Buildings Director - Washington DC, United States - Staffing Advisors
Description
Overview
Buildings Director
With the Inflation Reduction Act's landmark investment in clean energy, including tens of billions for energy efficiency, there are vast funding opportunities for new construction and retrofitting residential and commercial buildings—work that is critical not only to emissions reductions but also to energy and housing affordability, community health, and economic well-being. The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), a leading national research and advocacy organization, seeks a Buildings Director with experience working on buildings-related issues and the ability to identify new research and policy advocacy opportunities. We will look to you to set the program's strategic vision, present a compelling case for change to secure funding, and lead all research, policy, and technical assistance activities.
Reporting to the Senior Director for Research, you'll lead a team of 10, including overseeing a team launching the National Energy Codes Collaborative, and collaborate closely with other teams at ACEEE, especially the local policy program and the Appliance Standards Awareness Project. ACEEE's buildings program covers a variety of topics including building codes, retrofits, resilience, workforce, and building technologies, and works at the federal, state, and local levels. You'll direct research priorities for the program and oversee all projects, ensuring alignment with the goals in our Call to Action while tailoring initiatives to be attractive to funders. You will lead teams of experts in producing research reports, white papers, and other project deliverables (fact sheets, policy briefs, formal presentations, blog posts, op-eds, etc.).
In this highly visible role, you'll represent ACEEE externally through press interviews, webinars, etc., and collaborate with other organizations to develop policy positions and advocate for desired outcomes. You and your team will provide technical assistance to outside partners and policymakers on matters related to energy efficiency and decarbonization policy and research. You will also help develop ACEEE's Summer Study on Energy Efficiency in Buildings—a biennial conference held since 1980.
How You'll Make an Impact
You'll lead ACEEE's efforts to drive the building sector towards decarbonization by promoting energy efficiency as both a cost-effective and sustainable pathway to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Your work will further our bold vision to halve domestic energy use and associated greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
