Position Overview

The Incentives Pursuit Coordinator is a full-time, remote role supporting the pursuit of infrastructure-scale funding opportunities. This position plays a key role in identifying, developing, and submitting competitive applications for grants, rebates, voucher programs, and other incentive mechanisms at the federal, state, local, and utility levels.

The Incentives Pursuit Coordinator will collaborate closely with development teams, accounting/finance, and various internal/external stakeholders to ensure applications are aligned with eligibility requirements, project scope, procurement timelines, design and permitting milestones, and construction schedules. The role includes creating internal compliance documentation and providing updates through contracting in support of award contract negotiations.

This is a highly detail-oriented role requiring experience in grant writing and compliance for construction and capital project environments (not foundation or nonprofit funding). The ideal candidate operates both independently and collaboratively across the full pre-award lifecycle—from opportunity identification through grant award contracting—and is comfortable managing all pre-award activities, monitoring funding award statuses, and creating audit-ready documentation for handoff to the post-award project coordinator upon award.

Key Responsibilities

Application Development & Pursuit

• Identify, research, track, and evaluate relevant funding opportunities (federal, state, local, and utility), including grants, rebates, vouchers, and tax incentives.
• Lead development of complete funding applications for large-scale EV infrastructure and development projects, including Hubs, Depots, Workplace Charging, On-demand Charging, Equipment, Capital Improvements, Energy, and more.
• Develop all application components: narrative sections, budget documentation and justifications, required attachments, forms, and final submission via funder portals or email.
• Collaborate with internal development teams to align applications with project scope, budget, procurement strategy, design, permitting, and construction schedule.
• Identify gaps in application materials and proactively source solutions.

Pre-Award Compliance & Documentation

• Develop internal compliance documents during application development; update at contracting stage for handoff to the post-award Project Coordinator.
• Ensure all applications address funder requirements and eligibility rules for construction and infrastructure-focused incentives.
• Support pre-award contracting processes, including review of terms, conditions, and funding obligations.
• Maintain audit-ready records and update application trackers and documentation folders for all pre-award pursuits.

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Coordinate inputs from engineering, construction, operations, procurement, design, accounting, sustainability, leadership, and other internal/external stakeholders to ensure application accuracy and competitiveness.
• Align application budgets with internal cost tracking and funder expectations through cross-departmental coordination.
• Support preparation of materials for leadership reviews and external funder discussions during application and contracting stages.

Tracking & Reporting

• Maintain centralized trackers of application deadlines, submissions, and outcomes.
• Provide regular internal updates to leadership on pursuit pipeline, application status, and upcoming funding opportunities.
• Track pre-award risks, milestones, and required approvals to ensure applications remain competitive and compliant.

Required Qualifications

• 3–5+ years of experience preparing incentive or grant applications for infrastructure, construction, capital projects, EV charging, or sustainability upgrades.
• Demonstrated success preparing applications for federal, state, local, or utility-based programs (experience limited to nonprofit/foundation grants will not meet requirements).
• Strong understanding of procurement, permitting, design, and construction schedules as they relate to funded projects.
• Experience with compliance frameworks for incentive-funded projects, including documentation and audit-readiness.
• Familiarity with reimbursement-based funding programs (grants, rebates, vouchers, credits).
• Experience with competitive solicitations and/or utility rebate programs.
• Strong written communication, analytical, and budgeting skills with ability to manage multiple applications simultaneously.
• Excellent attention to detail and ability to manage documentation across multiple systems and formats.
• Demonstrated ability to meet deadlines, communicate risks, and maintain organized records across multiple concurrent projects.
• Proficiency with Microsoft 365 (Excel/Google Sheets), Box, Smartsheet, and document management tools.
• Professional presence, strong communication skills, and a highly proactive, resourceful, and adaptable work style.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with EV charging deployments, commercial building energy upgrades, pilot projects, and reimbursement-based programs.
• Background in public-private infrastructure projects.
• Prior client-facing consulting experience.

Benefits

• Employer-paid health plan
• PTO, paid sick leave, and full benefits package
