Job Description
Energy Reporting — Program Manager (Contingent Worker)
 
Job Summary:
Client's Energy and Sustainability organization drives the company's clean energy strategy and the reporting that underpins Client's Net Zero commitments. The Clean and Renewable Energy (CaRE) team is hiring a Program Manager on a contingent, limited-term basis. During this period, this role serves as the day-to-day owner and coordinator for Client's energy activity data — the Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 energy datasets that feed the company's greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory, emissions forecasting, and voluntary and regulatory disclosures. This is a hands-on, data-centric role: it requires 3-5 years of experience managing multiple concurrent workstreams in a fast-paced, matrixed environment, direct experience working with large datasets and running or QC'ing analytics, and the ability to communicate data status and insights to technical and non-technical audiences. This individual must have familiarity with corporate GHG accounting and be comfortable with query tools and data QA/validation workflows. This is a full-time, limited-term position.
 
Primary Responsibilities:

• Serve as the day-to-day owner for Client's energy activity data across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 electricity (e.g., FERA, construction energy, network-related electricity, and operational electricity, diesel, natural gas, etc ), from data collection and QA/QC through to the reporting handoff to the Net Zero team
• Perform analyses on Client’s Environmental Attribute Certificate (EAC) portfolio and support the development of internal systems to advance portfolio management and modeling.
• Run and maintain the recurring data collection, QA/QC, and validation cadence (e.g, quarterly data pulls, follow-ups, YoY analysis) and keeping reporting and analysis on schedule
• Perform and QC data pulls from Client's energy data systems, investigate anomalies and data-pipeline issues, and reconcile discrepancies
• Coordinate data and process flows across cross-functional partners to maintain accurate and complete inputs from source through to reporting
• Support the emissions forecasting cadence as the energy-data point of contact for the Net Zero team, providing and QA'ing the activity data behind regulatory and internal cross-functional forecasts
• Develop and maintain program-management artifacts — trackers, roadmaps, status reports, and executive-ready updates — for recurring leadership and cross-functional forums
• Support a quarterly reporting cadence (execution updates, exec meeting prep, deck and dashboard creation) using established templates and inputs
• Support external assurance and audit activities (e.g., methodology walkthroughs with Client’s assurance provider) and preparing and validating data and documentation as requested
• Triage and respond to incoming energy-data and analytical requests; track progress against internal KPIs and stakeholder expectations
• Maintain and improve reporting documentation — the what, when, where, how, and why of energy data collection, including team-specific nuances and process flows

 
 
Must-Have Skills:

1. Familiarity with corporate GHG emissions accounting concepts (Scope 1, 2, and 3) and the activity data that underpins an emissions inventory
2. Direct, hands-on experience working with large datasets in excel/google sheets — collecting, QA/QC'ing, reconciling, and analyzing data from multiple sources
3. High-level proficiency in Google Sheets/Excel — advanced formulas, pivot tables, and charts — plus slide/deck creation

 
Nice-to-have Skills:

1. Experience with a scripting/query language (e.g., SQL, Python) sufficient to run, automate, or QA data pulls from large data warehouses (e.g., Hive/Presto or equivalent)
2. Familiarity with energy/utility data (electricity, natural gas, diesel, and other fuels) and metering/billing data structures
3. Familiarity with external reporting standards and platforms such as GHGP, CDP, ISSB, GRI, TCFD, SASB, CSRD, etc.

 
Years of Experience: 3-5 years of experience in program management, data operations, or analytics coordination, ideally supporting technical or data-oriented teams
