About the Role

The Company is in search of an Executive Director to guide its mission of accelerating an equitable clean energy transition. The successful candidate will inherit a well-established, respected research institution with a strong financial foundation and a reputation for credibility. This pivotal role requires a leader who is deeply committed to the clean energy transition, a strategic thinker capable of setting and executing a vision, and a skilled fundraiser with the ability to cultivate and grow a diverse funding base. The Executive Director will be responsible for the organization's strategic direction, financial sustainability, external partnerships, and staff leadership, and must be prepared to engage in fact-based conversations about the opportunities and trade-offs of the clean energy transition. The ideal candidate for the Executive Director position at the company will have a proven track record in fundraising, a strong understanding of the clean energy landscape, and the ability to communicate complex research effectively. They should be a collaborative, values-driven leader with experience in nonprofit operations and financial management. While deep technical expertise in clean energy is not required, genuine knowledge of the field and the ability to build and maintain regional relationships are essential. The role demands a leader who is strategic, visionary, and resilient, and who can lead the organization through a period of growth and evolution while remaining committed to the values of equity and inclusivity.
