About the job

alphax is seeking a Project Manager with experience in commercial electrical construction for its Detroit, Michigan office. This position focuses on managing large-scale healthcare and institutional projects for a self-performing electrical contractor. The role covers all phases, from preconstruction through final closeout, with an emphasis on leadership and hands-on project execution.

Collaboration is central to this position. The Project Manager will work closely with field teams, general contractors, and internal departments to meet project schedules and budget goals. Support comes from estimating, BIM, and leadership teams, but the Project Manager is ultimately responsible for project performance and profitability.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead commercial electrical projects from preconstruction through completion.
  • Coordinate field execution with electricians, foremen, subcontractors, and internal teams.
  • Engage with general contractors, inspectors, and stakeholders to manage schedules and resolve issues.
  • Review and interpret electrical drawings, specifications, and construction documents.
  • Oversee project schedules, RFIs, change orders, and financial tracking.
  • Work with estimating and preconstruction teams to align project scope and set-up.
  • Partner with BIM teams to ensure design intent is executed in the field.
  • Monitor profitability, identify risks, and implement solutions.
  • Maintain accurate project documentation and reporting within internal systems.
