Job description

As Scout's Strategic Construction Contracts Manager, you will play a key role in the contracting for the fastest-growing technologies in the power sector: utility-scale wind, solar, energy storage, and related construction services. Your ability to draw on your knowledge of a combination of the commercial, legal and related aspects of renewables will enable our team to make better informed decisions. You will help develop and execute negotiating strategies, lead Balance of Plant (BOP) and Balance of Systems (BOS) contracts and serve as Scout's contracting representative to our vendors and partners. 

This dynamic position will allow you to directly impact Scout's long-term ability to power the energy transition. You will gain exposure to a broad spectrum of work - across technologies and interacting with many teams within Scout. 

You will join Scout's Procurement team. This role will support the explosive growth in Scout's portfolio of projects in development and construction.

  • Lead contract negotiations for BOP/BOS. This includes exhibit management in conjunction with Scout subject matter experts.

  • Work with Legal and other Scout functions to develop and improve contract templates for key contracts. 
  • Support Construction, Operations and other Scout teams post contract signature, to ensure contracts are understood by the teams using them. 
  • Support "lessons learned" on Contracts, so that key learnings from Construction, Operations, and other teams are considered in future contracts. 
  • Develop options for Scout's negotiating position for construction services and drive the execution of the selected approaches. 
  • Offer intelligent recommendations to management on the best choices for Scout with respect to key terms and conditions and other contractual considerations. 
  • Support and actively propose Procurement and Contracts continuous improvement initiatives. 
  • Complete other duties as assigned. 
  • We will rely on you to develop systems and tools to drive efficiency in our work. To do so, we expect that you will integrate the expertise you have developed in previous roles while continuing to advance your knowledge of our industry and innovation in contracts. 

Requirements

You are a commercially minded professional who likes to work with a wide range of people and is passionate about the ways that renewable energy will make the world a better place. You have a good understanding of risk in contractual terms and are creative in the way you manage that risk in the context of competing priorities. 

Subject Matter Expertise 

  • A Bachelor's degree. (Degree in legal, business, or related fields are a plus.) 
  • 5+ years of BOP/BOS contract or related experience, preferably with utility-scale wind, solar, and/or battery storage.

  • Technical aptitude: ability to understand technical and quantitative issues. 
  • Previous experience conducting complex contract negotiations, including contractual analysis; previous deal leadership is a plus. 
  • Ability to concisely frame issues by providing context, analysis, recommendations, and risk/benefit trade offs, both in written, verbal, and presentation format. 
  • Highly proficient in Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint. 

Working Style 

  • Independent learner who can quickly apply lessons learned in one area to all other work areas. 
  • Strong organizational skills with process orientation and attention to detail. 
  • Ability to prioritize and deliver top-quality work product in multiple areas without direct supervision. 
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the desire to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment and to meet deadlines and complete time-sensitive duties.
