About the Role
We’re looking for a seasoned Project Manager to lead complex electric power and power generation projects in a manufacturing environment. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems, and working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality engineered solutions.

What You’ll Do
- Lead multiple power generation projects from kickoff through delivery and commissioning
- Act as the main client contact — managing communication, expectations, and issue resolution
- Own project performance: schedule, budget, forecasting, risk, and profitability
- Coordinate across engineering, procurement, manufacturing, quality, and operations teams
- Support contract reviews, scope definition, change management, and risk mitigation
- Work closely with fabrication and shop teams to hit production milestones and resolve challenges
- Run status meetings, provide progress updates, and keep stakeholders aligned
- Identify opportunities to improve processes and project delivery
What We’re Looking For
- 10–15 years of project management experience in power generation, manufacturing, fabrication, EPC, or heavy industrial environments
- Strong experience with engineered-to-order or custom manufacturing projects
- Solid understanding of manufacturing, supply chain, and procurement processes
- Proven ability to manage multiple projects and stakeholders in a fast-paced setting
- Strong communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills
- Degree in Engineering, Business, Construction Management, or similar (preferred)
Nice to Have
- PMP certification
- Experience with utility-scale power systems or modular fabrication
- Familiarity with project controls (WBS, EVM, critical path)
- Strong working knowledge of Microsoft 365 tools
