BACKGROUND
Since 2011, USIPA has served as the trade association promoting the use of US wood pellets to decarbonize global heat and power production. We advocate for wood energy as a smart solution to climate change and support renewable energy policy development worldwide. Our members represent all aspects of the US wood pellet industry, including producers, traders, equipment manufacturers, bulk shippers, service providers, and other supply chain actors.
In a little more than a decade, US wood pellet production has grown from almost zero to more than 9 million metric tons valued at more than $1.5 billion annually. Today, the US is the world’s leading exporter of wood pellets, supplying more than a dozen countries across Europe and Asia.
The US wood pellet industry is now entering a period of innovation and transformation. With the world rapidly mobilizing to address the climate crisis, the demand for wood pellets is shifting into higher value applications to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors where solutions are needed most. This includes the production of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF), green steel, cement, carbon removal through Bioenergy Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) and power to X (P2X) applications.
POSITION
USIPA seeks a dynamic, highly experienced, seasoned leader to guide the association during its next chapter of growth and transformation. As Executive Director, you will position USIPA for continued success by honing the association’s strategic direction, providing leadership and mentorship to USIPA staff, aligning and managing resources to achieve its goals, and expanding its membership. This role is multifaceted and involves a combination of strategic, managerial, and leadership responsibilities. The Executive Director position can be remote, hybrid, or located in the Washington DC office as preferred. Benefits (e.g., 401K, insurance, etc.) are competitive. Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.
RESPONSIBILITIES
As defined above, the role will include support from multiple consultancies in critical markets, USIPA’s Vice President, Communications and External Affairs, and other staff as hired.
