Job Description

Your Role in Our Story: 

In essence, your role involves:

  • Leading product compliance activities across the Americas, ensuring renewable fuels, gases, and energy products meet all applicable regulatory and sustainability certification requirements (e.g., RFS, LCFS, RPS, green-e)

  • Managing and coordinating state and federal certification audits to maintain accreditation with zero major audit findings

  • Monitoring regulatory developments, interpreting new rulemakings and guidance, and implementing required compliance changes in a timely manner

  • Partnering with commercial, trading, legal, risk, and operations teams to assess compliance risks and opportunities and support informed decision-making

  • Representing ACT in regulatory and industry forums to support emerging compliance frameworks and protect ACT’s license to operate

  • Developing and improving regional compliance systems, processes, and training initiatives to embed a strong compliance culture

Your Expertise: 

To be successful in this role, we are looking for candidates with the following qualifications and attributes:

  • University degree in environmental science, engineering, law, or a related field
  • 8–10+ years of experience in product compliance, renewable fuels, gas trading, or regulated environmental commodities
  • Deep knowledge of sustainability certification and regulatory frameworks, including REC, RFS, LCFS, and RPS programs
  • Proven ability to manage complex, multi-jurisdictional compliance requirements and regulatory audits independently
  • Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence across functions and geographies without direct authority
  • Strategic, resilient, and diplomatic mindset with the ability to operate effectively in ambiguous regulatory environments

This role may be performed remotely. However, candidates who reside within a commutable distance to ACT’s New York City office are expected to work in the office four (4) days per week.

The base pay range for this position is $150,000-200,000 annually; however, base pay offered may vary depending on location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. The base pay is just one component of the total competitive compensation package for employees. 

If you meet these criteria and are ready to contribute your expertise to a dynamic and challenging environment, we encourage you to apply.
