Strategy-Prin Business Program Manager Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE)

PRIMARY PURPOSE OF POSITION

BGE's Strategy team is looking for a dynamic, innovative, collaborative technical leader or engineer, who is a creative-thinker and impact-player seeking to develop new programs and projects that will transform BGE through Maryland's clean energy transformation and deliver world-class customer experiences. Projects will focus on clean energy and smart grid solutions such as distributed energy resources (DERs), battery storage, grid resiliency and modernization, electric vehicles, hydrogen, network geothermal and generally aim to promote decarbonization and equitable community planning.

This role will work with a variety of stakeholders to curate, scope and lead cross-functional, compelling projects that are both transformational to our business and beneficial to our communities which may be submitted for funding opportunities, in partnership with BGE internal teams, our customers, and external partners. This role will serve as the technical lead for developing projects and will draw on his/her technical experiences to vet opportunities, lead cross-functional teams and SMEs to build compelling project scopes tied to desired grid and customer outcomes, and support funding applications and/or partner-led projects. This role will develop and manage internal and external stakeholder relationships, build greater partner engagement, contribute technical scope to funding proposals, as well as be responsible for cross company reporting functions that may include written updates and presentations.

The successful candidate will have experience in the energy industry, a working knowledge of technical aspects of how the electric grid works (i.e., distribution, transmission, smart grid automation, etc.) as well as bring ideas of how it will evolve through the clean energy transformation. The candidate should also be a self-starter, comfortable with big-picture ideas and vision, but balanced by very strong execution capabilities, including attention to detail, collaboration skills, strategies to motivate and guide project teams, strong communication skills (written and oral). Additionally, this role will be a high-impact, high-visibility role in terms of being part of BGE's Strategic Planning team, working with senior leaders in BGE and across the Exelon family of companies. This position may be required to work extended hours for coverage during storms or other energy delivery emergencies.
