ABOUT COAST Coast is a rapidly growing commercial and industrial ("C&I") solar energy firm. By offering innovative systems which provide dependable solar energy to commercial businesses, Coast is disrupting the way commercial building owners purchase electricity. Through the backing of its financial sponsor, Crosstimbers Capital Group, Coast expects to finance, develop, own, and operate $400+ million of commercial solar projects across the United States over the next several years. Coast owns the solar systems installed on the roofs of commercial buildings and sells solar electricity to building owners at a rate that is typically less than their current electricity provider. We are looking for talented, results-oriented, self-starters who will consistently deliver exceptional results to our customers and investors in pursuit of becoming the leading C&I solar provider in the United States.

COAST'S BELIEFS ABOUT PEOPLE

We believe people should feel appreciated and part of a broader—mission-based organization—where their experience and talents are nurtured, and their full potential is realized.  Coast seeks to cultivate a culture that enables talented individuals to thrive by autonomously utilizing their unique abilities and extraordinary work ethic within a highly collaborative environment that fosters innovation, creativity, and teamwork. We view it as one of our greatest responsibilities to enable, lead, and help individuals grow into the best versions of themselves. Our team shares a common vision of becoming the best version of ourselves and building the best company we can create, while transitioning our country to clean, renewable energy.

EXPECTED OUTCOMES AND REQUIREMENTS

The Vice President of Asset Management will lead Coast Energy's strategy and execution for managing a growing portfolio of commercial solar and battery storage assets. This senior leadership role is responsible for optimizing performance, reducing operating costs, and delivering best-in-class service to our commercial real estate clients. The VP will oversee all asset operations, manage vendor relationships, implement innovative tools and processes, and collaborate cross-functionally to ensure long-term success and scalability of Coast's energy assets. Responsibilities include:

Lead the financial and operational performance of Coast Energy's portfolio of solar and battery storage assets, ensuring systems meet or exceed financial targets

Build and manage a high-performing asset management team focused on accountability, data-driven decision-making, and continuous improvement
Oversee and continuously improve all aspects of asset operations, including budget management, performance analytics, vendor oversight, and reporting

Provide white-glove stakeholder reporting and relationship management, especially with commercial real estate (CRE) offtakers
Work cross-functionally with development, engineering, and finance teams to ensure alignment on system design and long-term performance strategies
Identify and implement innovative tools, technologies, and partnerships to scale the asset management function without significantly increasing headcount
Maintain an up-to-date understanding of industry trends, regulatory changes, and emerging technologies to keep Coast ahead of the curve
Travel (~25%) to visit operating assets, meet with partners, and attend industry conferences as needed


QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE

7–10 years of experience in asset management, with a strong track record in the commercial and industrial (C&I), distributed generation (DG), or behind-the-meter (BTM) energy space
Proven leadership experience managing teams and collaborating cross-functionally across engineering, development, and finance
Deep understanding of solar PV systems, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and distributed energy technologies (e.g., EV charging, microgrids)
Strong financial acumen, including experience with asset-level budgeting, forecasting, and performance modeling
Expertise in vendor management and contract negotiation with third-party O&M providers and software platforms
Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, including client-facing reporting and relationship building with CRE owners
Demonstrated ability to scale processes and systems using tools, data analytics, and innovative operational strategies
