Financial Strategic Advisor

OverijsselHybrid36 hours/week<3months

A government organization faces a significant investment challenge in the coming years, particularly in areas such as housing, area development, educational housing, and infrastructure. Simultaneously, financial scarcity, limited implementation capacity, and grid congestion lead to increasing prioritization issues. The organization currently works with an existing strategic investment agenda.

The assignment is to further develop this system into an integrated multi-year investment plan with a 10-year horizon and to develop a coherent financial steering framework for it. The plan must enable the organization to gain multi-year insight into the total investment portfolio, its financial consequences, and the interdependencies and priorities.

What you do

  • Independently develop, elaborate, and deliver a multi-year investment plan and the associated financial steering framework.
  • Develop and deliver a methodology and model for a 10-year multi-year investment plan, which includes at least:
  • The total relevant investment portfolio
  • Scope and phasing of investments
  • Multi-year investment planning
  • Financial estimates and coverage
  • Interdependencies between investments
  • Available implementation capacity and relevant limitations
  • Financial impact of changes and prioritization choices
  • Relevant financial risks
  • Deliver a proposal for how the plan can be periodically updated and managed independently by the organization.
  • Develop and deliver a coherent financial steering framework for municipal investments, including principles and proposals regarding:
  • Reserves and provisions
  • Investment credits
  • Price development and indexations
  • Management and operating costs
  • Financial risks
  • Financial coverage
  • Multi-year financial effects of investment decisions
  • Develop and deliver a methodology by which investment projects can be assessed and prioritized in conjunction, making clear how factors such as available financial resources, implementation capacity, grid congestion, inter-project dependencies, financial risks, and administrative priorities can be translated into choices within the investment portfolio.
  • Deliver advice on the structural integration of the multi-year investment plan and the financial steering framework into the organization's existing planning and control cycle.
  • Deliver an implementation and transfer plan that enables the organization to independently apply, manage, and update the plan and the developed financial steering instruments after the completion of the assignment.
