Coordinator, Community Engagement & Philanthropy

About the role

DFW is a vital growth market, and this role is designed to ensure our philanthropic and community investments align with business goals. We're looking for someone who can identify and execute high-impact community activations to build brand trust, deepen relationships with power plant communities, energize employees, and open doors for the sales team, while also implementing tight, metrics-driven programming.

Responsibilities

• Drive high-impact community strategy in DFW
• Own and grow company-wide signature programs within the DFW market — reviewing performance, strengthening execution, and scaling what works for this market
• Identify and launch new, high-impact community activations that generate measurable brand and business value
• Align charitable giving and sponsorships with business development priorities, helping turn community investment into client relationships and wins
• Cultivate strategic relationships with key DFW nonprofits and community organizations
• Build and sustain power plant community relationships
• Grow employee engagement across the region
• Elevate brand visibility and manage community-related risk
• Run the program with operational discipline

Requirements

• 4–7 years of experience in corporate philanthropy, community relations, corporate social responsibility, or a closely related field
• A relationship-builder who's equally comfortable in a plant conference room, a nonprofit partner meeting, and a leadership readout
• Comfortable translating community investment into business language
• Strong project and event management skills
• Working knowledge of (or strong appetite to learn) KPI-based program evaluation
• Experience or comfort working alongside Sales, Social Media/PR/Marketing, and Government Affairs teams
• Based in or willing to be based in the DFW area, with flexibility to travel regularly to plant sites in the region

Qualifications

The ideal candidate will have a clear point of view on how philanthropic investment should be prioritized across our markets, informed by real time spent in community partner meetings, not just in a spreadsheet reviewing KPIs.

Skills

The candidate should have strong project and event management skills, be comfortable translating community investment into business language, and have experience working with KPI-based program evaluation.

Internal Partners

You'll work with Philanthropy, Power Plants leadership and staff, Sales, Social Media/PR/Marketing, Government Affairs, and Business Unit leadership.
