About the company:

Blue Energy is a nuclear energy company focused on making nuclear power scalable, financeable, and deployable on a global scale. The company has engineered a factory-built approach to nuclear plant construction that dramatically reduces both cost and build time compared to traditional on-site construction methods. By prefabricating modular nuclear plant components in controlled factory environments and transporting them via barge for rapid on-site assembly, Blue Energy targets a three-year time to first power at approximately $5,000 per kilowatt, compared to the industry norm of 10-15 years and $15,000 per kilowatt. Blue Energy's mission is to remove the financial and logistical barriers that have historically prevented nuclear power from scaling, positioning it as a viable long-term solution to growing global energy demands, including those driven by the rapid expansion of AI infrastructure. The company operates plants long-term and delivers firm, clean energy, making nuclear power competitive and repeatable across diverse markets worldwide. The company has attracted significant investment and industry partnerships, including a $380 million fundraise announced in April 2026, a strategic investment from Constellation, and a collaboration with GE Vernova on a gas-plus-nuclear approach. Blue Energy is also collaborating with Crusoe to build a nuclear-powered data center. Led by a team described as veteran nuclear pragmatists and energy experts, the company aims to scale nuclear power within the current decade.

Company Overview

Blue Energy is transforming how nuclear power gets built. Instead of constructing each plant on-site from scratch - a process that takes 10-15 years and is too expensive and unpredictable to finance - we build our plants like ships: in a factory, on an assembly line, then transport and assemble them at the site. This cuts costs by over 60% and brings plants online in just three years. We also pair natural gas with nuclear at our sites, so customers can start receiving power from gas turbines right away and then switch over to clean nuclear power once it comes online - getting energy to the grid faster while nuclear is being built. Our mission is to make nuclear energy abundant, affordable, and repeatable at global scale. We use proven, already-approved reactor designs and work with existing nuclear and industrial sites, giving us a faster path to regulatory approval. By manufacturing this way, we put nuclear power on the same cost-reduction curve that has made wind, solar, and batteries cheaper every year.

Role Summary

The Accounting Manager leads day-to-day accounting operations at Blue Energy, reporting directly to the Controller. This role owns the full record-to-report cycle — from general ledger accuracy and financial statement preparation through to AP oversight, cash flow forecasting, debt covenant compliance, and equity tracking — while directly managing and developing a small team of accounting professionals.

Key Responsibilities

Financial Statements & Month-End Close

  • Prepare and review monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) in accordance with US GAAP

  • Lead the month-end close cycle — own the checklist, resolve blockers, and escalate to the Controller as required

  • Review, approve, and post all material journal entries including accruals, depreciation, ARO accretion, and intercompany eliminations

  • Maintain a journal entry log with full audit traceability from source transaction to financial statement

  • Prepare the monthly management accounts pack with variance analysis for the Controller

  • Co-ordinate year-end statutory accounts preparation and external audit support

Accounts Payable Oversight

  • Provide managerial review of the AP function — ensure three-way matching (PO, receipt, invoice) before payment approval

  • Review and approve payment runs above the AP Lead’s delegated authority threshold

  • Monitor the aged creditor report; resolve escalated holds and exceptions

  • Enforce segregation of duties between invoice entry, approval, and payment release

Cash Flow Forecasting

  • Own and maintain the 13-week rolling cash flow forecast, consolidating AP, AR, payroll, and capex inputs

  • Monitor actual cash against forecast; update assumptions on a rolling basis

  • Identify liquidity constraints and recommend corrective actions to the Controller

  • Prepare cash flow reporting for lenders, investors, and the board

Debt Compliance & Equity Tracking

  • Calculate all debt covenant ratios monthly (DSRC, LTV, interest coverage) and flag breaches immediately

  • Prepare quarterly and annual lender compliance certificates within agreed deadlines

  • Maintain the debt covenant tracker across all active credit facilities

  • Own and reconcile the equity roll-forward monthly — share capital, retained earnings, paid-in capital, distributions

  • Ensure all equity transactions are recorded with appropriate authorization documentation

  • Maintain the fixed asset register and CIP schedule for all capital projects

Team Leadership & Controls

  • Directly manage the Accounting Supervisor, AP Lead, and Accounting Analysts — regular one-to-ones, clear objectives, and active development support

  • Maintain and strengthen internal controls across all accounting processes; lead preparation for internal and external audits

  • Ensure compliance with US GAAP (ASC 360, 410, 606, 815, 842), company accounting policies, and applicable regulatory requirements

Qualifications

  • Preferred 6–10 years of progressive accounting experience, with at least 2 years in a management or senior supervisory role

  • Demonstrated hands-on experience preparing and reviewing US GAAP financial statements and managing a full month-end close cycle

  • Strong technical knowledge of journal entry preparation, balance sheet reconciliations, depreciation, ARO, and intercompany eliminations

  • Experience overseeing an AP function with direct knowledge of three-way matching and payment controls

  • Practical experience with cash flow forecasting and debt covenant monitoring in a capital-intensive environment

  • Familiarity with equity roll-forward schedules, CIP accounting, and fixed asset register management

  • CPA required; energy, utilities, or infrastructure sector experience is a strong plus

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Dynamics 365 or a comparable ERP platform
