Department Overview

The Clean Energy Transportation (CET) group is focused on accelerating the adoption of clean vehicles in California. CET leads a ~$0.5B portfolio of transportation electrification (TE) programs to increase the adoption of clean vehicles in California as we work to address one of the largest contributors to climate change – and we need a motivated, organized strategic thinker to help us determine how to expand this portfolio. We serve PG&E’s customers by deploying electric vehicle programs to increase access to charging infrastructure, reduce total cost of electric vehicle ownership, educating our customers and pursuing innovative R&D on the future of transportation electrification, focused on vehicle-grid-integration.

We focus on safety and quality, invest in our team’s success, solve problems, and strive to be better, work as an integrated team, and build trusted relationships. We collaborate and are intellectually curious. We are looking to collaborate with passionate, thoughtful people who want to make a real impact. Come join our team and help drive the transition to clean energy transportation.

Position Summary

The CET team is looking for a seasoned Program Manager to lead its Multifamily Housing and Small Business EV Charger Program which aims to provide Level 1 and Level 2 chargers at multifamily housing (MFH) units, not-for-profit organizations and small businesses, at no cost for sites located in a priority community. The program also includes an education campaign for site residents and employees to increase awareness about the charger installation and other EV benefits and incentives.

Specific areas of responsibility for this role will include:

• Create, develop, execute, and troubleshoot a variety of tasks necessary for managing the program, including but not limited to managing budgets, timelines, external partners, and key performance indicators.
• Responsible for driving best practices/efficiencies related to delivering on program goals.
• Lead and project manage the completion of internal and external reporting related to the program.
• Managing contracts to confirm goals are met and the program stays within budget.

In addition to program management, specific areas of regulatory compliance include reporting to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) or the California Air Resources Board (CARB.)

The successful candidate will have a strong background in program, product and/or project management with experience operating in a regulated environment under the jurisdiction of the CPUC or CARB, identifying and collaborating with key internal and external stakeholders to formulate ideas, develop well- reasoned solutions, and resolve issues will be essential to the position. The candidate will have excellent critical thinking, analytical, and communication skills while demonstrating knowledge of and attention to details.

Experience with transportation electrification, electric vehicles, EVSE installation and construction projects is highly recommended.

This position is hybrid, working from your remote office and your assigned work location based on business need. The assigned work location will be within the PG&E Service Territory and will be agreed upon by the successful candidate and hiring leader.

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity. Although we estimate the successful candidate hired into this role will be placed between the entry point and the middle of the range, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis related to these factors. This job is also eligible to participate in PG&E’s discretionary incentive compensation programs.
