Join to apply for the Energy Sector Advisor - Johannesburg role at Kuungana Advisory
An exciting opportunity in a rapidly changing sector. Kuungana Advisory is a UK-headquartered consulting firm that facilitates the transformational change required to increase access to environmentally sustainable and affordable energy supply in low and middle income countries.
We offer a unique blend of services:
- Designing the energy markets of the future – we prepare robust economic analysis to shape policy and regulation in the energy sector.
- Making net zero bankable – we help our clients to develop new and innovative business models that deliver affordable and reliable energy to end consumers, with a fair allocation of risk and reward.
Our modelling of electricity price projections sits at the heart of much of our analytical work. Kuungana was established in 2015, and our client base is expanding fast. Recent clients include donors and development banks such as the World Bank, EBRD, FCDO, UNOPS, and the IFC as well as private sector developers, investors, and lenders.
We are already working extensively in South Africa and the Southern Africa region. Recent projects have included:
- Advising an energy trader on an innovative guarantee mechanism, which will unlock new private sector investment in renewable energy.
- Identifying opportunities for renewable energy and battery storage procurement for a South African municipality.
- Acting as market advisor on the buy-side of multiple portfolio M&A deals, involving portfolios of assets in South Africa as well as across Sub-Saharan Africa as a whole.
- Modelling regional electricity prices, including in the competitive SAPP markets, and advising on the prices that can be accessed by different asset classes under different trading strategies.
What will you be doing? You will be working on a wide range of important projects across the areas highlighted above. In practical terms, this may involve research, market analysis, the preparation of reports and presentations, and the modelling of markets, companies, and projects.
Being amongst our first permanent team members in South Africa you will have an important role in growing our business in the country and through the wider Southern Africa region. As the firm grows, you will have the opportunity to manage individual projects and take on responsibilities in coaching and managing other members of the team.
What is the opportunity for you? Our focus on emerging economies means that you will have the opportunity to make a difference in your day-to-day project work. We have advised governments on policies to improve energy access for some of the poorest countries in the world and we have advised companies developing innovative new business models to accelerate progress on the energy transition.
Your reward package will be competitive, and we will facilitate flexible working arrangements (including part-time working) wherever possible. Working for a fast-growing company means that you have the opportunity to shape your role and our company, and to share in our success.
What are we looking for?
- You will have an analytical skill set and a demonstrable motivation to work on the projects that interest us.
- You will take ownership of your work, you will be able to meet deadlines, and you will be able to succinctly present the conclusions from your analysis.
- You will have the entrepreneurial drive to be part of our growth story, developing our business and our team.
You will have at least an Upper Second / UK 2:1 equivalent degree in an analytical subject. You must also be entitled to work in South Africa. This being our first recruitment round in South Africa, it is also important that you have at least 3 years of relevant energy sector work experience.
Beyond these key requirements, we are open to considering a wide range of candidates. The ideal candidate will also have some, but not necessarily all, of the following attributes:
