Position Summary
CleanCapital owns and operates a growing portfolio of distributed generation (DG) solar and battery storage assets — approximately 400 sites at ~500MW today, scaling toward 1.5GW over the next two to three years. We are hiring a Director of Commercial Asset Management to build and lead this function from the ground up: today, commercial asset management sits without a dedicated senior owner, managed across other verticals on an ad hoc basis. The Director will hold commercial P&L accountability for the portfolio — owning revenue performance, budgeting, and variance management — while managing the counterparty relationships, contracts, and compliance obligations that drive portfolio performance, working closely with Technical Asset Management, Accounting, and Treasury/Finance to keep the portfolio on plan. We are looking for an AI-curious, forward-thinking candidate who actively integrates AI tools into their daily professional routine.
