Accacia is an AI-enabled platform helping real estate and infrastructure companies achieve net-zero goals. As we scale our Solar EPC (Ground & Rooftop) vertical, we are looking for a Project Manager to own end-to-end execution of industrial, commercial and residential solar plants - from handover of the signed order to commissioning and final client sign-off. You will lead site execution, manage vendors and subcontractors, drive material planning and procurement follow-up, and take full responsibility for project timelines, budgets, quality and safety.
The role also owns statutory approvals - DISCOM net-metering, CEIG/Electrical Inspectorate clearance and subsidy documentation - and reports project health to management through structured weekly MIS. This is a hands-on role with regular travel to project sites across Punjab, Haryana and NCR.
Key Responsibilities

- Site Execution: Manage day-to-day execution at multiple sites through site engineers, supervisors and subcontractors; resolve technical and manpower bottlenecks on the ground.
- Engineering Coordination: Review and approve layouts, SLDs, structure drawings, cable sizing and earthing design with the design team; ensure execution matches approved drawings.
- Procurement & Material Management: Raise material requirements against BOQ, follow up with the purchase team and vendors on deliveries, and control site inventory,
wastage and reconciliation.
- Vendor & Subcontractor Management: Finalise scope with civil, structure and electrical contractors, monitor their progress and quality, and certify their bills.
- Statutory Approvals: Own the net-metering application and DISCOM liaison (PSPCL/HSPCL/DHBVN/UHBVN or equivalent), CEIG/Electrical Inspectorate drawing approval and inspection, and subsidy/PM Surya Ghar documentation where applicable.
- Quality & Safety: Enforce QAP and EHS standards on site - work-at-height, electrical isolation and PPE compliance - and conduct pre-commissioning checks, IR/earth-pit testing and performance verification.
- Commercial Control: Track project cost against budget, flag variations and additional scope in time, and coordinate milestone-linked billing and client payment follow-up.
- Client Management: Act as the single point of contact for the client during execution; share progress updates, manage expectations and complete handover with as-built documents, O&M; manuals and warranty papers.
- Reporting: Submit weekly project MIS to management covering physical progress, cash flow, risks and delay reasons.
