Workforce Developent Manager

Energy Smart Colorado is focused on improving housing affordability, increasing comfort and decreasing utility costs, particularly for working families and low-to-moderate income (LMI) residents across a 20-county region in western Colorado. To meet the goals of ESC’s grants, contracts and partnerships, a clean energy workforce must be enhanced across rural Colorado. The Workforce Development Manager is responsible for increasing the number of energy-focused skilled trades jobs by 20 to 30% in each Energy Smart community. These jobs may include recruiting potential Building Performance Institute (BPI) Building Analysts, enhancing HVAC expertise in installing cold climate heat pumps, as well as increasing the certifications of contractors focused on home weatherization, and other energy trades. While this is a remote work position, applicants must live in an Energy Smart community and be able to travel periodically for work within the Energy Smart territory.
