Making clean energy inclusive for all

We aim to attract, retain, and develop a diverse workforce of employees who reflect our customers and the communities we serve. We believe that empowering people and valuing their differences are essential for our mission of connecting people to the cleanest energy on earth.
Attract
Our Communities team partners with Sunrun's recruiting team to enhance our presence and attract top talent. We also engage in community efforts that align with our mission of connecting people to the cleanest energy on earth.
Retain
We work with teams like Benefits and Employee Progression to ensure Sunrunners feel valued, supported, and motivated to stay with the company long-term.
Develop
We foster a culture of growth and belonging where all Sunrunners, especially our frontline employees, are encouraged to develop their skills and advance in their careers.
Sunrun Communities
Our Communities (also known as Employee Resource Groups) are an important part of our culture here. A Community is a network of employees who share a common identity, characteristic, or set of interests. Our Communities serve as advocates for promoting belonging in our workplace.
"What I love most about being in the communities is seeing people from all walks of life wanting to learn more. There are people from different communities going through things and seeking help and support. I love how we come together, almost like family. The togetherness we have as communities is something I really enjoy."
Sunrun Networks
Sunrun Networks are employees who share a common passion or set of interests. Networks exist to support and sustain a culture of inclusiveness and encourage employees to bring their authentic selves to work.

"I love how Sunrun Networks bring people together around what we’re passionate about, creating a space where we can be ourselves and connect with others."

"My favorite aspect about working at Sunrun is the overall culture and community that's been established. I've never worked for a company that has anything close to the support that Sunrun's Inclusion Communities provide. One of the biggest challenges of being a military spouse is having to completely uproot your life and move to a new community and there are many variables that make that transition stressful. Fortunately, Sunrun has been amazing in accommodating the recent PCS my family has gone through to move across the country."
We are proud to partner with FairyGodBoss, the largest career community for women. This partnership helps us connect with talented women professionals and create a workplace where they can thrive. Through FairyGodBoss, we showcase our commitment to gender equity, highlight women’s achievements at Sunrun, and provide resources that empower women to succeed in their careers.
