• Former treasurer, CFO, or senior credit/risk executive at a major electric utility with responsibility for credit exposure and collateral instruments.
• Deep network of relationships across the utility sector, especially with credit, treasury, and risk decision‑makers.
• Understanding of how utilities evaluate credit risk, liquidity, and collateral, both formally and informally.
• Experience with renewable energy exposure, such as managing renewable PPAs or owned generation assets (preferred).
• Ability to translate experience into concrete, operational recommendations for product adoption.
