Assistant Regional Operations Manager

Assistant Regional Operations Manager – Solar Houston, TX Full-Time Salaried, Exempt On-Site A solar install isn't done when the panels go up. It's done when the inspection clears, the power's reconnected, and the paperwork's closed out. That's your territory. Freedom Power was born when Freedom Solar and Freedom HVAC joined forces to become Texas's complete whole-house energy company. We don't just install equipment. We hand homeowners the keys to something bigger: control over their energy, their bills, and their future. We call it Energy Empowerment, and it's not a tagline — it's the reason we show up every day. As Assistant Regional Operations Manager, you'll own the coordination, compliance, and communications layer that gets our Houston-region solar projects inspected, reconnected, and closed. Where the ROM owns the front half of a project — scheduling, homeowner authorization, getting a job install-ready — you own the back half: compliance, inspections, utility and AHJ coordination, reconnection, and keeping everyone talking to each other. You'll report directly to the ROM and step in as their backup when it counts. Your Day-to-Day Own inspection scheduling — shutdown, utility, city/AHJ, and meter-release inspections. Serve as the primary point of contact with utility companies and jurisdictions for shutdowns, inspections, and reconnection. Schedule subcontractor crews and coordinate their dates against the overall install schedule. Make sure every crew Job Packet is accurate before it hits the field. Manage local installer payroll audits and payroll app acceptance and accuracy. Process installation reporting, and upload photos and documents into customer files. Manage the solar installation workflow for the Houston region. Initiate inspection processes and work directly with the Inspections Coordinator. Manage customer accounts in Project Sunrise from installation through project completion. Own regional communications — keeping the ROM, crews, and subcontractors aligned on schedules, status, and blockers. Partner closely with the ROM and HR on employee relations issues. Back up the ROM as needed, stepping into front-half responsibilities when required.
