Job description

About Us
 
Solar Landscape is the leading commercial rooftop solar developer in the U.S. Only 4% of commercial rooftops host solar today - we're changing that, fast. Commercial rooftop solar is the fastest, smartest way to build new clean power - delivering megawatts of generation in months, not years, and powering America's energy and future right where it's needed most. By turning rooftops into local power plants, we're reshaping how - and how fast - energy gets built in the U.S.
 
Recognized as the #1 Distributed Generation Developer by New Project Media, the #1 National Commercial Rooftop Solar Developer by Solar Power World, and winner of the U.S. Department of Energy's Grand Prize for Clean Energy, Solar Landscape is defining the future of energy generation in America.
 
Headquartered in Asbury Park, New Jersey, Solar Landscape has offices in Chicago, Baltimore, and New York City and operates in over a dozen states nationwide.
 
We move fast, solve hard problems, and take our work seriously - but never ourselves. We value clear thinking, accountability, and execution. At the same time, we're collaborative by default, and believe the best work happens when people enjoy working together. Our team is made up of smart, grounded people who show up for each other - whether that's troubleshooting a system design or catching up over lunch.
 
If you're looking to do meaningful work in a high-performance environment - and be part of the team reshaping how energy gets built in the U.S. - we'd love to meet you.
 
About The Role

We're seeking a detail-oriented and proactive Project Management Analyst to join our team and support the successful delivery of commercial solar projects. In this role, you'll work closely with our Preconstruction, Operations, and Project Management teams to assist with scheduling, documentation, permitting, and overall project coordination - helping ensure every project stays on time, on budget, and aligned with company goals.

Responsibilities
  • Manage project administration, including company licenses, CRM data entry and maintenance, RFI and submittal processing, and coordination of project certificates of insurance.
  • Oversee solar incentive applications and closeouts; act as the primary point of contact for all internal and external parties regarding incentive processes.
  • Assist the Director of Interconnection with the submission and closeout of interconnection applications and agreements.
  • Support the Preconstruction Manager with planning and zoning board applications, as well as permitting processes.
  • Assist Project Managers with construction permit submissions; coordinate with the design team to collect engineering deliverables and serve as a liaison for all internal and external permitting communications.
  • Support Project Managers and Engineers in preparing purchase orders and subcontracts.
  • Assist the Director of Procurement with material and inventory management, and review outstanding purchases in relation to the project schedule.
  • Manage subcontractor documentation, support RFI and submittal distribution, and assist with project closeout activities.
  • Perform other duties as assigned, based on evolving project needs.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Renewable Energy, or a related field (or equivalent work experience).
  • Familiarity with permitting processes.
  • Experience supporting multiple project stakeholders across engineering, procurement, and construction functions.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage competing deadlines and priorities.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for cross-functional collaboration.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; experience with project management tools a plus.
  • Strong attention to detail and follow-through in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
$50,000 - $70,000 a year

Salary will vary depending on your location and job-related skills and experience. This is an incentive-based position with the potential to earn more. For part-time roles, your compensation will be adjusted to reflect your hours.

Benefits and Perks
 
We offer competitive compensation and benefits designed to support you inside and outside of work:
 
       Training / Professional development opportunities
       401(k) with 4% company match
       Summer Fridays
       Flexible remote/hybrid work options
