@betsychepkirui
Infrastructure & ESG advisory analyst delivering PPP and finance models, feasibility work, and ESG risk insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Infrastructure and ESG Advisory analyst with a strong foundation in audit, project finance, and development finance. I support Public-Private Partnership (PPP) and energy infrastructure engagements, including traffic- and toll-based revenue projects and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). As a CPA(K), I recently completed a Master of Science in Development Finance in November 2025.
At Grant Thornton Advisory East Africa Limited, I support infrastructure advisory work across transport, energy, and public sector projects using PPP and concession-based structures. I develop and analyze project financial models—covering traffic demand, toll revenue forecasts, operating costs, funding structures, and scenario assumptions. I also contribute to feasibility studies, investment appraisals, transaction support, and ESG risk and sustainability assessments.
Previously, as an Audit Associate at Grant Thornton Kenya, I executed external audit engagements aligned to ISA, preparing and reviewing financial statements under IFRS and IPSAS. In my earlier audit roles, I led full-cycle external audits across NGOs, manufacturing, financial institutions, SACCOs, and donor-funded projects. I performed internal control testing, process reviews, governance assessments, and supervised junior team members while supporting timely issue resolution.
I bring disciplined risk thinking, clear stakeholder coordination, and a delivery-focused approach to infrastructure transactions and advisory outputs.
