ACCIONA is a global leader in sustainable infrastructure and renewable energy, delivering innovative, forward-thinking solutions in over 40 countries. We’re proud to be shaping some of the most complex and transformative infrastructure projects in North America.
In partnership with Metrolinx, ACCIONA is playing a key role in the design and construction of the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension (ECWE), a 9.2-kilometre westward addition to Toronto’s Line 5 light rail transit network. This major infrastructure project includes seven new stations and installation of rail and systems under a progressive design-build model.
Beyond its technical scope, the ECWE project represents a significant investment in sustainable urban mobility, expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 5,800 tonnes annually and eliminate over 6.5 million vehicle trips each year when combined with the full Line 5.
This is a unique opportunity to join a dynamic, multidisciplinary team on a complex, high-value project that supports long-term regional growth and environmental sustainability. If you're ready to make a meaningful impact and advance your career with a global infrastructure leader, we encourage you to apply and grow with us.
The Electrical Construction Project Manager is responsible for the end-to-end delivery of electrical infrastructure for one or more transit stations delivered by Trillium Rail Partners within a progressive design-build environment.
The role ensures that station electrical systems - including power distribution, emergency power, lighting, grounding, communications interfaces, and traction power interfaces - are fully integrated into the broader rail and systems architecture including Stations, Rail & Systems (SRS), Traction Power Substations (TPSS), and Advanced Train Control (ATC) interfaces.
The position is accountable for technical coordination, electrical systems integration, constructability, and performance compliance from design development through commissioning and revenue service readiness.

Support commissioning activities and ensure completion of as-built documentation, O&M manuals, and turnover packages required for revenue service readiness.
Work Conditions:
The position is primarily site based along the ECWE alignment at the assigned station. Frequent travel between the station, corridor work fronts, and field offices is required. Work may involve extended hours, night shifts, or weekend operations to accommodate schedule and safety requirements.
Required Skills and Competencies
Preferred 7+ years of progressive experience in electrical construction within ICI, heavy civil, or transit infrastructure projects.
Experience delivering electrical infrastructure within complex station or facility environments.
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, or related discipline; equivalent trade certification and experience.
Strong knowledge of power distribution systems, electrical installation practices, and electrical codes applicable to transit infrastructure.
Experience coordinating electrical systems with mechanical, architectural, and rail systems interfaces.
Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder coordination skills.
Strong analytical and organizational skills with emphasis on safety, quality, and schedule performance.
Experience working in collaborative delivery models involving multiple contractors and stakeholders.
