Position Overview:
The energy efficiency professional who has both the technical aptitude and account management skills to enlist commercial companies in programs to reduce energy consumption will find fertile ground for their skills as a Program Consultant for CLEAResult in New Orleans, LA. Through your own technical sales efforts, you'll have the satisfaction of making a direct impact as customers agree to work with you on your programs to reduce energy consumption.

Your comfort level communicating effectively with multiple stakeholders, ranging from maintenance personnel to CEOs, will help to ensure your success as the primary CLEAResult interface with energy efficiency program participants.
To most effectively design strategies that will result in meeting targeted energy savings, getting a certification in energy management would enhance both your credibility and confidence.
