Due to continued growth in Electrical Distribution Services, we are seeking a Project Manager to lead multi-medium-scale MV/LV projects, including retrofits, modernizations, and critical maintenance jobs. The role requires full ownership of assigned projects from customer handover to invoicing and payment collection with a clear focus on margin protection, digital execution, and customer satisfaction.

• Use digital platforms for project creation, documentation, contract validation, and invoicing (e.g., my Schneider, Salesforce, ERP).

• Validate and monitor project and contract creation via Salesforce and digital sales portals, ensuring structured handover from Tendering.
• Collaborate with tendering and sales teams to review digital contract inputs and confirm execution feasibility.
• Update key milestones, payment terms, and progress in real-time via Schneider digital tools to maintain transparency and performance visibility.

• Develop and manage project-specific HSE plans (PPE compliance, risk assessments, training, etc.).
• Identify risks early and implement mitigations; elevate when necessary to avoid schedule or financial impact.
• Ensure compliance with Schneider Electric quality standards and regulatory requirements.

• Act as the primary customer interface during project execution.
• Communicate proactively on progress, changes, and risks.
• Capture and record customer feedback via satisfaction surveys at project close-out.
