  • Coordinate with field superintendents to ensure clear communication of project expectations, deliverables, and sequencing.

  • Review blueprints and electrical plans, ensuring code compliance and constructability.

  • Forecast labor and materials needs, track costs, and maintain project profitability.

  • Provide leadership and mentorship to assistant project managers and project engineers.

  • Cultivate client relationships through responsive communication,

  • quality delivery, and on-time performance.

Required Qualifications:

  • Minimum of 7 years of project management experience in electrical construction, specifically commercial and/or multi-family projects.

  • Strong background in scheduling (MS Project, Primavera, or equivalent) and process creation.

  • Excellent understanding of NEC, OSHA, and local building/electrical codes.
