ABOUT THE POSITION:
This is a temporary position for 6 months or until the position is no longer needed.
The Temporary Substation Project Manager holds primary responsibility for supporting safe and reliable substation operations and collaborates with other teams and contractors on the design, modification, repair, and maintenance of the system.
