Field Project Manager

Position Overview

This position is in-person in MA. Candidate must reside locally full-time.

Commercial Solar Guy is a Massachusetts-based commercial solar developer and licensed general contractor and electricity with $8.7M+ in 2025 construction revenue across projects including Harvard University and Hanscom Air Force Base. We are growing rapidly, with over $16.5M in signed backlog entering 2026 and multiple concurrent projects ranging from $400K to $4M.

We are hiring a Field Project Manager to serve as our on-the-ground construction anchor in Massachusetts. This role is the critical hire for our 2026-2027 execution capacity. You will work directly with our field electrical and solar subcontractors, report to our remote PM Lead (Sena), and coordinate daily with our in-house field electrician/PM support (Scott Robbins).

Expect to be in the field 4 to 5 days per week. The exact cadence will shift based on how many projects are active and what phase they are in — some weeks are busier than others — but this is fundamentally a field role, not an office one.

This is a field-first position. The right person makes decisions on site, keeps crews moving, and owns job-level accountability day to day. If you are looking for a desk job, this is not it.

Why This Role Exists

Our PM Lead is transitioning to a remote/western-based position. She will continue to manage the PM department, oversee procurement, and handle all paperwork-heavy PM functions from a distance. What she can no longer do is be on site in Massachusetts.

With multiple projects ramping simultaneously alongside 4-6 other active jobs, we need a local, experienced field PM who can:

• Primary site-level point of contact across multiple concurrent projects
• Manage field subcontractor crews day to day without needing remote escalation for every decision
• Push the schedule, own the punch list, and close out jobs cleanly
• Represent CSG professionally with customers, inspectors, and utilities

Where You FitReports to: Sena (PM Lead, remote)

Works closely with: Scott Robbins (Field Electrician/PM Support), field electrical & solar subcontractors

Coordinates with: Benjie Borra (GV/Engineering/Design), Richelle (Interconnection/Operations), John Weaver (GM)

Core ResponsibilitiesField Execution

• Serve as CSG's daily on-site presence across 3-6 concurrent commercial solar projects, primarily in Massachusetts, & Rhode Island.
• Guide and oversee, but not directly manage, licensed subcontractor crews across multiple trades to schedule, budget, and quality standards
• Conduct daily site walks, track progress against project schedules, and flag issues early
• Receive and coordinate material deliveries to job sites, including rental equipment such as storage containers and lifts
• Take pictures, pick up needed items, meet clients, and other “small’ tasks needed to keep the construction team moving
• Drive punch list completion and coordinate commissioning activities
• Attend inspections, AHJ meetings, and utility walk-throughs as the CSG representative

Project Coordination & Communication

• Maintain job-level communication with the remote PM Lead through daily updates on active/critical phases and weekly updates during standard progress periods — frequency driven by project needs
• Track RFIs, submittals, and change orders in coordination with the PM Lead's paperwork process
• Coordinate material deliveries and equipment sequencing with the procurement team
• Flag scope changes or site conditions that affect cost or schedule immediately — proactive transparency is the standard, not the exception

Schedule & Customer Transparency

• Treat schedule transparency as a core responsibility: as soon as a delay is possible, the team is informed — not after it is confirmed
• Some projects include recurring customer calls — when they do, attendance is expected unless there is a conflict. You are the face of CSG on the job site and that extends to the call.
• Maintain an accurate, up-to-date picture of project progress and communicate it clearly to both the PM Lead and the customer
• Manage customer expectations on schedule, access, and site conditions with professionalism and honesty
• Coordinate with utility and inspection representatives on timing as required

Safety

• Own job-site safety documentation, pre-task planning, and incident reporting
• Enforce safety standards consistently across all subcontractor crews on site
• Maintain OSHA compliance records for all active projects
• Work with our in-house field electrician to build a consistent site safety culture across all CSG jobs

What Success Looks Like — First 90 Days

• In seat and oriented on all active projects within two weeks of start
• Established direct working relationships with field subcontractor leads and crew supervisors across active projects
• Clear communication cadence established with Sena (weekly PM sync minimum)
• Safety documentation current and organized on all active jobs
• No schedule surprises that weren't flagged in advance

QualificationsRequired

• Local to Massachusetts — this role requires consistent on-site presence across eastern MA, with occasional projects in NH and RI.
• Strong, hands-on background in active construction management — you must understand how a construction site actually runs: sequencing, crew dynamics, subcontractor accountability, and what it takes to keep a job moving. Solar experience is strongly preferred; parallel fields such as electrical, civil, or commercial construction considered.
• Solid working knowledge of electrical work — not necessarily a licensed electrician, but understand the scope, sequencing, and language of electrical installation well above the average person. You will be coordinating and holding electrical subcontractors accountable on a daily basis.
• Comfortable working alongside and earning the respect of tradespeople and field crews — you can walk a job site, speak plainly, and hold your own with experienced construction professionals
• Digitally competent: construction management platforms, Excel, Word, Google Worksuite, and document and photo management are part of your daily workflow. We will onboard you to our specific systems and processes; expectation that you're comfortable with these tools in a construction context.
• Strong communicator in both directions — equally at home updating a remote manager in writing and having a direct conversation on a job site
• Valid driver's license
• OSHA 30 certification (or willingness to obtain within first 60 days)

Preferred — Not Required

• Experience working with and coordinating multiple subcontractor crews on active sites
