C-Wise is a small company with a big mission. We specialize in LEED consulting. With your help we can expand to deliver more certifications and take on more residential design work in the Iowa City area.

At C-Wise we talk about climate action every single day. If you yearn to secure measurable progress in reducing carbon emissions, C-Wise is the place for you.  

A good match for C-Wise will love: dogs, spreadsheets, fine print and have a strong professional commitment to the imperative of green building and climate action.  A fondness for diplomacy is also a superb asset because creating change and project management demands superior diplomatic skills. 

One to two years working experience preferred.  Our work is specialized. Experience with LEED would be superb, but not required. A robust commitment to climate action is essential.  If you have a commitment to the mission and a penchant for learning and problem solving, you can learn the rest on the job.

Salary will be competitive and commensurate with experience.  While Iowa City has been ranked among the best places to live, moving is a big commitment. A remote trial period can be a point of conversation.

Start date in July or August 2023.  More details and links to further information at: https://www.dropbox.com/s/j8pul767y6l1rcp/CWise%20LEED%20Intern%20Architect_04.06.23.pdf?dl=0
