Senior Project Manager

Following a number of major contract wins, we are looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead on the delivery and execution of some of our residential EV charging programs. Reporting directly to the Head of North America, you will work closely with our utility and CCA partners to scope, execute and grow residential EV charging programs that help EV drivers save money while delivering tangible grid and network benefits. In this cross-functional role, you will work with ev.energy’s front-end engineering team to build and test utility-branded mobile apps that allow EV drivers to seamlessly enroll and participate in the program, consult with our back-end engineering team to build the APIs and portals needed to connect to EVs and chargers and align them with renewable energy generation, and work with our customer support team to resolve bugs and ensure utilities and their EV customers are delighted with our service.

The ideal candidate will have experience delivering projects in either the EV charging or utility/power industries with a positive can-do attitude. A well-rounded generalist would be suited for the role, as it involves both creative and marketing aspects as well as highly quantitative data analysis and could even involve even a bit of engineering/coding work if this an area you're looking to grow into. Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who’s invested in growing our business and delivering superior performance for our clients, and are offering a generous amount of equity to match this.

• Provide day-to-day management of commercial projects, working across ev.energy’s team of front-end and back-end engineers, graphic designers, marketing consultants and data scientists to translate utility requirements into a clear scope of work, troubleshoot blocked items, ensure projects are on track to deliver, and provide utility counterparts with regular status updates
• Following project launch, collaborate with utility and ev.energy marketing and customer support teams to ensure program growth through continued customer enrollment and satisfaction to meet targets
• Proactively manage your utility accounts, serving as the day-to-day focal point for commercial projects with utility, retail and CCA clients and working to expand programs, report results, and ensure continued client satisfaction
• Analyze EV charging data, customer support tickets, app downloads, and other data sets as part of regular reporting requirements to the utility

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in energy, economics, engineering or business
• Minimum 1-2 years of experience in B2B/energy project management

If you don’t meet all of the requirements, please apply anyway! We would love to hear from all kinds of people and may be able to tailor the role around your abilities and experience. We value applicants from non-traditional backgrounds, and startup or tech experience is not a prerequisite.
