Job Description

We are looking for a talented individual to support the delivery of an innovative and equity-focused residential energy efficiency program for our client’s customers based in Central Oregon.

About the role 

Our income-qualified program delivers no-cost and low-cost energy efficiency upgrades, including insulation, air sealing, heating and cooling systems, duct work, and related health and safety repairs. We are adding a role to our Central Oregon team to lead outreach and connect eligible households with the program. 

The role starts with a focus on outreach: strengthening relationships with the agencies, organizations, and local institutions that serve income-qualified households, and turning those relationships into program referrals. You will develop and lead the outreach strategy for the region. As referral volume grows, you will take on in-home energy assessments, and over time the role settles at approximately 60% assessments and 40% outreach.

We are looking for someone with established ties to the community, a talent for building relationships, along with the technical aptitude to assess a home. 

What you'll do 

Outreach and referral development (the focus at the start; about 40% long term) 

• Develop and maintain working relationships with social service providers, housing providers, municipalities, schools, and other local organizations that serve income-qualified households 

• Develop and carry out the strategy for generating referrals in Central Oregon, and track results 

• Represent the program at community events, workshops, and partner meetings, including some evenings and weekends 

• Contribute to the marketing plan for the region 

• Reach underserved communities in the places where they already get information 

• Report outreach activity, referral sources, and results to program management 

Home energy assessments (added as referral volume grows; about 60% long term) 

• Conduct in-home energy assessments in occupied homes: building envelope, insulation, HVAC, and diagnostic testing 

• Document existing conditions and write Home Energy Assessment reports with recommended upgrades 

• Determine program eligibility and explain findings, scope, and next steps to homeowners in plain language 

• Hand each project off to the program team with complete, accurate documentation 

What we're looking for

Required 

• 3+ years in a community-facing or in-home role (outreach, partnership development, sales, home performance, weatherization, home inspection, construction, or similar), including demonstrated outreach or lead generation results you can describe 

• Strong written and verbal English. The Home Energy Assessment report will be a core deliverable of this role and must be clear and accurate 

• Ability to explain technical information to homeowners in plain language 

• Comfortable working in attics, crawlspaces, and unconditioned spaces 

• Valid driver's license, clean driving record, and reliable vehicle. Expect regular driving across Central Oregon 

• Ability to work independently in a field-based role 

• Must live in Central Oregon, in Crook, Deschutes, or Jefferson counties 

Strongly preferred 

• Existing relationships with Central Oregon agencies, nonprofits, or other organizations serving low-income households 

• Working knowledge of residential building systems, HVAC, and energy efficiency measures 

• BPI Building Analyst Technician certification (not required to apply; see below) 

• Spanish fluency 

• Experience with utility-funded, weatherization, or other income-qualified programs 

Certification and training 

BPI Building Analyst Technician certification is required before you begin conducting assessments. You do not need to hold it when you apply. If you don't, we cover the full cost of training and exam fees and schedule the training on paid work time. If your strength is outreach and your building science background is limited, we'll train you on the technical side. 

Compensation and logistics

Starting salary: $75,000 to $85,000. 

• Mileage reimbursed at $0.76 per mile 

• Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus a company-paid health care concierge service 

• 401(k) with company match 

• Paid vacation, sick, personal, and parental leave 

• Paid volunteer time 

• Employee recognition program and on-demand career training 

Where you'll work: This is a field position serving Central Oregon, with a home office for reporting and administrative work. 

Pre-employment: Employment is contingent on a background check and drug screening, including THC.
