Role Overview
The Project Manager owns the delivery of residential and commercial solar projects from the moment they enter project management through to installation.

This is an ideal opportunity for an early-career project manager looking to build hands-on experience in the clean energy sector.

Project Status & Pipeline Blockers
- Track the status of all projects in the pipeline and provide regular status reporting to leadership
- Identify blockers such as missing documentation, design issues, permitting or utility delays, and equipment constraints, and drive them to resolution
- Escalate risks and unresolved issues to the appropriate stakeholders in a timely manner
- Contribute to pipeline reviews and help prioritize projects to maintain workflow efficiency
Change Orders
- Manage the change order process from request through execution
- Assess the impact of proposed changes on scope, design, cost, and schedule
- Coordinate with sales, engineering, and operations to review, approve, and document changes
- Communicate changes clearly to customers and internal teams and ensure all required actions are completed before installation proceeds
Process Improvement
- Identify recurring delays or bottlenecks and recommend improvements to project workflows
- Support the development of project management standards, templates, and reporting tools
