Description

Join Our Team as a Senior Project Manager!
Data Center | South Lyon, Michigan

Slifco Electric is a premier electrical contracting firm serving the Automotive, Heavy Industrial, and Mission Critical sectors. We specialize in both ground-up construction and major renovations, managing electrical packages ranging from small service work to multi-million-dollar installations.

The Role:

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager who can take the reins on complex projects, from bidding and preconstruction to construction and closeout. You'll also mentor 1-2 junior project managers, making sure the whole team succeeds. Think of it as leading the charge, keeping projects on time, under budget, and done right - while building strong client relationships and having fun doing it!

What You'll Be Doing:

• Lead bidding process, including pre-bid meetings, site walk-throughs, and final proposals.
• Crunch numbers and assemble estimates: labor, materials, subcontractors, and all the costs.
• Negotiate contracts and lock in final scopes.
• Be the go-to person for clients, general contractors, and your project team.
• Mentor and oversee 1-2 junior PMs - guide, support, and mentor.
• Keep everyone on track: schedules, milestones, progress reports, and status updates.
• Monitor budgets, forecast costs, and keep projects profitable.
• Coordinate with other trades, superintendents, foremen, and safety teams to make sure everything runs smoothly and safely.
• Handle all project paperwork like a pro: submittals, contracts, POs, and revisions.
• Communicate any delays, scope changes, or cost impacts and make sure solutions are in place.

What We're Looking For:

• 10+ years in electrical project management and estimating.
• Experience managing large-scale projects ($30M-$200M).
• Leadership experience mentoring junior project managers or teams.
• Comfortable with Microsoft Office and estimating software (Accu-Bid, McCormick).
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Experience preparing estimates over $1M.
• Design-build experience is a plus.
• Background in Institutional, Automotive, or Heavy Industrial electrical projects is a must.
• Strong relationship-building skills with clients, vendors, and teams.
• Pre-employment drug testing required.

Why You'll Love Working Here:

• Opportunity to support complex and large-scale electrical construction projects.
• Collaborative, team-oriented environment.
• Stable and growing organization.
• Opportunities for professional growth and advancement.
