ABOUT THE ROLE

Plus Power recruits outstanding energy industry professionals who are driven to develop, build and operate assets safely and reliably to decarbonize the power markets while growing their careers. Our team looks for data-driven and fact-based mindsets, engaging and collaborative behaviors, and personal growth-focused professionals.
In order for the global energy system to make the transition from a carbon-based grid, to a renewable energy grid, large scale energy storage must be introduced into the electricity system to balance intra-hour supply and demand. Energy storage is the enabler of high penetration variable renewable generation like solar and wind.
We are looking for a Director of Tax to join the Accounting Team to lead the strategic tax planning and compliance functions for our renewable energy development and independent power production operations. This role combines deep tax expertise with specific knowledge of renewable energy tax incentives, structuring, and compliance requirements.
