• Support clients in capital planning by developing business cases, evaluating technologies, and preparing incentive applications.

• Automate and streamline audit / reporting processes through tools and templates, enhancing efficiency.
• Conduct technical evaluations for ECMs such as HVAC system upgrades, VFD applications, chiller / boiler replacements, and lighting conversions.
• Prepare comprehensive reports and presentations that communicate findings, cost savings, and GHG reduction opportunities.
• Provide support on compliance reporting, benchmarking, and disclosure regulations.
• Research emerging technologies and create client-facing tools for project feasibility analysis.
• Collaborate with internal staff and external stakeholders to ensure project success.
• Contribute thought-leadership content on sustainability for use in the commercial real estate and co-operative housing sectors.

Required Background

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering (or equivalent technical field).
• At least 3 years of relevant industry experience, ideally within an energy consulting environment.
• Demonstrated experience with ASHRAE Level II / III audits.
• Familiarity with energy modeling software (IES, eQuest, RETScreen, etc.).
• Strong Microsoft Excel skills, particularly with macros / VBA.
• Skilled technical writer with the ability to distill complex concepts for diverse audiences.
• Professional designations such as P.Eng, CEM, or CMVP are considered strong assets.
