Job Description
Manager of Project Management
\n
Austin, TX
\n
\n
I'm working with a growing power infrastructure organization seeking a Manager of Project Management to lead a team responsible for the delivery of major capital construction projects.
\n
\n
This is a senior leadership opportunity focused on developing Project Managers, improving project execution, and providing oversight across a portfolio of complex infrastructure projects from early-stage planning through construction and completion.
\n
\n
Key Responsibilities
\n
• Lead, develop, and mentor a team of Project Managers responsible for major capital projects
\n
• Provide portfolio-level oversight across project schedules, budgets, forecasting, risk, and overall delivery
\n
• Support contracting strategies, procurement, contractor selection, negotiations, and change management
\n
• Partner closely with engineering, construction, operations, commercial teams, and external contractors
\n
• Identify project risks, remove delivery roadblocks, and ensure projects remain on schedule and within budget
\n
• Drive consistency and best practices across project management processes, reporting, and project controls
\n
\n
What We're Looking For
\n
• Previous management experience leading Project Managers or project delivery teams
\n
• Strong background delivering large-scale construction or capital projects within the power, energy, utility, EPC, or related infrastructure sectors
\n
• Experience managing project budgets, schedules, contractors, procurement, and commercial risk
\n
• Strong understanding of construction project execution from planning through commissioning or handover
\n
• Ability to operate at both a strategic and hands-on level within a growing organization
\n
• Strong leadership, communication, commercial, and stakeholder management skills
\n
Direct transmission and distribution experience is beneficial but isn't essential — the priority is finding an experienced project management leader with a strong construction background within the broader power and energy industry.
\n
\n
What's on Offer
\n
• Opportunity to lead and develop an established Project Management function
\n
• High visibility across major capital infrastructure projects and senior leadership
\n
• Ability to influence how projects are structured, managed, and delivered across the organization
\n
• Long-term career growth within a growing power infrastructure business
\n
• Austin-based position with occasional travel to project sites
