Start date: Early 2026

Compensation: Target base salary $80,000–$120,000 (commensurate with experience)

Why this role: You’ll lead complex market‑transformation and decarbonization assignments, shape client strategy, and mentor consultants—advancing practical pathways to building decarbonization and deep retrofits at scale.

What you’ll do

• Lead multi‑workstream projects from scoping through delivery: define methodology, set QA standards, oversee analysis, and drive decision‑ready recommendations.
• Own client relationships: clarify scope, manage change, present to executives and program owners, and steward satisfaction and follow‑on opportunities.
• Design and facilitate stakeholder engagements (focus groups, workshops, technical roundtables) that reconcile competing priorities into actionable plans.
• Author high‑impact deliverables: executive summaries, decision memos, technical appendices, implementation roadmaps, and conference‑ready presentations.
• Drive business development: shape win themes, lead proposal strategy, price level‑of‑effort, and coordinate teaming; coach others to write winning bids.
• Mentor & quality‑assure: review work products, coach intermediate/analyst staff, and institutionalize templates and best practices.
• Represent FRESCo: thought leadership, panel appearances, and client briefings.

What you bring

• 8+ years in building retrofit planning/strategy and/or program/policy consulting with a track record leading complex, multi‑stakeholder projects.
• Relevant education (engineering, planning, public policy, economics, building science, or related).
• Strategic communicator: adept at framing trade‑offs, clarifying decisions, and aligning technical, financial, and policy considerations.
• Advanced project leadership: budgeting, risk management, change control, multi‑vendor coordination, and executive‑level reporting.
• Deep familiarity with decarbonization/retrofit technologies, implementation barriers, incentive structures, and regulatory/policy levers, or capacity to learn and master content quickly.
• Analytical depth: comfort directing modeling/analysis, reviewing assumptions, and challenging results; fluency in Excel and comfort deploying AI tools to enhance throughput.
• Proven proposal leadership with measurable RFP wins in public‑sector/utility/private sector.

Why FRESCo

• Work from home with flexible hours, a supportive, mission‑driven team, and competitive salary & benefits.
• We welcome your ideas, initiative, and energy, and we’re an equal‑opportunity employer committed to an inclusive environment.
