Project Manager

TLDR

Manage and execute commercial solar and storage projects with a focus on operational discipline and accountability, ensuring tight execution from kickoff through closeout.

Most energy companies hand off a project the moment the ribbon is cut. Our client doesn't — they originate, engineer, construct, and operate clean energy infrastructure under one roof, which means the work here has real continuity and real consequence. As a Project Manager I, you'll step into a structured, high-accountability environment where commercial solar and storage projects are delivered with an operator's discipline from kickoff through closeout. This is a role for someone who finds satisfaction in tight execution, not just big-picture strategy — and who wants to grow inside a company that's scaling a new standard for distributed energy.

What You'll Own

  • Lead day-to-day project execution across commercial solar and storage projects — contracts, scope, schedule, permits, inspections, and documentation control
  • Own financial tracking: monthly billing, cost forecasting, weekly financial reviews, and time entry accuracy by CSI and job coding
  • Drive procurement and subcontractor coordination including buyout support, agreement drafting, and construction meeting management
  • Lead client communications and OAC discussions with clarity and professionalism
  • Support pre-construction and bidding efforts including RFP/RFQ responses and scope distribution
  • Manage RFIs, change orders, rebate management, and project closeout from start to finish
  • Maintain transparency and control across all project phases using tools including Jonas Premier, Smartsheet, MS Project, and Slack
  • Uphold safety standards, confidentiality, and ethical practices on every project

Requirements

  • A Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent hands-on experience
  • 2+ years of progressive experience on technical or commercial construction projects
  • Solid working knowledge of building permits and trades, including MEP
  • Proficiency with Google Suite, MS Office, Smartsheet, and Jonas Premier (or comparable PM platforms)
  • Experience in negotiated, client-service-oriented project environments
  • The kind of communication skills that keep clients confident and teams aligned
  • Authorization to work in the United States (sponsorship is not available for this role)
  • A personality that fits: highly organized, proactive, calm under pressure, accountable, detail-obsessed, and genuinely team-first

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and EAP
  • 401(k)
  • 1 week PTO after 6 months; unlimited PTO after 1 year
  • All benefits subject to probationary period
