working alongside senior members of the Strategic Finance team, you will structure and evaluate capital solutions, build the analysis behind key decisions, and support transactions from concept through close — an ideal foundation for an ambitious finance professional in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

You will gain hands-on exposure to high-impact financing transactions, liquidity and capital planning, and the strategic decisions that shape the company's capital structure. You will work closely with senior leadership and regularly engage with banks, investors, and capital partners, contributing directly to outcomes as part of a small, fast-moving team.

Some of the key responsibilities you should expect are the following:

• Strategic Financing Initiatives:  Help identify, structure, and evaluate financing solutions to fund infrastructure investments, client contracts, and continued growth.
• Financial Modeling & Analysis:  Lead financial modeling efforts to assist senior finance team in analyzing opportunities and strategic decision making across equity, debt, lease, and hybrid capital solutions, including debt capacity, leverage, liquidity, covenant sensitivity, and downside scenarios.
• Capital Markets Support: Conduct market research across capital-markets trends, investor appetite, peer benchmarking, and emerging financing structures, and support the execution of capital raising and financing transactions, including evaluation of key financing terms, drafting presentations, and assisting with management of key lender and financial sponsor relationships.
• Special Projects : Contribute to high-visibility, cross-functional special projects that move the business forward.
• Strategic Recommendations: Contribute to the preparation of recommendations for firmwide investment committee on financing strategies, M&A opportunities, and new investment opportunities.
• Transaction Execution & Coordination: Support deal workstreams from launch through close — including data room management, diligence responses, and documentation coordination — and partner with legal, accounting, energy origination, tax, and corporate development teams to keep assumptions and deliverables aligned, maintaining a financing pipeline view across projects, counterparties, and key milestones.
• Materials & Documentation: Prepare lender presentations, internal decision materials, and committee decks, maintain closing documentation trackers, and support post-close handoff into covenant compliance and bank reporting.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• Timely and accurate delivery of decision-grade financial models and analysis with minimal managerial oversight.
• Effectively supporting the organization in an organized, well-controlled and timely execution of capital raising and corporate structuring projects.
• Establishing a proactive role in market research and staying informed on industry trends and pricing.

Contributing to internal and external presentations with comprehensive and clear analysis

ABOUT YOU
