ABOUT YOU

You’ve done (a lot of) this before. You’ve got the skills and experience to hit the ground running. You might not have covered everything in previous roles, but you’ll be able to learn quickly and apply it.

You’re a juggler. You’re used to multiple projects and can keep things moving. You know what questions to ask, and how to balance conflicting priorities to deliver successful outcomes.

You figure out what’s needed. You’re comfortable shifting through lots of information to get to the root of an issue, figuring out what to do, and you have the confidence to make it happen.

You’re a collaborator. We are big believers in the power of a team and work closely with stakeholders internally and externally to share experience and knowledge. This approach will fit you like a glove.

You enjoy working on smaller teams and are happy managing your own workload. Your flexibility and proactive nature mean that you’re comfortable and motivated to make decisions yourself, knowing how to draw in other team members to help get things done.

You’ve got an eye for improvement. You never stop trying to find better, more efficient ways of doing things.

You take your work, but not yourself, too seriously. You keep the mission at front of mind and know that the team’s success is your success. You know that work should be fun and that a good laugh is key to a productive day.

 

ABOUT THE BUILDING PERFORMANCE ASSOCIATION

At BPA we’re not all the same. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it’s the right thing to do, but because it makes our association stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for helping improve the lives of others, you will find a home at BPA.

At BPA we collaborate. Seriously.  Our team is made up of some pretty great individuals, but together we are absolutely amazing. If you value giving and receiving input, working toward (and celebrating) shared successes, being inclusive, giving the benefit of the doubt, and being responsible for each other- we should talk. 

At BPA we care about the whole you. Nowadays, there really isn’t such a thing as work/life balance. Work and life are irrevocably intertwined. We want you comfortable and that is why this is a remote position. We don’t worry about you being away from your desk over a doctor’s appointment, a child’s performance, or a needed mental health break. BPA has what we call the flexible workplace- this means that if you need to be away for a part of the day to tend to your life, we are happy to support you. 

BPA wants you to reach your potential. Your professional development and professional satisfaction are important to us. We want to support your growth not only through work experience, but through continuing education opportunities as well. We want you to be challenged and energized, we want you to have significant influence on the projects you take on. We want you to have career goals and while we hope it involves BPA for the long term, if you are pulled in another direction, having your growth supported while you are here will have been well worth it. 

BPA values a good fit. A sense of humor helps.  Having a can do and go with the flow attitude fits. We want you to be yourself- characters are most certainly welcome. We often spend more time with our colleagues than with our families and friends during a given week, therefore we see bringing in new team members as an awesome opportunity and responsibility. We value team oriented, friendly, approachable, spirited individuals with lots of integrity who are eager to get things done.

Home Energy Magazine began sharing critical insights into home performance in the mid-1980s, while Affordable Comfort, Inc. launched its first conference in 1986, pioneering the education and networking that built the movement. Today, the Association continues this legacy of advocacy, collaboration, and education to strengthen the home performance industry.
