    • Understanding of utility-offered products or services

    • Familiarity with data analytics, data QA/QC practices, and developing concise and accurate reports

    • Focus on being able to see things through customer's eyes to improve customer experience and satisfaction

    • Experience working with commercial contractors

    • Familiarity with the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) or ASHRAE Efficiency Standards

    • Experience with COMcheck, eQuest, Trane TRACE, or Carrier HAP

    • Experience with Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software

    • Experience in the development and implementation of standards, procedures and guidelines for a process-oriented position.

    • Excellent English oral and written communication skills.
