The Colorado Energy Office (CEO) is seeking to hire a Program Manager – Emerging Markets (Geothermal), to be located in Denver, Colorado.

The Program Manager will provide critical programmatic support and shape key market development in the geothermal energy market and a variety of other cutting edge sectors for the Building Innovation & Energy Finance team at CEO. In 2022, the Colorado Legislature passed the HB22-1381, Colorado Energy Office Geothermal Energy Grant Program. This program will help unlock geothermal’s potential in Colorado and bridge the gap to a renewable-energy future. The Geothermal Energy Grant Program incentivizes the expansion of Colorado’s use of geothermal energy by providing grants to start programs supporting geothermal for electricity generation, space heating and cooling, water heating, and district heating. The $12 million program will support the development of geothermal heating and cooling as well as public-private partnerships on the development of geothermal electricity generation.

This position offers a unique opportunity for the successful candidate to make real and measurable change. This new position will help lead development and implementation of new initiatives, including the Geothermal Energy Grant Program, the first of its kind in Colorado. In developing this new program, the program manager will work with the BDFI team to research similar programs, manage stakeholder engagement, design program criteria, launch and administer the program, and track and report impacts and outcomes. Candidates for this position should demonstrate the ability to perform under a high degree of autonomy, think creatively and thoughtfully about new program development, and manage multiple program components from initial design through full implementation and reporting.
