Electrical Project Manager

Ready Power USA

About Ready Power

Here's something you won't hear very often: We haven't turned down a single request for time off in two years. Not one. While other companies talk about work-life balance, we actually live it because we treat employees like people whose families and interests matter, not production numbers.

We're not an electrical contractor who dabbles in generators — backup power is all we do, and we've been the Gulf South's go-to specialist since 2009 with over 850 five-star reviews to prove it. Small team, founders still hands-on, and it's a true meritocracy where good work gets noticed immediately.

About This Position

You'll manage substantial commercial backup power projects from bid stage through completion — these are already funded installations, not prospects you need to chase . As the face of Ready Power at pre-bid meetings and the direct liaison between ownership and municipal/facility owners, you'll oversee structural foundations, electrical work, gas fitting, and miscellaneous construction while problem-solving unexpected issues with utilities and inspections. Everything's handled internally with real-time technical support from our in-house review department, so you're never left hanging on complex problems. Travel is primarily local with occasional out-of-state projects to Texas, and we respect your time with reasonable scheduling.

What We're Looking For

3+ years of technical project management experience in commercial construction or related fields
Background in electrical trade
Strong owner-facing communication skills with municipal and facility owners (not just subcontractor coordination)
Proven problem-solving ability and attention to detail in construction environments
Heavy trade skills knowledge including electrical, structural, and mechanical components
Professional representation skills for client meetings and pre-bid presentations
Comfortable with frequent travel for job site visits and project oversight

What's In It For You

Competitive base salary with project outcome-based incentives
Company vehicle, gas, and equipment provided
Comprehensive benefits package and generous PTO policy (time-off requests don't get denied)
Real-time technical support from in-house review department
Direct access to founders and ownership — your contributions get seen and rewarded
Specialization in essential infrastructure with consistent municipal and commercial demand
Professional development opportunities in growing commercial division

Ready to manage projects that keep the lights on when the grid fails? Apply today — interviews happening this week.
