Since you will be coordinating across a complex array of stakeholders to bring common themes together and managing multiple utility relationships simultaneously, previous client-facing work experience is required and previous knowledge of the TVA organization is a plus. 
• Be an effective communicator and storyteller: Analyze and present key results, facilitate meetings, and deliver nuanced technical and data driven messages to clients. Maintain consistent and frequent communication with an array of stakeholders including clients and device partners to ensure efficient program implementation, review ongoing needs, and provide timely solutions and recommendations to help achieve program success.
