About Metergy:
As the #1 submeter provider in the New York, Philadelphia and Canadian markets, and one of the largest in North America, Metergy has over 950,000 contracted meters, issues more than 2 million utility invoices annually, and has over 550 team members. Our successful acquisitions have consistently exceeded expectations, unlocking immense growth potential.

Our innovative Submetering as a Service (SaaS) model generates long-term recurring revenue and has been proven to reduce in-suite energy consumption by an impressive 40%, significantly advancing our clients' decarbonization efforts. This outstanding performance has enabled Metergy to issue green bonds and secure green financing, fueling our sustained growth and creating extraordinary career opportunities for our team.

Metergy is undergoing transformational growth. EBITDA has doubled over the last five years and will more than double again over the next five years based on existing contracted backlog. On top of this there is an amazing opportunity to greatly accelerate that growth by continuing to bring Metergy’s SaaS business model to the US market. Four years ago, Metergy had no presence in the US and now Metergy has contracts/services across 42 states and the opportunity to continue this growth trajectory is tangible. This role will play a critical role in continuing this trend.

Metergy is proudly a portfolio company of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners, one of the world’s largest investors, owners, and operators of infrastructure assets across the utilities, transport, energy, data, and sustainable resources sectors. This partnership provides Metergy with access to substantial capital, infrastructure investment expertise, and a global reach, positioning us for continued success and innovation.
