About Encore Renewable Energy
Encore Renewable Energy is a leading integrated clean energy services company headquartered in Burlington, Vermont, focused on developing, building, owning and operating sustainable, high return community-scale solar PV systems, large scale energy storage applications and 21st century solutions for the redevelopment of underutilized property.
Encore is a dynamic, high-growth, team-oriented, entrepreneurial company. We are a group of colleagues committed to the triple bottom line of people, planet, profit, and are willing to take on responsibilities outside of our comfort zone. We hope you are too!
Encore Renewable Energy is seeking a detail-oriented Project Accountant to join our Accounting team. This role will be responsible for the accounting and financial management of our community solar and energy storage portfolio, supporting projects from early development through long-term operations.
In this position, you will play a critical role in ensuring that project costs are recorded, classified, and capitalized accurately.
