London, United Kingdom GreenJobs Ltd Full time
Community Retrofit Director

We are working with a multi award winning social enterprise looking for an experienced and self-motivated person with experience of solar within the public sector, low carbon retrofit, asset management, and business development to join our London based growing team. You will be a core part of our mission to tackle climate change and move towards a more inclusive and sustainable future.

This will be a high-profile role within the executive team of a nationally significant social enterprise that is at the leading edge of urban community energy, with significant ambitions for scale and impact. You will work alongside the Executive Team with shared responsibility for setting and realising the organisation’s goals, strategic priorities, and business plan.

You will be responsible for leading the Community Retrofit team. The team currently encompasses seven staff working across domestic and non-domestic:

  1. Rooftop solar installations
  2. Communal heat networks
  3. Retrofit assessment and coordination
  4. Data collection and analysis
  5. Asset management

The right candidate will have a high level of technical due diligence, project management and business development experience, with a track record in leading successful teams. This is particularly important as Repowering London is in a growth phase and is expected to expand significantly in the coming years. You will be comfortable working collaboratively and managing a number of staff and external contractors, as well as building and maintaining relationships with key stakeholders.

As this role is at the most senior level of the organisation, it provides an opportunity to shape business development and long-term strategy. Experience of commercial service delivery will be key to creating a sustainable platform for Community Retrofit.

For this role, we will be looking for and assessing candidates on the following:

  1. Exceptional leadership skills to lead a growing team and manage a portfolio of projects
  2. Experience of asset deployment and maintenance in the construction, retrofit or renewable energy sectors
  3. Track record of developing and growing a commercial service or product
  4. Formal training in engineering, architecture or quantity surveying
  5. Experience of managing multi-partner projects, that may include academia, technical experts, contractors and local government
  6. Analytical skills to interpret data and financial models
  7. Excellent written and oral communications skills and confidence in presenting to a wide range of audiences
  8. Interest in community retrofit as a concept and strategy
  9. Capacity to self-reflect on performance, proactively problem-solve and welcome feedback on performance

The following are not essential for the role but would be good to have:

  1. Experience of publicly funded grant schemes or loan finance
  2. Experience of energy services and supply contracts
  3. Experience of customer journey development, using digital platforms
  4. Understanding of PAS2035 requirements
  5. Experience of building energy modelling, such as SAP or PHPP
  6. Accreditation as a retrofit coordinator or assessor
  7. Familiarity with Notion, MS Project or other collaborative project management tools
