Electrical Group Manager

A well-established multidisciplinary consulting engineering firm is seeking an Electrical Group Manager to lead its Electrical Department in Wall Township, NJ.

This is not a senior designer role. This is a leadership position — responsible for technical excellence, team development, client satisfaction, and financial performance.

If someone wants to move from “Senior Engineer” to true department leadership, this is that step.

The Opportunity

You will lead and grow the Electrical Group while collaborating with civil, structural, mechanical, and other disciplines across diverse projects.

This role blends:

  • Technical oversight

  • Financial accountability

  • Staff mentoring

  • Client engagement

  • Department standards leadership

You will influence both projects and people.

Core Responsibilities

  • Define electrical project scopes and contribute to proposal development and budgeting

  • Oversee and update department standards, specifications, and technical details

  • Provide quality control reviews at multiple project stages

  • Mentor and coach electrical team members

  • Support performance evaluations and professional development

  • Coordinate staffing needs with Project Managers

  • Ensure financial and technical success of projects

  • Maintain high client satisfaction

  • Provide subject matter expertise to clients

  • Represent the firm at client meetings and technical conferences

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (or related field)

  • 10+ years of electrical design experience in consulting engineering and/or construction

  • Professional Engineer (PE) license in New Jersey and New York

  • Strong experience leading multidisciplinary design projects

  • Demonstrated ability to manage and mentor technical staff

  • Client-facing experience with strong communication skills

What We’re Looking For

  • A strategic thinker who understands both engineering and business

  • Someone comfortable being accountable for department performance

  • A leader who can elevate standards, processes, and team capability

  • An engineer who wants influence — not just production responsibility

Why This Role Stands Out

  • True department leadership role

  • Influence over standards and technical direction

  • Financial and operational responsibility

  • Direct impact on team development

  • Strong collaboration across disciplines

  • Established firm with long-term stability
