Tax Manager – Renewable Energy (Solar + Storage)

Tax Manager – Renewable Energy (Solar + Storage)

A growth-stage IPP is hiring a Tax Manager to lead its tax function across a national portfolio of solar and storage projects. The business develops, owns, and finances distributed generation and community solar assets, with exposure to emerging U.S. markets.

This is a commercially embedded role — not a pure compliance position. You’ll work alongside project finance, legal, development, and accounting teams on structuring, tax credit strategy, and execution.

Responsibilities

• Oversee tax compliance via external advisors (federal, state, partnership, S&U, property tax)
• Review filings and ensure accuracy, completeness, and timeliness
• Lead tax input on project structuring, including ITC monetization and tax equity
• Support Section 48 / 48E credit strategy (PWA, FEOC, basis, eligibility)
• Manage ITC insurance processes, diligence, and documentation
• Partner with development and finance teams across the project lifecycle
• Contribute to corporate tax planning and cross-border matters (incl. Canada)
• Monitor regulatory changes impacting renewable energy tax

Requirements

• 4–8 years’ experience in tax (public accounting background preferred)
• Direct experience in renewable energy / solar required
• Working knowledge of Section 48 / 48E credits, PWA, FEOC, and credit monetization
• Experience with partnership taxation and multi‑state tax considerations
• CPA or Master’s in Tax preferred

This role suits someone who wants to move beyond compliance into deal‑facing tax work within a project‑driven environment.
