Job Description

Every day, we work together for what matters - bold, swift, and equitable climate action.

As a Senior Consultant on the Power Markets team, you will help accelerate 3Degrees' expansion into the $55B transferable tax credit (TTC) market. Our Power Markets team has a strong reputation of delivering expert renewable energy strategy and implementation services, including advising clients on large, complex transactions such as power purchase agreements (PPAs) and biomethane purchase agreements (BPAs). This position will play an essential role in expanding 3Degrees' TTC advisory services for corporate clients, which help finance utility-scale clean energy projects.

You will provide subject matter expertise on the various aspects of TTC transactions, combining your tax and accounting experience with the team's deep knowledge of renewable energy projects and energy markets in order to advise clients on the successful execution of tax credit deals. This is a high-impact role requiring a unique blend of tax accounting fluency and a client-facing consulting skillset. You will help move potential advisory engagements from initial sales conversations to close (in conjunction with account executives on the Global Business Solutions (GBS) team) and then execute on those consulting engagements alongside Power Markets team members, all the while providing the technical credibility needed to satisfy corporate tax departments and their external advisors.

This is a full time, exempt role reporting to the Associate Director, Power Markets. We value camaraderie, team collaboration, and the benefits of in-person connection, while offering flexibility. For this role, we prefer candidates to join us in a voluntary, flexible hybrid work style in one of our office hubs in San Francisco, CA; Portland, ME; or New York, NY.

For exceptional remote candidates, we strongly prefer those located in states where we are currently eligible to hire: CA, OR, NY, WA, ME, TX, CO, MI, FL, MA, MN, VA, DC, GA, UT, and IL. While we prioritize candidates in, or open to relocating to, these states, we may consider outstanding remote candidates from other US states. Please note that hiring in a new state would involve evaluating the implications of establishing a new hiring presence there. Additionally, 3Degrees does not provide relocation assistance for this position.

What You'll Do

• TTC advisory service build-out: Assist the Associate Director in building-out 3Degrees' TTC offering, expanding the service line with the full support of the Power Markets and Global Business Solutions (GBS) teams.
• Business development: Partner with account executives on the GBS team to pitch TTC solutions to corporate clients. You must be able to translate tax concepts into a compelling business case for C-suite and tax executives while also making it digestible by non-financial stakeholders.
• Client stakeholder engagement: Serve as a trusted advisor to our corporate clients, sharing your expertise in educational workshops that align a client's internal teams-from tax to sustainability-around a shared vision of climate impact and financial efficiency. Act as the technical liaison to clients' internal and external tax advisors, accounting teams, and legal counsel to ensure credibility and efficacy of 3Degrees' advisory services.
• Strategic sourcing & developer relations: In conjunction with Power Markets team members, nurture meaningful relationships within the renewable energy ecosystem to ensure our clients have access to diverse, impactful TTC project options that are risk-mitigated and highly likely to reach commercial operation.
• Risk mitigation & quality assurance: Lead the evaluation of project-level risks, including "recapture" risk and qualification for bonus credits (e.g., domestic content, energy communities), ensuring that all credits presented to buyers meet rigorous standards.
• Contract negotiation: Help negotiate Tax Credit Transfer Agreements (TCTAs), working closely with clients' commercial, tax, accounting, and legal teams.
• Cross-functional collaboration: Work with various internal teams to architect hybrid product offerings that differentiate 3Degrees.

Requirements

About You

• Professional experience: 3-4+ years in accounting, finance, tax equity, investment banking, or specialized energy law. Specific experience in these areas related to renewable energy is certainly a bonus, but not required.

• Tax accounting fluency: You possess practical knowledge of tax credit transferability, as introduced in the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and the U.S. Federal Tax Code, specifically Section 6418 provisions. While a CPA is not strictly required, you must be able to build technical trust with corporate accountants and tax advisors.
• The "consultative seller" mindset: You enjoy business development and are comfortable being the technical lead on sales calls.
• Strong project management: You have demonstrated attention to technical detail and thrive on being the "technical engine" of the consultative engagement.
• Communication: Ability to translate complex concepts into "c-suite ready" pitch materials and executive presentations.
• Education: A Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or Engineering is required. Advanced degrees (JD, MBA, or Master's in Taxation) or certifications
