Job description

We're looking for a Senior Project Manager who knows how to run a project like a business.

Not someone who just attends meetings, updates a schedule, and tells us everything is tracking.

We want someone who knows their numbers. Someone who understands self-perform construction and can look at labor, production, cost, schedule, and contract exposure and tell us where a project is going before it gets there.

At Enervia, our Senior PMs own the commercial and financial performance of utility-scale solar projects from turnover through closeout.

You’ll have experienced Construction Managers and field leadership running the work in the field. Your job is to make sure the entire project performs.

What you'll own

• Budget, forecasting, Cost-to-Complete, WIP, billing, and cash flow
• Self-perform labor, production, productivity, and installed quantities
• Contracts, change orders, RFIs, and commercial correspondence
• Procurement, subcontractors, and major material coordination
• Project schedules, risks, and recovery plans
• Owner relationships and progress meetings
• Change-order pricing, negotiation, and recovery
• Ultimately: the financial and contractual success of your projects

Who we're looking for

You have experience managing utility-scale solar, heavy electrical, substation, or similar construction projects, and you've had real exposure to a self-performing contractor.

That part matters.

We don't simply subcontract the work and manage it from a spreadsheet. We put our own people and equipment in the field, which means our PMs need to understand production, labor productivity, quantities, equipment utilization, and how today's field performance affects tomorrow's forecast.

You should be comfortable with Excel, forecasting, production tracking, scheduling, contracts, and difficult conversations.

A degree isn't what will get our attention. Knowing how to build, lead, think ahead, and own the outcome will.

Where you'll work

We're flexible.

This position can be remote, provided you're willing to travel when the job requires it. That could mean our office, project sites, client meetings, or wherever you need to be to lead effectively.

We care a lot more about results than where your laptop happens to be sitting.

Why Enervia?

We're growing, we're ambitious, and we're building a company where talented people can have a meaningful impact without getting buried under layers of corporate bureaucracy.

If you're looking for a job where someone hands you a checklist and tells you exactly what to do every day, this probably isn't it.

If you want real ownership, direct access to leadership, challenging projects, and the opportunity to help build something, we should talk.

Come help us build Enervia.
