Lighting and Specialty ECM Fulfillment Project Manager

Role Description

We are seeking a highly capable leader to serve as the North America fulfillment expert for lighting-focused and other non-core energy conservation measure (ECM) projects across the business. This role will primarily focus on lighting and will also require working knowledge of other non-core ECMs such as building envelope, water, transformers, and related energy-saving measures.

This is not a direct project management role. Instead, this individual will act as a strategic and operational fulfillment leader who supports regional teams in delivering projects successfully, consistently, and safely. The role will partner closely with regional teams, development, preconstruction, fulfillment, and field project managers to improve project outcomes, reduce process waste, develop standard work, strengthen contractor engagement, and support execution across both turnkey and deconstructed delivery models.

The ideal candidate brings deep lighting experience, strong field credibility, a practical understanding of project logistics and construction support, and the ability to influence execution across North America through both in-person and remote support.

  • Collaborate closely with development, preconstruction, fulfillment, regional operations, and field teams.
  • Help bridge strategy and execution by translating project intent into actionable field support and fulfillment practices.
