About Greenline Insights

Greenline Insights is a non-partisan, analytically driven research firm empowering smart decision-making in climate, energy, and public policy. We specialize in modeling, analysis, and policy design to help local workforces, businesses, and communities thrive. Our interdisciplinary work spans economics, energy, public health, infrastructure, food systems, and innovation — and is rooted in clarity, rigor, and action. We pride ourselves on translating complex research into policy-relevant insights that drive real-world impact, from detailed reports and testimony to stakeholder engagement and modeling tools.

We value proactivity, transparency, curiosity, and mission-driven care. Just as important, we value clarity and structure — we believe well-designed systems and organized workflows are a foundation for impactful work. We look for teammates who share these values, bring passion and collaboration, and want to help build systems that make real progress possible.

Role Summary

We are hiring for a flexible role that may be titled Manager or Director, depending on the candidate’s experience, leadership strengths, and the scope they are best suited to lead.

This person will guide project execution, support or lead client communication, contribute to analytical work, and help build internal systems and methods. More senior candidates will take on broader ownership of projects, client relationships, and strategic direction. This role is ideal for someone with strong analytical depth, excellent communication skills, and a structured, collaborative approach to problem-solving.

  • Translate complex analytical findings into clear, concise insights

  • Participate in or lead client meetings and provide structured updates

  • Delegate work effectively and provide actionable, growth-oriented feedback

  • Support development of internal documentation, templates, and repeatable processes

  • Depending on seniority, help shape project scopes, proposals, or strategic direction, and manage 1+ direct reports.

What We’re Looking For

We welcome candidates with a range of experience. Greenline matches title and responsibilities to demonstrated capabilities, not just years of experience. During the hiring process, we assess analytical depth, client leadership, communication strength, and ability to manage complex projects and portfolios of work. Candidates may be considered for Manager, Senior Manager, or Director levels depending on fit.

Must-Have Qualities

  • 5 to 7 years of professional experience in climate policy, clean energy, economics, energy modeling, research consulting, or related fields. Advanced degrees (Master’s or PhD) may substitute for a limited number of years of experience, depending on relevance to the role.

  • Ability to perform complex analytical work and communicate findings clearly

  • Experience managing workflows or contributing to multi-step research or modeling projects

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

  • Comfort working in a nimble, collaborative, high-standards environment

  • Familiarity with economic or energy modeling tools (e.g., IMPLAN, REMI, EPS, NEMS, ReEDS, LEAP, PLEXOS, Aurora, MARKAL/TIMES, GCAM, etc.)

Additional Qualifications for Director-Level Consideration

Director-level team members own full client relationships, lead strategic engagements, and help shape organizational growth. They are expected to play a greater role in revenue generation, visibility, and long-term direction.

  • 8 to 12 years of professional experience in climate policy, clean energy, economics, energy modeling, research consulting, or related fields

  • Experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder projects from concept to completion

  • Strong client-facing skills and ability to serve as a trusted advisor
