Responsibilities

• Provide strategic, commercial, and financial advice for infrastructure capital programs.

• Advise on funding and financing strategy, including public grants, credit programs, and financial solutions for public and privately financed projects, such as public-private partnerships (P3).
• Develop, oversee, and/or interpret financial models (project finance and public-sector program cost models) including scenario and sensitivity analysis to support client decision-making.
• Lead financial analyses to assess NPV, ROI, IRR, and other relevant financial metrics through discount cash flow project financial modelling.
• Lead multi-disciplinary teams and liaise with other Hill International business units.
• Deliver client engagements independently.
• Represent Hill Advisory at conferences and speaking engagements.
• Contribute to business development to identify and pursue new client relationships, partner relationships, and shape proposals.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Economics, Finance, Engineering, or a related field; an advanced degree (MBA or equivalent) is a plus.
• 10-15+ years of relevant post-education experience in infrastructure advisory, management consulting, project finance, infrastructure investing or other relevant backgrounds.
• Direct, hands-on experience with alternative delivery transactions, ideally including experience as an agency advisor.
• A strong grasp of infrastructure project finance mechanics: project financial modeling, funding, and financing strategy, and public credit programs.
• Fluency in developing, interpreting, and negotiating project contracts, agreements, and procurement documents. Ideally with heavy exposure to alternative delivery project contract development.
• Demonstrated ability to lead engagements independently, manage client relationships, and develop new business.
• Excellent writing and communication skills, including the ability to distill complex financial and commercial analysis for executive and board audiences.
• A track record of advising public agency executives or boards directly, with the judgment and presence to be a trusted advisor in the room, not just a preparer of analysis.
