Role
Who you are

- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field
- 2-4 years in investment banking, corporate development, or private equity, followed by 2-3 years in a corporate finance, treasury, or investor relations role, or 5+ years in a highly transactional finance role with direct experience managing complex, document-intensive transactions involving multiple external stakeholders
- Advanced Excel skills, with demonstrated experience building and maintaining complex, multi-driver financial models
- Demonstrated ability to quickly learn and synthesize complex technical or engineering concepts and translate them for a financial audience
- Exceptional organizational discipline and follow-through, with the ability to drive dozens of simultaneous requests across internal and external stakeholders while maintaining accuracy and meeting aggressive deadlines
- Experience managing confidential information and materials in a high-stakes, detail-sensitive environment
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to produce polished, investor-ready materials
- Comfort and credibility working directly with senior executives and external investors/lenders
What the job involves
- We're looking for a Corporate Finance Manager to join our team and help translate a sophisticated operating model and technology platform into a compelling, well-supported narrative for the partners who fund our growth
- Reporting to the Director of Corporate Finance, you'll play a central role in investor due diligence, financing execution, and fundraising materials with direct exposure to our CEO and senior leadership and the opportunity to work on complex, high-stakes capital raises
- Lead and coordinate investor and lender due diligence efforts for corporate debt, project finance, and equity capital raises, managing individual investor data rooms with strict attention to confidentiality and information access
- Serve as the central coordinator across fundraising and diligence workstreams, gathering input from engineering, operations, legal, and finance teams and driving accountability to ensure responses are complete, consistent, and delivered on time
- Manage multiple concurrent fundraising, diligence, and financing workstreams, tracking deliverables, coordinating stakeholders, and ensuring critical deadlines are met
- Maintain the organization's fundraising and diligence knowledge base, keeping historical investor responses, supporting documentation, financial models, and technical materials organized and readily accessible across the team
- Drive execution of financing transactions in partnership with the Corporate Finance team and outside counsel, supporting note financings, warrant issuances, closing checklists, signature collection, and related documentation from diligence through closing
- Support the maintenance and enhancement of the company's long-range financial model, building analyses and incorporating updates related to fundraising, project development, and technology performance
- Develop and continually update investor-facing materials, including the Confidential Information Memorandum (CIM), lender decks, and periodic investor updates, ensuring communications remain accurate, consistent, and appropriately tailored to the diligence requirements of each stakeholder
- Support and coordinate technical diligence efforts related to our infrastructure and technology projects, translating complex technical information into clear, investor- and lender-ready materials
- Work directly with the CEO and senior leadership on investor meetings and fundraising strategy, representing the company professionally with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders
- Manage quarterly and monthly investor and lender reporting requirements across multiple concurrent financing processes
- Support future preferred equity fundraising rounds as the company continues to scale
Our take
In the race against climate change, innovative solutions such as Twelve’s carbon transformation technology has the potential to positively impact a broad variety of sustainable consumer products. Reinventing what it means to be a chemical company, its technology allows companies to eliminate the need for fossil fuels across their supply chains and operations.
Carbon transformation is essentially industrial photosynthesis, converting CO2 emissions into critical chemicals and fuels with just water and renewable energy. And Twelve’s technology is able to integrate into existing industrial systems and supply chains. This is a major benefit to companies trying to reach lower emission goals.
In 2022, the company launched its first commercial products and is partnered with a range of companies, including Mercedes-Benz, Procter & Gamble, Shopify, and NASA. It also announced an SAF purchase agreement with a large European-based airline company, where, over 14-years, it will supply 260M gallons of SAF to support its five airlines. This, alongside investment from United and the opening of America's first commercial E-Jet Fuel Plant in 2026, showcases the demand for the company's innovative technology and SAF.
