Job description

Construction Manager Utility-Scale Solar PV / BESS Projects TexasLocation: Texas
Position Type: Project-Based / Site-Based
Industry: Renewable Energy / Utility-Scale Solar PV / BESS
Position Summary
Basis North America is seeking an experienced Construction Manager with proven and verifiable experience managing utility-scale Solar PV and/or BESS projects in Texas.
This role requires direct field construction management experience on renewable energy projects, including contractor oversight, site coordination, schedule control, change management, and coordination with EPC contractors, Texas utilities, TDUs, and local/state authorities.
Candidates must have hands-on leadership experience in Solar PV utility-scale projects, preferably with integrated Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
Mandatory Requirements
Candidates must have:
  • Minimum 10 years of relevant construction management experience in utility-scale renewable energy projects.
  • Proven experience managing utility-scale Solar PV projects of 50 MW or larger.
  • Direct construction supervision experience on Solar PV and/or BESS projects.
  • Experience with BESS construction, integration, commissioning, or energization is strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated experience coordinating with:
    • EPC Contractors
    • Texas TDUs
    • Texas utilities
    • Local and State AHJs
    • Permitting and interconnection stakeholders
  • Strong experience in:
    • Schedule control
    • Contractor oversight
    • Site coordination
    • Change management
    • Construction progress reporting
    • Field issue resolution
    • QA/QC coordination
    • Safety and permit coordination
Texas-Specific Experience Required
Candidates must be able to demonstrate direct project experience in Texas, specifically related to renewable energy construction, permitting, interconnection, utility coordination, TDUs, and AHJ interface.
Experience simply being based in Texas is not sufficient. The candidate must have worked on relevant Texas-based Solar PV and/or BESS projects.
Important Candidate Fit Requirement
This position is specifically for a Solar PV / BESS Construction Manager.
Candidates with only electrical, industrial, substation, high-voltage, or general construction backgrounds will not be considered a strong match unless they also have direct utility-scale Solar PV and/or BESS construction management experience.
Substation experience is valuable, but it does not replace the required Solar PV/BESS utility-scale construction management background.
Key Responsibilities
  • Manage daily construction activities for utility-scale Solar PV and/or BESS projects.
  • Oversee EPC contractors and subcontractors to ensure compliance with project requirements.
  • Monitor project schedule, construction progress, and field execution.
  • Coordinate with Texas TDUs, utilities, AHJs, EPC teams, engineering teams, and project stakeholders.
  • Support permitting, interconnection, commissioning, and energization coordination.
  • Manage field changes, RFIs, construction issues, change orders, and documentation.
  • Ensure construction activities are performed safely, efficiently, and according to project specifications.
  • Lead site coordination meetings and provide daily/weekly progress reporting.
  • Support QA/QC activities and ensure construction quality requirements are met.
Preferred Experience
  • Utility-scale Solar PV projects in Texas.
  • Integrated Solar PV + BESS projects.
  • Commissioning and energization support.
  • Owners representative or Owners Engineer experience.
  • Experience working with EPC contractors on renewable energy projects.
  • Familiarity with Texas renewable energy project permitting and utility interconnection processes.
Required Profile
The ideal candidate is a field-driven Construction Manager with a strong renewable energy background, capable of leading construction execution on large-scale Solar PV and BESS projects in Texas.
The candidate must demonstrate a clear record of successful construction management in Solar PV projects of 50 MW or larger and must be comfortable coordinating with EPC contractors, Texas utilities, TDUs, AHJs, and project stakeholders.
How to Apply
Qualified candidates are invited to submit their resume for review.
Please ensure your resume clearly highlights:
  • Solar PV utility-scale project experience
  • BESS project experience, if applicable
  • Project MW size
  • Texas project experience
  • Utility / TDU / AHJ coordination
  • EPC contractor oversight
  • Construction management responsibilities
  • Commissioning or energization involvement
  • Change management experience
