Project Manager (Utility T&D and Substations)
Locations: Akron, OH | Pittsburgh, PA | Reading, PA | Richmond, VA
Work Arrangement: On-Site
Our client is a growing project and program management consulting firm supporting major electric utility infrastructure and capital improvement programs. They are expanding their project-management team and looking for experienced utility professionals who want to take ownership of complex, highly visible infrastructure projects.
This opportunity specifically requires hands-on electric utility Transmission, Distribution and/or Substation project experience. Candidates must have direct experience managing utility infrastructure projects through the construction/execution phase. General construction, commercial electrical, IT, telecom, facilities, or engineering/design experience without direct utility T&D/Substation project management will not meet the requirements of this position.
What You'll Do
You'll take ownership of electric utility capital projects from preconstruction through engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and closeout, working directly with engineering teams, contractors, field personnel and utility stakeholders.
Base Salary: $125,000–$175,000, depending on experience and depth of utility T&D/Substation expertise.
The Company Also Offers
This isn't a desk-only PM position. You'll have the opportunity to work on critical electric infrastructure projects, partner directly with utility and construction teams, and have meaningful ownership over projects from planning through energization and closeout.
For an experienced T&D/Substation Project Manager who enjoys being close to the work, solving complex project challenges and seeing major infrastructure projects through to completion, this is an opportunity to join a growing organization with a strong pipeline of long-term utility work.
Important: Please apply only if your background includes direct electric utility Transmission, Distribution and/or Substation project experience. This requirement is central to the position.
