Job Description
Comity is looking for an Advisor for our Utility Strategy to guide the design and positioning of our credit management solutions for maximum adoption by electric utilities. This is an advisory role for a seasoned former executive who has firsthand experience managing credit risk, liquidity, and collateral structures at a utility with significant renewable energy exposure. You’ll help us bridge the gap between product innovation and utility acceptance: bringing insider knowledge of how utilities evaluate counterparties.
You’ll play a pivotal role in making sure our products and services speak the language of utilities, clear internal hurdles, and are positioned to become a trusted alternative to traditional credit management practices.
Advise on design: shape the structure and features of our collateral product so it aligns with utility credit standards and practical requirements. Guide utility engagement: identify the right stakeholders and decision-makers within utilities and advise how best to approach them. Stress-test acceptance: anticipate potential objections, explain what utilities really care about, and help us refine messaging to maximize credibility. Leverage your network: open doors to relevant contacts across utilities and industry associations to accelerate education and adoption. Be a sounding board: provide ongoing perspective on how utilities perceive credit risk, collateral, and counterparties in today’s power markets.
