without distance from the work. You have the judgment and experience to advise a CFO, communicate confidently with lenders and banking partners, and understand the implications of complex financing structures — but you are equally comfortable opening the spreadsheet, logging into the bank portal, reconciling a cash position, reviewing a covenant calculation, or preparing a lender package yourself. \nYou don't need a large team to be effective. You know how to independently organize a treasury function, determine what needs attention, and get the work done. \nYou are highly analytical and detail-oriented, but you also understand the larger business context behind the numbers. You recognize how development schedules, acquisitions, construction activity, financing commitments, and operating performance ultimately affect cash and liquidity. \nYou thrive in an environment where the business may be growing faster than its infrastructure. Rather than waiting for perfect systems or processes, you build practical solutions that work today and can scale tomorrow. \nMost importantly, you take ownership. If something falls within treasury, you make sure it gets done accurately, thoughtfully, and on time. \n\nWhy Blue Sky Utility / Nofar USA \nThis role offers the opportunity to own a critical finance function while remaining directly involved in the work. \nThe Director, Treasury will work closely with the CFO and senior leadership and have meaningful exposure to the financing, acquisition, development, and operation of a growing U.S. renewable energy portfolio. \nYou will have the opportunity to: \n\n Own treasury end-to-end rather than manage one narrow piece of a larger organization. \n\n Work directly with the CFO on liquidity, financing, capital planning, and financial risk. \n\n Participate in complex renewable energy financings, acquisitions, and strategic transactions. \n\n Build treasury processes and infrastructure as the company's portfolio grows. \n\n Develop direct relationships with banks, lenders, brokers, surety providers, and other financial institutions. \n\n Work across corporate and project-level structures in a highly transaction-oriented environment. \n\n Have significant visibility and impact within a lean, entrepreneurial organization. \n\n \nBenefits\n\nWhat We Offer\nA Lean Team Where Your Work Actually Matters\n We operate with a lean, highly capable team, which means there aren’t layers of people between you and the work that matters.
