International Renewable Energy Platform | Head of Asset Management

Company:

A fast-growing international investor-developer with a major presence in Japan’s solar market. Since 2022, the firm has accumulated approximately 500MW of operating FiT PV assets and is now entering a new growth phase. Backed by a large global institutional investor, the Japan business has recently rebranded and is shifting its strategy toward building a diversified greenfield development pipeline, including CPPA-driven and storage-integrated projects, with a medium-term target of 1GW.

Opportunity:

• Take end-to-end ownership of operational performance, compliance and optimisation of a rapidly expanding operating solar portfolio.
• Lead all asset-level governance: reporting, budgeting, forecasting, technical reviews, lender communication and portfolio-level performance management.
• Drive optimisation initiatives across the fleet, including O&M improvements, repowering, equipment upgrades, cost reduction programs and risk mitigation plans.
• Work closely with Development, Investment and Finance teams to ensure smooth transitions from NTP to COD and long-term stable operations.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with EPCs, O&M service providers, landowners, insurers, utilities, banks and local authorities.
• Develop AM policies, processes and reporting structures as the platform moves from an acquisition-driven stage into a mature operations-focused business.

Advantages of the Platform:

• Fast decision-making and agile execution, reinforced by experienced technical, development and investment teams.
• Hands-on operating culture with deep experience resolving technical, financial and alignment challenges across Japan.
• Strong global exposure — close collaboration with overseas HQ and regional teams, with access to international best-practice, knowledge sharing and cross-market opportunities.
