We are seeking a Senior Manager, Project Management-Power Delivery to lead and grow our Project Management Organization within the Grid Engineering & Analytics team. In this leadership role, you will be responsible for overseeing a team of project managers, strengthening project delivery practices, driving portfolio performance, and ensuring the successful execution of engineering and consulting projects serving utility clients nationwide.
You will work closely with engineering leaders, project managers, business development professionals, clients, and corporate support functions to deliver projects safely, efficiently, and profitably while supporting the continued growth of our organization. The ideal candidate combines strong project delivery expertise, people leadership, and business acumen, and measures success by how well the project managers around them perform.
Our team is passionate about re-engineering how electric utilities solve their toughest challenges. We combine innovation, technical rigor, and a client-first mindset to deliver exceptional engineering solutions across planning, design, analysis, modernization, and construction support services. This role plays a critical part in developing project management talent, improving project performance, and ensuring consistent execution across a diverse portfolio of utility projects.
The Ideal Candidate
Proven leader with experience managing project managers and delivering complex engineering, consulting, EPC, or utility infrastructure projects.
Exceptional communicator who builds credibility with clients, project teams, technical leaders, and executive stakeholders while effectively resolving challenges and competing priorities.
Strategic thinker who understands how engineering project execution, financial performance, client satisfaction, and workforce development contribute to long-term business growth.
Natural coach and mentor who develops project managers through training, honest performance feedback, and real career paths, and who builds a culture of accountability, collaboration, and client service around them.
Highly organized and proactive, with the ability to identify project risks, resource constraints, and delivery challenges before they impact clients or business performance.
What You Will Be Doing
Lead and manage the Grid Engineering Project Management Organization, providing leadership, coaching, and professional development to a team of project managers and engineers supporting power delivery projects across multiple disciplines.
Establish and maintain engineering project management standards, governance processes, tools, and best practices that promote consistent project execution and predictable delivery outcomes.
Own portfolio performance and the reporting behind it: track schedule, budget, profitability, earned value, change orders, backlog, and client satisfaction across the portfolio, surface the delivery risks and trends the numbers point to, and produce the dashboards and forecasts leadership plans against.
Partner with engineering managers and technical leaders to sequence project priorities and put the right project manager on each project and pursuit, escalating the resource conflicts that cannot be solved inside the portfolio.
Provide executive oversight for high-profile, high-risk, or strategically important engineering projects and pursuits, stepping in personally when one is in trouble.
Support project managers in contract administration, scope management, change management, financial forecasting, risk mitigation, and client communications.
Partner with business development on the technical and commercial substance of a pursuit: project approach, execution plan, schedule and cost basis, risk assessment, and capture strategy.
Lead project manager recruiting, onboarding, training, succession planning, and performance management activities to ensure the organization maintains a strong project leadership…
