We work with development and construction teams across the Northeast to deliver high-performance buildings that meet rigorous energy and sustainability standards. Our expertise spans ENERGY STAR Homes, LEED for Homes, Enterprise Green Communities, Passive House, HERS Ratings, state incentive programs, and energy code compliance.

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a Green Building Project Manager to join our growing team of building performance professionals. This role focuses on managing multifamily projects through the design and early construction phases—guiding clients and internal teams through certification programs, documentation workflows, energy modeling, and incentive requirements. The ideal candidate is technically grounded in green building practices and comfortable coordinating multiple moving pieces with confidence and clarity.

What You’ll Do

As a Project Manager at SCI, you’ll lead multifamily projects through the design and pre-construction phases, ensuring they stay on track to meet program, budget, and performance goals.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients during the design phase, managing communication, expectations, and deliverables
  • Lead charrettes, design meetings, and milestone check-ins with development and design teams
  • Review energy models, plans, and specifications for quality and alignment with program requirements
  • Manage documentation and compliance workflows for ENERGY STAR, Passive House, LEED for Homes, NYSERDA, and other green building programs
  • Coordinate internal resources and maintain project scope, schedules, and billing milestones using internal tracking tools
  • Oversee collection and submission of supporting documentation, including Res Check/Com Check, HVAC checklists, and incentive paperwork
  • Support internal improvements, including SOP updates and training/mentorship of junior team members
  • 1–2 years of project management experience, ideally in green building, energy efficiency, or high-performance construction
  • 1–2 years of experience with HERS Ratings or green building certification programs
  • Bachelor’s or Associate’s degree in construction management, architecture, building science, or a related field — or 5+ years of relevant experience in the building trades
  • Valid U.S. driver’s license with a clean driving record
  • Authorization to work in the United States
Nice to Have:
  • Experience with LEED, Passive House, NYSERDA, or Mass Save incentive programs
  • Familiarity with energy modeling, building envelope strategies, and energy code compliance
  • Credentials such as RESNET HERS Rater, LEED Green Rater, or PHIUS+ Verifier (or willingness to obtain)
  • Understanding of WIP tracking, QA workflows, or multifamily construction timelines
Primary Skills
  • Strong working knowledge of green building programs and performance pathways
  • Ability to interpret and coordinate construction documents, specifications, and energy modeling reports
  • Effective communication with clients, design teams, contractors, and internal technical staff
  • Strong organizational and time management skills
  • Detail-oriented with the ability to manage multiple priorities
  • Passion for sustainability, housing, and measurable building performance
