ELECTRICAL PROJECT MANAGER
About the role
We’re partnering with a leading commercial electrical contractor in Kansas City that delivers high-impact projects across the metro—skyline-defining commercial builds, major campuses, and community infrastructure. They’re hiring an Electrical Project Manager to take full ownership of $5M+ commercial electrical construction projects from precon through closeout. This is built for a PM who likes accountability, fast-moving job sites, tight coordination, and running work the right way—schedule, budget, safety, and quality all in your hands. This role is open due to growth. A PM who wants ownership (not a “paper PM” role) who can run the full lifecycle: budget, schedule, buyout, change orders, closeout, a builder who likes being plugged into the field and keeping jobs moving, and a PM who wants to be with a contractor that’s growing (not backfilling a failing team).
