CT Decarbonization Advisor
Hybrid position, ideally for people living in CT
Want to make a real difference in the world—and enjoy doing it? At Abode Energy Management (Abode), we care deeply about the work we do and the impact it has on our planet’s future. We’re a fast-growing energy efficiency program implementer in the Northeast, leading the way in electrification and heat pump adoption. Our team is fun, kind, passionate, and progressive—and we offer a competitive benefits package to match. That includes Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, and Disability Insurance, a matching 401(k), and fully paid Parental Leave. We also believe you should be able to balance your work and personal life, so we offer generous paid time off (more than 30 days a year!) and reasonable flexibility in when and where you work. If you’re looking for meaningful work, caring coworkers, and a great company culture, come join us.
Reporting to the Program Manager and working closely with experienced members of Abode’s Residential and Commercial Decarbonization team, this position will include some or all of the following responsibilities:
The Advisor will help homeowners understand the capabilities and limitations of heat pump technology based on their home’s attributes and their goals for the systems. Consultations may range from helping people understand the basic pros and cons of systems to helping them better understand sizing, design, and installation considerations to maximize their benefits. The Advisor will utilize Abode’s proprietary quote review tool to consult virtually with residential customers to compare and evaluate equipment options for adopting heat pumps. This position focuses primarily on Residential customers and may support future Commercial initiatives as necessary.
The Advisor will meet (typically not more than once or twice a week) either virtually or in the field with companies involved in manufacturing, distributing, and installing heat pumps, both to provide them with information about related programs and incentives, as well as to learn more about industry needs.
The Advisor will partner with the rest of the team to provide ongoing support to both contractors and customers, with tasks including managing a shared inbox/phone line for contractor inquiries, responding to and helping to resolve customer and contractor issues, and conducting regular reviews of contractor certifications and following up as needed to obtain renewed documents.
The Advisor will work collaboratively with internal and external partners to develop new program tools, as well as deliver on the creation and/or improvement of resources to meet evolving program needs and technology updates.
The Advisor will stay current with evolving standards for the recommended design and installation of heat pumps, providing fact-based, useful advice to homeowners and contractors.
Abode is evolving multi-faceted programs for state agencies and utilities utilizing a comprehensive blend of education, technical assistance, and financial incentives to accelerate the adoption of electrification and decarbonization solutions. The Advisor role will evolve over time to encompass new or changing responsibilities as these programs mature.
Strong candidates for this position will bring most, if not all, of the following skills and experience:
This is a full-time, exempt position with a starting salary plus bonus targeted between $70K and $80K, depending on relevant skills and experience. The Advisor will work primarily out of the employee’s home office along with attendance at in-person events and meetings as needed both across Connecticut and in Abode’s Concord MA office. Abode offers its employees a competitive benefits package, including Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and Disability Insurance, a matching 401k, and fully paid Parental Leave. Employees have a flexible working schedule and generous paid time off (~30 paid days off).
