Project Manager (Lighting & Solar) - Bilingual (Spanish)

Talent Logistix is seeking a Project & Operations Manager for the operational hub of our commercial lighting and solar installation business — responsible for shepherding every project from signed contract to final closeout. Managing a high-volume portfolio of simultaneous jobs, this person ensures work orders are fully prepared, field crews have what they need, customers are kept informed, and no project falls through the cracks. This role demands exceptional organizational discipline, clear and confident communication across multiple stakeholders, and the ability to pivot quickly when field conditions change. Because our crews are predominantly Spanish-speaking, bilingual fluency in English and Spanish is strongly preferred and will be a significant advantage in this role. This position will have the following responsibilities including, but not limited to:

Project Kickoff & Planning:

Conduct pre-installation calls and meetings with customers to confirm scope, site conditions, access requirements, and scheduling expectations.

Active Project Oversight :

Manage a concurrent portfolio of 15-30+ active projects across various stages of completion, maintaining real-time awareness of each project's status.

Dispatch & Schedule Development :

Collaborate with the Director of Operations each week to build the master installation schedule — assigning crews to jobs based on project priority, crew availability, geography, and material readiness.

Change Management & Issue Resolution :

Identify scope changes in the field and initiate the change order process promptly, securing customer approval before additional work is performed.

Project Closeout :

Coordinate punchlist walks with the Quality & Safety Manager and verify all outstanding items are resolved prior to billing submission.

Warranty & Service Coordination :

Log and track all inbound warranty and service requests; validate warranty eligibility against project records and manufacturer terms.

Sales & Backlog Coordination :

Participate in weekly production meetings with sales team members to review backlog status and ensure sold projects are moving through the pipeline without delay.
