As our business continues to grow, we are seeking an experienced Commercial Project Delivery Manager to join our operations team and help support the successful execution of an expanding portfolio of commercial solar projects. This is not a traditional project management role. We're looking for someone who enjoys making an entire organization stronger. Someone who naturally asks: How can I help this team succeed?

About The Role As Exact Solar has grown, so has the complexity and volume of the projects we deliver. We already have an experienced operations team, including our Master Electrician who oversees our commercial field operations and has been instrumental in building our reputation for quality. However, we are hoping to find a seasoned project or construction management professional to increase our operational capacity and provide the additional bandwidth needed to support a growing organization.

Who We're Looking For This role is ideal for someone who enjoys collaborating with experienced professionals rather than working independently in a silo. The strongest candidates will be comfortable moving between the office and the field, helping solve problems wherever they're needed—whether that’s reviewing engineering progress, walking a jobsite with a foreman, coordinating equipment deliveries, assisting with hiring, or helping ownership think several months ahead. More than anything, we're looking for a servant leadership personality. Someone who: Builds trust before making changes. Leads through collaboration rather than authority. Enjoys helping others become more successful. Listens first and acts thoughtfully. Earns respect through competence, humility, and consistency. Values teamwork over ego. #J-18808-Ljbffr Exact Solar
