SunRun supports and creates local green jobs, and the proof is in the pudding.
We’re growing and hiring for a variety of skill sets in bi-coastal offices. We currently have a number of positions open in our San Francisco office, where I work, including two positions on the marketing team – an entry level Marketing intern position and a management level Retail Marketing position. SunRun is also looking for innovators to join our growing team of engineers, in QA and web app positions. Tell your network that these positions are open – and that SunRun is a great place to work!
But, even outside of SunRun headquarters, SunRun’s creating a ripple effect on local, green jobs. Our solar power service offering supports 25 local solar installers in markets across the United States – from Hawaii to Massachusetts. These local installers are able to reach more homeowners and install more home solar systems because SunRun removes traditional barriers, such as price and hassle. More solar homes mean more cleantech jobs. Did you know that when 6 homes go solar, 1 national green job is created?
Through our 25 local solar installation partners, over 2,500 jobs have been created, ranging from engineers, to sales professionals, to installation specialists, and more. Not only are these additional jobs, but they are sustainable and safe, especially compared to the risks associated with coal mining or working at an offshore oil rig. As more homeowners choose SunRun’s affordable solar power service, more people in those communities will be needed to fill jobs to support these solar installations.
SunRun’s unique model empowers trusted local installation partners and develops new jobs in the communities where our customers live. Support the creation of green jobs in your community by going solar today… Or apply for one of these green jobs at SunRun or our partners offices and be part of developing a cleaner energy solution close to home.
