Project Manager – Commercial Solar & Energy Construction
We are actively seeking an experienced Project Manager – Commercial Solar & Energy Construction to lead commercial solar and energy infrastructure projects throughout the Santa Fe Springs and Greater Los Angeles market.
This role is heavily focused on utility coordination, permitting, field execution, and full project ownership within a commercial solar EPC/construction environment. The ideal candidate has direct experience managing commercial solar projects in Southern California and understands how to independently drive projects from planning through closeout without requiring extensive oversight.
This is not a coordinator-style role. We are looking for a hands-on project leader who can confidently manage technically complex projects involving utilities, AHJs, subcontractors, field teams, and clients in one of the nation's most active renewable energy markets.
Responsibilities
- Manage commercial solar and energy construction projects from preconstruction through final closeout
- Oversee permitting, utility coordination, scheduling, procurement, subcontractor management, and field execution activities
- Interface directly with LADWP, Southern California Edison, AHJs, inspectors, vendors, and internal teams to maintain project momentum
- Read and interpret construction drawings, electrical plans, specifications, and utility documentation to support successful project delivery
- Lead project meetings, track schedules, and proactively resolve permitting, utility, and field issues before they impact timelines
- Coordinate field crews, subcontractors, installation teams, and vendors to ensure quality, safety, and production goals are achieved
- Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, schedules, closeout documentation, and project reporting
- Independently drive project execution while helping eliminate operational bottlenecks
- Monitor budgets, labor utilization, material flow, and overall project profitability
