Lead the Expansion of ERM’s Electric Transmission Advisory Practice Across Texas
ERM is seeking a senior leader with deep transmission expertise and strong utility‑sector relationships to grow and elevate our electric transmission advisory business in Texas and nationally. This is a Partner‑level opportunity to shape strategy, influence the market, and lead some of the most consequential infrastructure projects in the country.
Why This Role Matters
Transmission constraints are now one of the biggest barriers to the U.S. energy transition. Clients across Texas and the broader U.S. need advisors who can navigate siting, routing, permitting, regulatory engagement, and stakeholder complexity at scale. ERM delivers more than $250M in power‑related projects annually, and we are expanding our leadership bench to meet accelerating market demand.
This role positions you at the intersection of industry need and strategic influence—helping utilities, developers, and grid operators bring critical infrastructure online.
