New York, NY Bright Power, Inc. has begun a transition in leadership that is new, yet familiar. Jeff Perlman, who founded Bright Power 18 years ago, and has led the company as CEO since, will have Andrea Mancino become the company’s interim CEO as he moves into a new position, chief strategy officer.
Mancino is an industry veteran with a deep understanding of both the industry and the organization. Mancino initially served as the executive vice president of the New York business unit, overseeing operations for all service offerings. Before that, Mancino led the new construction and commissioning divisions, which she co-founded and built up. She is on several working groups for energy codes and green building programs. Mancino is also a proud member of the women in construction advocacy group, as well as a board member for Northeast Sustainable Energy Association (NESEA) and a 2019 Environmental + Energy Leader 100 honoree.
The role of chief strategy officer will allow Perlman to focus on developing innovative approaches to opportunities arising from city, state and federal initiatives, as well as thought leadership. With a number of policy developments, including building performance standards (such as Local Law 97 in NYC) and the Inflation Reduction Act, the company is presented with opportunities for growth and development. Justin Pateman and Megan Gill will continue their roles as Bright Power’s CFO and CRO.
Mancino, Gill and Perlman will lead a cohesive executive team that is fully committed to propelling Bright Power forward, growing their nearly 20-year tenure at the forefront of the green economy.
“I am so proud of what we have been able to accomplish at Bright Power over the last 18 years,” says Perlman. “And I am excited for the new leadership that Andrea brings. It has been a pleasure to watch her grow for a decade at this company to the strong leader she is today.”
“I want to thank Jeff for his tireless efforts and leadership over the last 18 years. Bright Power was founded by Jeff on the principle of addressing climate change and making the world a better place, one building at a time,” said Mancino. “It is truly an honor for Jeff to pass the baton to me. I’ve put my heart and soul into this company for a decade and I look forward to leading it into a very bright future.”
