THE POSITION
The Clean Energy Programs Manager (CEPM) is a newly created role, reporting directly to the CEO and closely collaborating with CFE's leadership team. CFE's Strategic Plan calls for us to build and rapidly expand multi-sector clean energy lending, with a focus on benefiting communities of color, to ensure equitable environmental and health benefits. As such, the CEPM will be responsible for leading our clean energy initiatives, including but not limited to spearheading CFE's implementation of initiatives related to the EPA's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. This role presents an exciting opportunity to contribute significantly to achieving our organization's goals during the strategic plan period and beyond.
In particular, the CEPM will lead the design and development of financial products and technical assistance aimed at accelerating the adoption of clean energy technologies within small business, non-profit organizations, and low-to-moderate income communities; facilitate the financing of clean energy projects for our clients and expand CFE's market penetration in the sector in alignment with the Justice40 Initiative; and coordinate CFE's participation in EPA's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund initiatives, including managing existing partnerships and developing new collaboration opportunities.
The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of clean energy technologies, emerging public policy impacting the sector both at the local and federal level. They are an experienced professional who prefers to work in a dynamic collaborative environment, has strong financial analysis and writing skills, and seeks to play a pivotal role in a fast-growing financial organization.
