Company Description

RECmint is the fastest-growing SREC aggregator in the mid-Atlantic. 

Solar Renewable Energy Certificates, or SRECs, have proven to be a vital policy tool and financial incentive to make the clean energy transition happen. SRECs simultaneously align individuals, utilities, and government toward reaching our climate goals while also making solar financially feasible for many more homeowners, business, and asset owners.

We’re creating a customer-centric organization that makes SRECs easy for our partners and solar owners. Through our platform and market-friendly approach, we aim to help accelerate the clean energy transition.

RECmint is part of the Sun Tribe Group, a family of solar companies.

Role Description

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys untangling complex problems and wants to be part of a mission-driven team tackling climate change.

As an Operations Specialist, you’ll work behind the scenes to resolve the more technical or detail-heavy steps of SREC registration. You’ll be part investigator, part systems thinker, and part steady problem-solver, helping ensure every customer gets set up accurately.

You’ll coordinate by email and phone with solar installers, state agencies, utilities, and other partners to resolve discrepancies, track down missing information, and keep registrations moving. Your day-to-day will mix troubleshooting data issues, reviewing documents, fixing edge-case problems, and escalating patterns that need process or product improvements.

We’re looking for someone who communicates with clarity, kindness, and patience, even when dealing with complex or technical details. You should be highly organized and self-motivated, able to manage multiple cases and follow-ups without requiring constant direction. If you’re the kind of person who notices small inconsistencies, follows through reliably, and stays calm when things get messy, you’ll thrive here.

We value curiosity and a willingness to learn. You don’t need a deep technical background, but you should feel comfortable digging into unfamiliar issues, untangling incomplete information, and navigating digital tools like spreadsheets and CRM systems. Above all, you should care about doing meaningful work, whether you’re driven by climate action, operational excellence, or simply the joy of helping others succeed.

We hope that you’re:

• A clear, patient communicator who can explain details simply when needed
• Reliable and self-directed. You can juggle follow-ups, document outcomes, and track details without micromanagement
• Excited to learn new tools and technology. We will teach you our specific tools and software, but you do need to have a base level of comfort with tech and a willingness to learn.
• Passionate about nature and/or renewable energy. Environmental stewardship is part of our team’s DNA.

Location & Hybrid Work:

RECmint is part of the Sun Tribe Group family of companies. Our offices are in Charlottesville, VA on the historic downtown mall, and our team is based both in Charlottesville and Richmond. 

We prefer candidates in either the Charlottesville or Richmond area. This is a part-time position, with an expected commitment of 15 to 25 hours per week, typically spread across three weekdays.

To start, you'll be expected to spend your time in-person in our Charlottesville or Richmond offices. After a few months, you'll shift to a hybrid work schedule.

Your schedule will be coordinated in advance and may include certain fixed hours, depending on customer and team needs.

Compensation & Application Process

This is a part-time, hourly role with a pay range of $35–$40 per hour, commensurate with experience and qualifications. Expected hours are 15-25 hours per week, largely during typical business hours (Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm).

You’ll be a W-2 employee and a valued member of our team, with meaningful opportunities to grow alongside the business.
