Job description:

The senior Utility Project Manager should have at least 3+ years of experience.

You will be managing a team on the Distributed Energy Resource (DER) Solar Project.

Expected to take ownership of the overall successful delivery of assigned projects from initiation through execution and closeout. The Senior Project Manager is accountable for managing scope, schedule, budget, safety, risk, and overall project performance while coordinating the cross-functional organizations needed to complete the work. This includes engineering, estimating, construction, scheduling, cost, contracting, operations, developers, customers, and other internal and external stakeholders. When a project begins to deviate from its approved scope, cost, or schedule, the Senior Project Manager is expected to identify the issue early, develop recovery plans, remove barriers, escalate when necessary, and actively drive the project back toward its commitments rather than simply reporting the problem.

Must have a degree in Business, Project Management, or Engineering
