PureGrid Electrical is looking for a Senior Electrical Project Manager who combines technical engineering rigor with a high-performance, entrepreneurial mindset. You are a natural leader and a master of execution who can effortlessly command complex, fast-track industrial power distribution projects from design through commissioning. You excel at acting as a single point of accountability—managing aggressive schedules, optimizing multi-million dollar budgets, and building bulletproof relationships with our general contracting partners, owners, and design teams. If you are a self-starter who thrives in a design-build environment, values safety and absolute accuracy above all else, and takes immense pride in delivering sophisticated electrical scopes on time, you’ll fit right in.

Our first core value is to treat people fairly and do the right thing. We are committed to building and sustaining a culture that supports diversity and inclusion. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment. From recruiting, training, and hiring practices to selecting our subcontractors, we understand that diversity of all those involved in the construction process enhances our ability to deliver the best solutions to our customers. We hire the best and the brightest from across the country – constructing a team of experts in architecture, design, engineering, project management, and business services.

What We Can Offer You

• Industry-leading performance-based bonus program
• Traditional and Roth 401(k)
• Tuition reimbursement for associates
• Scholarship for associates’ children up to $28,000 per child
• 1-week paid volunteer leave each year
• 100% charitable match
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage
• Paid parental leave

A DAY IN THE LIFE

• Total Project Ownership: Lead the flawless execution of large-scale, heavy industrial electrical projects, taking total accountability for safety, budget control, and schedule certainty.
• Design-Build Collaboration: Partner closely with GC project managers, in-house engineers, and owners early in the preconstruction phase to define scope, evaluate constructibility, and optimize electrical system designs.
• Financial Management: Drive profitability by managing project budgets, approving major equipment and material procurement (switchgear, transformers, etc.), forecasting cash flow, and rigorously negotiating change orders.
• Field Liaison & Support: Team up with our Field Operations Manager and on-site General Superintendents to ensure clear project plans are cleanly executed, tracking daily trade productivity and site logistics.
• Client & Partner Relations: Serve as the primary, highly responsive communication bridge between PureGrid and major general contractors like ARCO/Murray, ensuring alignment across fast-track nationwide portfolios.
• Schedule & Risk Management: Utilize advanced scheduling tools to proactively identify utility interconnection bottlenecks, long-lead equipment delays, or sequencing issues before they hit the critical path.

Necessary Qualifications

• Experience: 8–12+ years of dedicated Project Management experience within the commercial or industrial electrical subcontracting space. Proven track record managing fast-track, design-build projects is highly preferred.
• Technical Background: A deep, comprehensive understanding of medium-to-heavy industrial electrical systems, including major equipment power distribution, high/medium-voltage substations, data centers, or complex logistics/manufacturing facilities.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or a related technical business field is highly preferred.
• Software Proficiency: Expert-level capability with modern construction management software; extensive hands-on experience with Procore and Bluebeam is required.
• Leadership & Communication: Exceptionally strong written, verbal, and negotiation skills, with a pragmatic, hands‑on approach to problem‑solving and a knack for building trust with sophisticated GC partners.
• Travel & Location: Ability to travel as required to support nationwide projects during critical phases (turnover, major utility cut-overs, commissioning). Role is based out Dallas, TX.
