Job description

JOB DESCRIPTION

Notes from Manager: \" I think of computer literacy and experience using Microsoft tools are table stakes for this kind of work. I am not sure if I put it as a requirement but it is 100% a must have. We especially use Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel, Teams, SharePoint, Planner, Tasks, etc. We also use some Adobe tools on a more limited basis. Most people with any background in this work will already be familiar with those. Another issue I've run into is sometimes folks who work in communications think that it means they don't need to understand basic numbers or reporting, but we do have to sometimes write about numbers in terms of energy savings, rebate amounts and related program benefits. Another nice to have is familiarity with marketing communications reporting in a basic understanding of the success metrics for various tactics accross communications channels. Most with any background in the field would be familiar.
