About GreenerU

At GreenerU, we envision educational and community institutions leading the world in mitigating climate change. Our mission is to help our clients achieve climate neutrality and sustainable operations.

GreenerU helps institutions navigate the organizational, operational, and infrastructure changes required to reach climate neutrality through planning, engineering, and implementation. We’re in this because we care—about the planet, about our clients, and about each other.

We are looking for a committed, passionate, fun, and energetic individual to join our team.

The Position

The Fellow will be paired with a mentor and contribute directly to client deliverables and customer-facing materials.

We offer a flexible schedule and a hybrid work environment, with an expectation of being in the office at least one day per week and occasional opportunities to learn and work at customer sites.
