  • Evaluate team members to cultivate organizational talent and expertise in necessary areas. Provide supervision and guidance to engineers and technicians across various locations.
  • Collaborate with other departments on cross-functional technical and business teams to achieve departmental and corporate objectives.
  • Assist in monitoring and forecasting the departmental budget.
  • Establish and manage departmental goals and metrics while promoting a strong safety culture. Strive for innovation and ensure PPL remains aligned with industry trends.
  • Select, train, mentor, and develop team members to create motivated and effective teams. Assess workload and resource needs to recommend additional support as necessary.
  • Conduct research and analysis on technical and business plans, designs, proposals, projects, or strategies, providing insights and recommendations to support departmental objectives.
  • Promote standardization and consolidation across the PPL enterprise where feasible, leveraging innovative solutions and implementing robust change management strategies.
  • Lead storm restoration efforts in designated command centers and participate in training and drills related to storm restoration.
  • Ensure compliance with FLSA wage and hour regulations and monitor adherence to safety protocols for positions involving driving.
  • Perform additional duties and initiatives as assigned by senior leadership.

Qualifications:
Education & Experience:

Preferred Qualifications:

Proven ability to provide technical direction to both technical and non-technical personnel.
