Head of Project Management

We are seeking an experienced Solar PV Project Manager to own the full construction lifecycle of commercial distributed generation solar projects - from project acquisition through post COD closeout. This is an owner's rep PM role, not a CM role. You will not be swinging a hammer or managing crews directly, but you will be accountable for schedule, budget, quality, safety, and regulatory compliance across every project in your portfolio.

What You'll Do Take ownership of projects at acquisition and drive them through preconstruction, construction, and closeout

Conduct site visits during the preconstruction period to assess buildability, site access, and potential construction risks

Manage RFP processes, bid benchmarking, and contractor selection in coordination with third party consulting firms

Build and maintain project schedules and budgets, tracking costs and timeline against plan throughout construction

Serve as the owner's rep on site, overseeing installation quality and QC processes without directly managing field crews

Manage EPC and subcontract agreements in coordination with team leads and inside counsel

Own permitting and regulatory compliance including development of permit matrices, noise ordinances, dust control requirements, and other site specific requirements

Manage change order requests, deficiency logs, meeting minutes, and all project documentation

Coordinate logistics of major material deliveries, mobilization plans, and sequencing

Lead Integrated Project Team meetings and take over developer coordination after project acquisition

Stay ahead of ancillary site obligations such as property line compliance, grazing agreements, and other land related requirements

Support process improvement and standardization across preconstruction and construction workflows

What You'll Bring 5+ years of experience in solar construction project management, preferably commercial DG

Background in solar construction strongly preferred; candidates from adjacent construction disciplines will be considered

Experience functioning as an owner's rep overseeing third party contractors and consulting firms

Strong command of schedule and budget management, permitting, and EPC contract administration

Proficiency in Procore, MS Project, Bluebeam, and ERP/CRM platforms

PMP and/or NABCEP PVIP certification preferred

Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Renewable Energy, or related field
