What Jeremiah Does
Jeremiah Josey works as a Project & JV Architect and Project Management Consultant (PMC) on complex, capital‑intensive industrial and energy ventures. His work focuses on turning ambitious ideas into bankable, executable structures with aligned partners and clearly defined risk allocation.
Typically, a client engages him when they are facing a first‑of‑kind or politically complex project, need to align multiple powerful stakeholders, and cannot afford for the venture to stall in negotiation, approvals or execution.
Who This Is For
This engagement process is designed for principals, boards and capital providers who:
- Control or sponsor projects with capex in at least the low hundreds of millions.
- Operate on clear 12–24 month execution windows, not open‑ended “explorations”.
- Are prepared to work under formal engagements with defined economics and real decision authority.
Introductions from intermediaries are welcome, but the actual engagement is always agreed directly with principals and authorised decision‑makers.
Engagement Framework
Every project follows a structured, three‑phase framework, adapted to the specifics of the mandate.
Phase 1 – Strategic Framing & Partner Mapping
- Define the project and JV concept, structure and objectives.
- Analyse target geographies, regulatory and infrastructure context, and strategic options.
- Map, screen and prioritise potential partners and key stakeholders; outline term‑sheet structure and negotiation strategy.
Phase 2 – Negotiations & Execution Architecture
- Lead or co‑lead negotiations with partners, investors and key commercial counterparties.
- Coordinate and interpret due diligence (technical, financial, reputational) together with specialist advisers as needed.
- Shape the overall execution architecture, including interfaces with EPC and other delivery partners.
Phase 3 – Commercial Launch & Capital Readiness
- Develop or refine offtake and go‑to‑market strategies in line with project economics.
- Support financing readiness: structure, bankability elements and investor communication.
- Deliver a clear execution‑readiness assessment and structured handover to the owner’s team.
A typical engagement may emphasise one phase more than another, but the underlying structure remains constant so boards and sponsors always know where they are in the journey.
Work Products & Boundaries
Jeremiah’s core value lies in deal architecture, negotiations, and strategic leadership; written artefacts support that work rather than define it.
Included in the Engagement (Base Scope)
- Strategic memos and scenario notes.
- Review and high‑level commentary on documents prepared by clients, partners or their advisers.
- Partner shortlists, negotiation frameworks and phase‑end go/no‑go recommendations.
Optional High‑Impact Documents (Fee‑Per‑Document)
- Board‑grade strategic business plans and investor decks.
- Financial models and sensitivities.
- Information memoranda and focused marketing packages.
These documents are commissioned as discrete deliverables, scoped and priced individually, and are not included in base engagement fees.
Commercial Principles
Formal engagements reflect the scale and complexity of the work and the seniority of involvement. While specifics are agreed per project, the structure typically includes:
- Engagement Fee – non‑refundable, payable before commencement, covering initial structuring and framing.
- Monthly Retainer – fixed senior‑level fee for ongoing leadership and access to experience and network.
- Expenses – travel and out‑of‑pocket costs funded via prepaid floats or prompt reimbursement; no personal funding of project expenses.
- Optional Success Economics – where appropriate, additional upside (such as a success fee or equity‑linked component) may complement, but not replace, base cash compensation.
Details are finalised in a short, project‑specific engagement agreement once mutual fit is confirmed.
How to Initiate a Mandate
To begin a structured discussion under this engagement process:
- Go to the Contact page.
- Share a concise note including capex range, geography, stage, timeline and your role.
- Indicate whether board‑level sponsorship or equivalent decision authority is already in place.
Once received, Jeremiah reviews the opportunity and, if aligned, proposes either an initial call or a brief scoping step leading to a formal engagement outline.
