  • Procure major equipment and subcontractors while managing costs and delivery schedules
  • Conduct jobsite visits to monitor progress, resolve issues, and support field operations
  • Identify cost-saving opportunities and proactively solve project challenges
  • Work closely with estimating during project turnover and throughout construction
  • Ensure projects are delivered safely, on schedule, and within budget

Requirements

What We're Looking For
  • Assistant Project Manager: 2+ years of experience supporting electrical construction projects
  • Project Manager: 5+ years of experience managing commercial electrical construction projects
  • Strong understanding of electrical systems, construction methods, and project management
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contracts
  • Experience with Procore, Bluebeam, Accubid, or similar construction software is preferred
  • Excellent organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Self-motivated professional who takes ownership and follows through

Benefits

Why Melton Electric
  • Work on some of Houston's most complex healthcare, aviation, commercial, and mission-critical projects
  • Direct access to company leadership with the ability to make an immediate impact
  • Lean organization where your ideas and decisions matter
  • Long-term career growth with opportunities to lead larger and more complex projects
  • Family-owned company with over 55 years of stability and a reputation for quality
