Our work spans power distribution, instrumentation, heat tracing, generator and switchgear installations, and plant upgrades in operating industrial environments — cement, power generation, petrochemical, and heavy manufacturing.
The Role
We're looking for an Electrical Project Manager to own industrial electrical construction projects end to end — from award through closeout. You'll be accountable for the schedule, the budget, the field execution plan, and the client relationship on your assigned work.

-
Build and maintain project schedules; track progress, earned value, and productivity against the baseline
-

-
Administer contracts, subcontracts, and purchase orders — including scope reviews, change orders, RFIs, and submittals
-
Coordinate material procurement and long-lead equipment against the construction sequence
-
Partner with superintendents and general foremen on manpower planning, sequencing, and constructability
-
Serve as the primary client contact: progress reporting, issue resolution, and change communication
-
Enforce safety and quality standards on every project, every day
-
Support estimating with pricing input, historical productivity data, and post-job lessons learned

Demonstrated ownership of project cost and schedule performance
-
Experience reading and interpreting electrical drawings, one-lines, and specifications
-
Understanding of project scheduling software (Primavera P6 preferred; MS Project acceptable) and Excel
-
Comfortable working in and around operating industrial facilities
-
Willingness to travel to project sites
-
Valid driver's license and ability to pass client site background and drug screening requirements

Prior work in cement, power generation, or petrochemical environments
