Market Advisor

The Role

We're hiring our founding Market Advisors to build Modo Energy's Advisory Services team in the US.

Most of our 200+ clients get Modo Energy's data, forecasts, and research through a subscription. Advisory Services takes that same platform a step further, into the decisions themselves: whether an acquisition is worth the price, whether to build at two hours or eight, and which markets to move into next. Those are the questions clients bring us, and Advisory Services answers them.

The Advisory Services team started in Europe, with a proven model: a growing book of work with investors, lenders, and developers active in European battery markets. We're already seeing demand for this work in the US, without an Advisory Services team here to meet it. That's what you'd be building. You'll work as part of a global Advisory Services team alongside the London-based team.

The job runs from the first conversation to the final answer. You find the work and win it, then build the revenue case yourself and stand behind it in front of the investor or lender relying on it. The European Advisory Services team and Modo Energy's US research analysts are there to draw on, but the work is yours to own and defend.

This role is based in New York and reports to the Head of Advisory Services in London.

What You'll Be Doing

• Provide commercial due diligence and transaction support for clients buying, selling, or raising finance against batteries and clean energy assets.
• Originate advisory work in the US market: build a pipeline from Modo Energy's client base and the wider market, qualify it, price it, and convert it.
• Turn Modo Energy's data, forecasts, and research into tailored outputs built for a specific client and a specific decision, rather than generic output.
• Do the analysis yourself. Build the revenue case for an asset, then open it up to an investment committee, a lender, or the counterparty's advisers: the assumptions, the sensitivities, and what changes if they take a different view.
• Present your analysis directly to clients, banks, and counterparties, and represent Modo Energy at US industry events.
• Own projects end to end, from first conversation through to the client presentation.
• Build a working knowledge of storage and clean energy economics across ERCOT, CAISO, PJM, MISO, SPP, NYISO, and ISO-NE, rather than specialising in one.

What We're Looking For

The Essentials

• You know the US power and storage markets well enough to hold a view in front of a client. We'd look for time spent advising on it — commercial due diligence, transaction advisory, or consulting — or operating in it, at an IPP, fund, optimizer, developer, or utility.
• You can win work, not only deliver it. We'd look for a track record of engagements, mandates, or deals you brought in yourself, and relationships with investors, lenders, and developers you could pick up again here.
• You build and present models to investment committees and lender meetings. We'd look for analysis you've owned and defended in the room, and the depth to take an assumption apart under challenge and show exactly what it does to the answer.
• You do your best work with freedom and responsibility. Modo Energy runs on both. We'd look for someone who has gone and found the opportunity rather than waiting for one to be handed over, or who has felt slowed down by sign-off and process somewhere larger.
• You want to build something. The platform, the brand, and the clients are already here; the advisory practice isn't, and we'd look for someone who wants to be one of the names people in US energy know, and to build a career here as it grows.
• Able to start within a reasonable timeframe and authorized to work in the US without sponsorship.

Nice To Have

• You're deep in the assets themselves — batteries, wind, solar, or data centre load. We'd look for work you've run on investment analysis, offtake negotiation, or risk quantification.
• You're visible in the US energy market. Writing, speaking, panels, or a following that means people recognise your name before you introduce yourself.
• You've been part of something being built. A new desk, product, office, or service line, where the playbook didn't exist yet.

Compensation & Equal Opportunity

• Base salary range: $110,000–$170,000 per year, depending on experience
• The salary range listed reflects industry benchmarks for this role. Modo Energy's policy is to pay top of personal market - if you're exceptional, we'll make it work
• Equity
• 25 days PTO plus 10 paid Holidays annually

What You Can Expect From Us

At Modo Energy, we believe that exceptional work deserves exceptional reward. We're a high-performance team; ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely motivated by the scale of what we're trying to build.

You'll have real ownership from day one, work alongside some of the brightest people in the industry, and be part of a company that's defining a new category in the global energy market. We're hybrid: everyone works Tuesday to Thursday in our NYC office, with Monday and Friday flexible. We offer top-of-market compensation, equity for every employee, and the space to take your career wherever you want it to go.

We're looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers. If that's you, we want to talk.
