Electrical Project Manager

Electrical Project Manager (Commercial Projects) – Covering South of England

Let's cut to it.

We're looking for an Electrical Project Manager who gets things done. Not someone who hides behind spreadsheets or blames the programme, someone who owns the job from day one to final handover.

If you know how to take control of a project, drive standards on site, and deliver results without drama, keep reading.

The Role

You'll be running electrical installation projects end-to-end. That means planning, coordinating, pushing progress, and making sure nothing slips.

You won't be babysat. You'll be trusted to lead.

You will:

Own projects from pre-construction through to completion
Build and drive programmes that actually reflect reality
Keep labour, materials, and subcontractors aligned and productive
Stay on top of costs, variations, and commercial performance
Lead site teams with clarity and authority
Work closely with main contractors and other trades-no silos, no excuses
Ensure everything is delivered safely, compliantly, and to a high standard

What Success Looks Like

Projects delivered on time
Budgets protected (or improved)
Sites running efficiently and safely
Clients confident and informed
Problems solved early-not escalated late

What You Bring

Proven track record managing electrical installation projects
Strong commercial awareness-you understand cost, value, and margin
Solid knowledge of commercial electrical systems and site operations
The ability to juggle multiple projects without dropping standards
Clear, direct communication-you say what needs to be said

The Must-Haves

Experience leading electrical projects in a construction environment
Strong organisational and planning skills
A proactive, problem-solving mindset
Ability to perform under pressure and hit deadlines

Bonus Points (Not Deal Breakers)

NVQ Level 3 Electrical (or equivalent)
SMSTS / SSSTS
ECS / CSCS

The Bottom Line

This role is for someone who takes ownership.

If you're the type who steps up, takes control, and delivers-this is a strong opportunity to make an impact.

If you need constant direction or avoid tough decisions, this won't be the right fit
