Position Summary
The Project Manager is responsible for owner-side oversight and delivery of assigned Commercial & Industrial (C&I) distributed generation projects, including rooftop solar, carport solar, and behind-the-meter Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).

This role supports the Director / Area Manager of Projects and serves as the day-to-day owner’s representative for individual projects, ensuring EPC partners and vendors execute in accordance with contractual requirements, safety standards, schedule commitments, and customer operational constraints. This role differs from an EPC Project Manager in that it focuses on owner-side oversight, coordination, and risk tracking, rather than directing daily construction means and methods.

The position emphasizes coordination, execution discipline, and risk tracking rather than self-perform construction.


Key Responsibilities
  • Act as the Owner’s Representative for assigned C&I solar and BESS projects from Notice to Proceed through PTO  
  • Coordinate daily and weekly execution activities with EPCs, installers, and vendors  
  • Serve as the primary construction-phase interface with host customers and site facility teams  
  • Track and manage project schedules to achieve Substantial Completion, PTO, and revenue milestones  
  • Identify and escalate risks related to site conditions, roofing, utilities, AHJs, and BESS fire/life-safety requirements  
  • Support change management by reviewing change requests, schedule impacts, and cost exposure  
  • Coordinate with Engineering and third-party reviewers on design clarifications and constructability  
  • Monitor quality and safety performance at occupied and operating sites  
  • Support inspections, commissioning activities, and closeout documentation  
  • Maintain accurate project documentation and reporting for internal stakeholders  

Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (or equivalent experience)  
  • 4–8+ years of experience delivering C&I solar, distributed generation, or similar construction projects  
  • Experience with rooftop and/or carport solar; familiarity with behind-the-meter BESS preferred  
  • Working knowledge of EPC contracts, construction schedules, and permitting processes  
  • Ability to manage contractors and customer stakeholders concurrently  
  • Owner-side or EPC project management experience preferred  

Core Competencies
  • Strong organizational and coordination skills  
  • Customer-focused communication and problem-solving  
  • Risk awareness and escalation mindset  
  • Ability to operate effectively across multiple active projects  

Compensation & Benefits
  • Base Salary: $115,000 – $145,000, commensurate with experience    
  • Annual Performance Bonus: Target 10–20% of base salary, tied to project schedule, quality, safety, and PTO performance
  • Long-Term Incentives: Eligibility for discretionary or deferred incentives depending on company structure  
  • Benefits: Competitive medical, dental, and vision coverage; 401(k); paid time off; holidays  
  • Additional Perks: Flexible work environment, travel reimbursement, and professional development support

Location
Candidate is ideally in the East Coast region of US with a preference for New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, or New Hampshire. This role is flexible to be remote with travel as necessary.  

Flexible work from home options available.
