About the Opportunity

Titus Talent Strategies is hiring a Project Manager on behalf of our client. We’re partnering with a rapidly growing electrical contractor in Cary, NC that’s looking to add a Project Manager to their team. If you’re seeking long-term growth, strong leadership, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on high-visibility projects, this role is worth exploring.

Position Overview

The Project Manager position is designed to provide a high level of leadership, oversight, and assistance for two electrical projects at a time. The intent of the position is to ensure that the Project Superintendent and/or Foremen have the support they need to make every area of a project successful.

The Project Manager will report to the Operations Manager and work in tandem with Project Superintendents and/or Foremen. All administrative support staff on the assigned project will indirectly report to the Project Manager.

Key Responsibilities

Project Initiation & Close-Out

• Initiate kick-off and close-out meetings with the Project Superintendent, Estimating Department, and other staff.

Project Planning & Documentation

• Create and manage project-specific guides such as schedules, budgets, billing reports, and other tools to track progress.
• Verify and evaluate that the project estimate is within tolerance and designed for success.

Vendor & Subcontractor Management

• Obtain, direct, assist, and advise subcontractors and vendors as needed.

Scheduling & Resource Coordination

• Maintain the project schedule and ensure milestones are met.
• Monitor and approve the scheduling, delivery, and pick-up of materials, tools, and equipment.

Financial Oversight

• Attend subcontractor and financial meetings as needed.

Communication & Collaboration

• Serve as a liaison between the general contractor, construction manager, office, and field staff.

Safety Oversight

• Enforce safety rules and regulations and verify proper paperwork and inspections.

Team Leadership

• Coach and train Assistant Project Managers to prepare them for greater responsibility.

Risk Management

• Mitigate risk by anticipating potential issues and working with field staff to address them.

Additional Duties

• Perform other responsibilities and duties as necessary.

Must Have Qualifications

Nice to Have Qualifications

• Experience creating schedule of values and job budgets

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive salary

• Strong internal promotion culture and long-term advancement opportunities

Why This Role Stands Out

• Unmatched Growth & Expansion: New headquarters + planned satellite offices in Greensboro and Fayetteville.
• Clear Career Path: Transparent advancement to Senior Project Manager and Branch Manager roles.
• People-First Culture: Leadership genuinely cares about employee well-being and professional success.
• Investment in Development: Highly supportive Operations Manager committed to coaching and mentorship.
• High-Impact Work: Lead meaningful, community-focused commercial and educational projects with a respected local brand.
