Job description

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of electrical installation and infrastructure projects from initial planning through to completion. You will be responsible for managing multiple projects, ensuring they are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards. This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially aware and technically capable professional who can build strong relationships with clients, contractors, suppliers and internal stakeholders.

Your responsibilities will include preparing project programmes, budgets, procurement schedules and risk assessments, as well as monitoring progress against agreed milestones. You will coordinate design, installation, testing and commissioning activities, ensuring all works comply with relevant regulations, specifications and industry standards. You will manage subcontractors and site teams, chair progress meetings, review method statements and oversee health and safety requirements. The role will also involve tracking costs, approving variations, managing change control and providing accurate project reports to senior management and clients.

Applicants should have proven experience managing electrical projects within a construction, engineering, facilities or industrial environment, together with a relevant electrical qualification or equivalent technical experience. Strong knowledge of electrical systems, project management principles, health and safety legislation and quality assurance processes is essential. A formal project management qualification would be advantageous. You will need excellent organisation, communication and negotiation skills, alongside the ability to prioritise competing demands and resolve issues effectively. Commercial awareness, attention to detail and a proactive approach are vital, as is the ability to work independently while leading project teams towards shared goals. A full driving licence may be required, depending on project locations.
