About the role
is seeking a full-time Strategic Energy Management (SEM) Coach to join our growing Strategic Energy Management practice. In this role, you'll deliver SEM initiatives and energy reduction measures for industrial and commercial customers on behalf of utility programs. This role blends relationship building, engineering, and project management to cultivate customer engagement, deliver impactful training, and provide excellent service, all while continuously improving our SEM delivery and process. The SEM Coach will work alongside RI Energy Managers and Engineers. Rather than building an energy management function from the ground up, you'll team with an Energy Manager who knows their customer. They will expect a focused SEM experience to sharpen their existing relationship with structured cohort learning, best practices, and accountability. Success in this role means knowing how to add value alongside an already-capable internal partner, not just how to build capability from scratch.
What you'll bring
- Bachelor’s degree in engineering (mechanical, electrical, or similar), business, or another applicable field
- Strong communication skills — verbal, presentation, and written — with the ability to work effectively alongside an experienced internal counterpart without stepping on their role
- An engaging speaking style and the ability to adapt communication across audiences, from operations staff to executive leadership
- Excellent writing, interpersonal, presentation, and analytical skills
- Professional experience in the energy efficiency industry
- An understanding of systems found in commercial and industrial facilities
- Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects while meeting deliverable deadlines and budgets
- Ability to effectively distill and convey complex ideas into concise conversation/emails
- Comfortable managing projects and workflows with variable levels of ambiguity
- Demonstrated proficiency with Microsoft 365 software including Word and Excel
- Ability to travel up to approximately 20% of the time
- Interest in sustainability and passionate about making a meaningful impact on the environment.
