Job Summary
Looking for a role that gets you out of the office, lets you travel the country, and opens the door to long-term career growth? This is your opportunity to join a fast-growing company in an entry-level position—no prior experience required.
We’re hiring Lighting Auditors: motivated, detail-oriented individuals who are ready to learn, work independently, and explore new places every week.
As a Lighting Auditor, you’ll be on-site at commercial buildings counting, documenting, and surveying lighting fixtures and basic electrical systems. You’ll walk through facilities, identify and record lighting types and conditions, and gather the data our team uses to design energy-efficient upgrades. It’s hands-on, active, and straightforward work that you’ll be trained to do.
