WHO WE ARE
Perry Electrical has spent over 13 years building a reputation in Kansas that we’re proud of not just for the quality of our electrical work, but for the way we do business. We’re a commercial electrical contractor that shows up, follows through, and holds ourselves to a high standard on every project. We’re likeable, ethical, and helpful and we hire people who bring those same qualities to work every day.
We’re growing, and we’re looking for a Project Management who’s ready to be a key part of how we win work and build the right way.
OUR CORE VALUES
- We Expect Excellence – in craftsmanship, communication, and character.
- We Work Hard. We Work Smart. – every day, on every project.
- We Are Always Learning – because growth never stops.
- We Have Grit. – we finish what we start and overcome challenges together.
THE ROLE
As a Project Manager, you take a job the moment it’s won and own the management side of it all the way through closeout. You turn a winning bid into a plan the field can build by handling pre-construction, scheduling, and manpower. From there, you hand a clean, well-organized job to your foreman and support them through construction. You run the project from the office so your crews can build in the field. This is a role for someone who takes ownership seriously, brings order to the details, and doesn’t need to be chased to get it done.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
Take the handoff
- Take ownership of each job the moment it’s won, receiving the handoff from the estimator and get to know the scope, budget, and expectations inside and out.
Run pre-construction
- Own all pre-construction work, including submittals, contracts, insurance, subcontractor management and project coordination, so nothing slips before the crew ever sets foot on site.
- Build the project schedule and manpower forecast, so the right crew is on the right job at the right time.
Hand off to the field
- Hand a clean, fully planned job to your foreman at mobilization, then support field execution throughout construction.
- Stay the point person for general contractors, owners, and suppliers, and keep those relationships strong from award to closeout.
Manage the money
- Partner with the estimator to price and manage change orders as the job evolves, protecting the margin on every one.
- Coordinate with the controller on invoicing and pay applications to keep cash flowing and the job current.
- Track costs against budget throughout, catching variances early and course-correcting before small problems get big.
Close it out
- Drive closeout alongside the estimator and controller, including final documentation, final billing, and a clean, complete finish.
- Keep every project in full compliance with company safety policies and OSHA requirements. Safety is never optional.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- Commercial construction project management experience, or a degree in Construction Management, Project Management, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. We care about what you can do as much as how you got there.
- Strong proficiency with Excel, Procore, and other construction build and management tools. You’re comfortable living in these systems every day.
- High attention to detail. On your jobs, submittals are right, contracts are buttoned up, and nothing falls through the cracks.
- Initiative. You see what needs to happen, and you make it happen without waiting to be told.
- The confidence to speak up early and raise concerns, along with the habit of bringing solutions, not just problems.
- A solid grasp of budgets, cost codes, labor, and how field decisions hit the bottom line.
- The ability to turn a schedule into a staffing plan and adjust proactively as conditions change.
- Electrical field experience is a plus, not a requirement. Construction background matters more.
