About the role
About the Company:
Our client is a national clean energy platform on a mission to scale sustainable infrastructure responsibly and equitably. They’re committed to embedding prevailing wage and labor compliance at the heart of their growth — not as a checkbox exercise, but as a strategic foundation for long-term success. As part of their expanding portfolio of renewable energy and infrastructure projects, they are seeking an experienced Prevailing Wage & Labor Compliance Expert to play a central role in shaping and executing their compliance strategy.
The Opportunity:
This is a rare chance to join a company where compliance is viewed as a value driver — influencing decisions across development, procurement, construction, and operations. You’ll work directly with leadership and project delivery teams to ensure labor standards, wage determinations, and responsible sourcing practices are met across multiple projects. Why This Role Stands Out🌎 Portfolio-Level Impact – Influence strategy across a national platform, not just project-by-project.📈 Long-Term Engagement – Secure a multi-year contract with visibility across upcoming clean energy assets.💰 Industry-Leading Compensation – Significant pay uplift for doing the work you already excel at.🤝 ESG-Aligned Mission – Join a platform that genuinely prioritizes labor equity, ethical compliance, and community impact.
Key Responsibilities:
Develop and implement prevailing wage and labor compliance programs across multiple projects.
Partner with internal stakeholders (development, procurement, legal, HR) to ensure consistent compliance frameworks.
Audit contractors and subcontractors to verify adherence to federal and state wage standards.
Prepare documentation and reporting to support regulatory reviews and investor ESG commitments.
Serve as subject-matter expert for labor compliance across the portfolio.
Preferred Background:
Proven experience managing prevailing wage compliance (Davis-Bacon Act, PLA, or similar frameworks).Strong understanding of construction, renewable energy, or infrastructure project environments.
Excellent knowledge of state and federal labor standards, documentation, and audit procedures.
Ability to lead training, policy creation, and multi-stakeholder engagement around compliance best practices.
Strong communication and influence skills with both field and executive-level stakeholders.

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
