**Grade Level (for internal use)**: 13
**The Role**: Director, Global Infrastructure/Project Finance North America - S&P Global Ratings

**Grade ( relevant for internal applicants only )**: 13

**The Location**: New York, NY; Toronto, CA considered

**The Team**: You will be an important member of a team based in New York, San Francisco, Toronto and Denver. The team is dedicated to project financings, focusing on a wide range of infrastructure assets including toll roads, managed lanes, airports, social accommodation and contracted single-asset power. You will work closely with a number of highly experienced industry specialists, not only on our team but across other teams in the Americas that rate project financings that are often structured as public private partnerships. You will report to the manager based in San Francisco and have day to day responsibility to coach, mentor and manage a small group of analysts that cover a subset of our team’s portfolio.

Project finance experience is a critical pre-requisite. In addition to this professional background is the personal and cultural fit.

We also work across time zones and teams to share knowledge and resources.

**The Impact**: At S&P Global Ratings, your analytical opinion truly matters and each person who works here has an essential role in our reputation of integrity, transparency, and ratings excellence.

The successful applicant will have the opportunity to further expand analytical excellence on an ongoing basis as we aim to encompass achievement within a working environment that is rewarding, stimulating and where there is a constant focus on building skills and competencies through learning.

Infrastructure is one of the fastest growing sectors of the capital markets and is a key funding source and growth driver for many areas of the economy. If you are interested in helping to facilitate this growth while challenging yourself in a fast-paced environment, this is the right position for you. It offers the opportunity to work in a collegial culture with great potential for professional development and career growth.
To succeed, you must be comfortable with quantitative analysis, modeling and financial forecasting and have a knack for problem solving.
