Role Overview

Maaden is seeking a Senior Joint Venture and Transaction Subject Matter Expert to serve as a senior reference for joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and complex industrial transactions.

Review partner proposals, due-diligence findings, business cases, risks, and decision papers, highlighting unresolved exposure and required mitigation.
Coach the internal Business Development team and transfer practical JV knowledge, tools, and precedent-based lessons.
Escalate delays, decision gaps, and partner commitment concerns early, with clear recovery actions.

Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Engineering, Law, or a related discipline; a relevant master's degree or professional qualification is preferred.
Typically 10+ years of relevant experience, including substantial leadership of industrial JVs, partnerships, M&A, or project-financed transactions.
Demonstrated experience negotiating HoTs, JDAs, JVAs, SHAs, offtake agreements, and complex governance arrangements.
Experience in capital-intensive industrial, mining, metals, energy, or infrastructure transactions is strongly preferred.
Proven ability to operate effectively with executives, Boards, partners, counsel, and multidisciplinary advisors.
