    Description

    Solar Support Administrator

    We’re hiring for an individual passionate about creating social and environmental change. Someone who is inspired by clean energy solutions, committed to sustainability, has a strong work ethic, and enjoys building relationships with all types of people.

    What You'll Learn & Build:

    In this role, you'll develop valuable professional skills that translate across industries:

    • Consultative communication: Learn to listen deeply, ask thoughtful questions, and understand what matters most to each customer—whether that's environmental impact, energy independence, or financial savings
    • Educational outreach: Become skilled at translating complex technical information into clear, accessible explanations that empower informed decision-making
    • Customer relationship management: Build trust by guiding homeowners through their solar journey with patience, transparency, and genuine care for their best interests
    • Customer data systems expertise: Gain hands-on experience with managing a customer database, pipeline management, and data accuracy protocols
    • Stakeholder communication: Hone your ability to connect with diverse audiences via phone, text, email, and in-person interactions
    • Values-driven problem-solving: Develop the ability to match solutions to individual needs rather than applying one-size-fits-all approaches

    What You'll Do:

    • Respond promptly via phone and email to homeowners interested in going solar, serving as their first point of contact and trusted guide
    • Listen carefully to understand each customer's unique goals, concerns, and values
    • Provide clear, honest information about solar options so homeowners can make the best decision for their situation
    • Schedule site visits and walk customers through our evaluation process with attention to accuracy, while building rapport
    • Manage customer data entry and system specifications with precision and attention to detail
    • Build authentic relationships with homeowners, helping them explore whether solar aligns with their needs
    • Maintain detailed records of all customer communications in our database
    • Provide general administrative support to the TFS team

    What We're Looking For:

    • Strong listening skills and genuine curiosity about what matters to people
    • Ability to explain technical concepts clearly without jargon or pressure
    • Excellent organizational abilities and meticulous attention to detail
    • Creative problem-solver who can juggle multiple priorities and adapt to individual customer needs
    • Interest in solar, clean energy, and environmental sustainability
    • Capacity to work 38-40 hrs in the general 8 am to 5 pm range, Monday through Friday
    • Professional, patient, and empathetic communication style
    • Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively in an open office environment
    • Alignment with our mission: we succeed when customers make the right choice for them, not when we make a sale

    Benefits

    Our benefits include:

    • Living wage base pay, and annual profit sharing options
    • Support for your well-being through paid time off, health insurance, and occasional flex time.
    • Employee Solar Program
