Original job description

At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.

Your impact

The energy industry, particularly transmission grids, is undergoing major changes to accommodate for regional and global decarbonization and energy transition targets. In addition, and with the increasing number of large loads such as Data Centers, the role of transmission planners is more important than ever in shaping the grid of the future.

As the Manager - Utility Transmission Planning, you will lead a team of transmission planning and studies engineers working closely with a variety of clients, mainly focusing on T&D utilities and IOUs but with from time to time supporting non-utility clients as well. You are expected to provide team technical supervision at a senior technical level liaising between your direct reports and internal Jacobs PMs and/or external clients. The successful candidate is also expected to support our Jacobs' business development process and proposals/bidding efforts.

This position is flexible anywhere in North America. However, preference would be given to candidates located in Northeast including New York, Boston, Toronto or Philadelphia. #epjobs #naepjobs

Here's what you'll need

Advanced degree in Electrical/Power Systems Engineering, from a recognized institution.
Minimum 10 years of technical industry experience with transmission planning and power system studies (either utility or consulting).
Strong background with North American standards of practice such as NERC, FERC, and ISO interconnection practices.
Team leadership skills with effective interpersonal, communication and presentation skills.
Ability and willingness to travel within North America.

Ideally, You’ll Also Have

Experience with large loads planning and interconnection such as data centers.
Professional Engineer (PE or PEng) License.

We value collaboration and believe that in-person interactions are crucial for both our culture and client delivery. We empower employees with our hybrid working policy, allowing them to split their work week between Jacobs offices/projects and remote locations enabling them to deliver their best work.

Your application experience is important to us, and we’re keen to adapt to make every interaction even better. If you require further support or reasonable adjustments with regards to the recruitment process (for example, you require the application form in a different format), please contact the team via Careers Support.
