Director Of Operations
-
Feb 2018 - May 2018
While at CMS, I was responsible for developing new efficiencies in our operations through detailed oversight of complex projects and paperwork. I developed streamlined internal systems to ensure rapid and accurate execution of the extensive paperwork and logistics behind solar projects. I made sure we had adequate resources to complete those activities. I maintained relationships with vendors and energized the team by encouraging "what's possible", and putting steps in place to make it happen! I left CMS after my short stent to return to my home in Boston. However, I left them with a solid groundwork in place to scale their operations and financial functions. Show less

Feb 2014 - Feb 2018
As the Senior Director of Operations at Boston Solar, I directed Operations, Design & Engineering, Customer Experience, Technology and Human Resources. I ensured that our operations and systems ran smoothly and I worked to develop employee engagement. I focused on developing and supporting sustainable growth for Boston Solar. I developed and implemented cost reduction improvements and lead our team in defining, implementing and sustaining core business processes to deliver meaningful bottom-line results. I helped develop a great team that placed ultimate importance on the customer journey and took ownership in their work. I began my career at Boston Solar in February of 2014, as a Junior Accountant, responsible for A/P, A/R and account reconciliations. I would participate in P&L and ad hoc projects as requested by the Controller. By the end of 2014, I developed and held the role of Human Resources Manager, where I developed our HR and benefits policies and procedures, mitigated risk by keeping the organization compliant with federal, state and local labor laws and regulations and promoted healthy, sustainable relationships between staff and management. While still managing HR, I was promoted to Operations Manager. I managed HVAC, Insulation and Solar production and operations at multiple locations. I enhanced internal organizational processes and infrastructure to ensure profitable, continuous growth. My next role at Boston Solar was Director of Operations and Administration, where I was responsible for ensuring that we had the best working environment and processes. I directed both the operational and financial performance of the organization. I collaborated and implemented strategic business initiatives with the CEO. Show less
