Senior Electrical Project Manager

ABOUT YOU

PureGrid Electrical is looking for a Senior Electrical Project Manager who is a proven leader, strategic thinker, and driven by flawless execution. You are an exceptional communicator and strategist who thrives on overseeing complex, multi-million dollar electrical projects, driving financial performance, managing risk, and maintaining tight control over schedules and resources.

You excel at translating complex designs into high-yield execution plans, maintaining strong client and general contractor partnerships, and mentoring project personnel. If you are a collaborative leader who values safety, profitability, and precision, and you enjoy a fast-paced environment where you can take total ownership of major industrial electrical scopes from estimation through commissioning, you'll fit right in.

A DAY IN THE LIFE

• Executive Project Ownership: Lead overall financial, operational, and safety success for large-scale, complex industrial electrical projects, maintaining full P&L accountability from preconstruction through final closeout.
• Strategic Client & Partner Leadership: Serve as the primary senior executive contact for owners, general contractors, engineering firms, and key stakeholders, driving client retention and securing high-value repeat business.
• Team Leadership & Mentorship: Direct, mentor, and develop Project Managers, Assistant Project Managers, and project administrative staff, fostering high standards of execution and supporting professional career growth.
• Advanced Financial Management: Manage overall project profitability, cash flow forecasting, risk mitigation, major subcontracts, high-stakes change order negotiations, and monthly billing approvals.
• High-Level Procurement & Vendor Strategy: Oversee procurement strategy for critical long-lead power distribution equipment (switchgear, transformers), mitigating supply chain risk through strategic vendor negotiations.
• Field & Operational Alignment: Partner closely with Field Operations Managers and General Superintendents to optimize labor allocation, resolve high-level field bottlenecks, and ensure uncompromised safety and quality standards.

NECESSARY QUALIFICATIONS

• Experience: 8–12+ years of progressive project management leadership within the electrical subcontracting industry, with a proven track record managing large-scale industrial or heavy commercial electrical scopes ($5M–$20M+).
• Technical Expertise: Deep technical mastery of industrial electrical distribution systems, power systems, medium/high voltage equipment, NEC compliance, and complex single-line drawings.
• Education: Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field is preferred; Master Electrician license or equivalent extensive trade leadership experience highly valued.
• Software & Business Acumen: Advanced proficiency in Procore, Bluebeam, scheduling software (e.g., Primavera P6 or MS Project), and financial/cost-control platforms.
• Skills & Leadership Approach: Strong business acumen, executive-level communication skills, high-level negotiation ability, and a decisive, solutions-oriented leadership style.
• Travel & Location: Ability to travel as needed to oversee strategic job sites across the country during critical project milestones.
