He/she will be accountable for maintaining reporting structure and timelines, soliciting responses from project or team leaders and reporting non-conformance to management. The ideal candidate will be experienced in managing people and get the opportunity to build out a program management function.

Key to success in this position is comfort in creation mode. This role is joining an evolving team as it moves into its permanent structure within the organization. A focus on the ability to build from scratch and iterate as improvements are realized is paramount. Residential solar, specifically TPO experience is a bonus but not required. Although a general familiarity with EPC construction is a must.
