Full job description
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.
What You’ll Drive
Lead major electric transmission projects from concept through construction.
Guide regulatory strategy, including CPCNs and related approvals.
Expand ERM’s market influence with utilities, developers, and transmission owners.
Mentor and grow high-performing, multidisciplinary teams across Texas and the U.S.
Advance ERM’s thought leadership in transmission siting, compliance, and grid modernization.
Build and deepen strategic client relationships that drive long-term growth.
What You’ll Bring
Required
15+ years in transmission siting/routing, environmental permitting, impact assessment, or regulatory strategy.
Strong relationships with utilities, developers, or transmission owners.
Experience in the Texas market (ERCOT/PUCT expertise strongly preferred).
Demonstrated leadership delivering complex capital projects.
Commercial and business development acumen.
Preferred
Experience with ERCOT market design, interconnection strategy, or PUCT testimony.
Background in grid modernization, long‑range transmission planning, or strategic advisory.
Key Responsibilities
Grow a portfolio of transmission clients aligned with ERM’s business strategy.
Lead multidisciplinary teams to deliver high‑impact consulting services.
Generate multi-million‑dollar revenue through siting, NEPA/EA/EIS, routing, permitting, and compliance work.
Contribute to ERM’s North America leadership team and strategic agenda.
Champion ERM’s technical excellence and thought leadership in the power sector.
Why ERM?
As a Partner, you’ll gain:
Equity ownership with significant financial upside.
A seat at the table to influence ERM’s strategic direction.
A platform to amplify your voice as a thought leader in the power sector.
Access to a global network of experts and resources to scale your impact.
For the Partner, Electric Transmission & Distribution position, the anticipated annual base pay is $175,000 – $220,000 (USD). Actual pay will depend on factors such as education, experience, skills, location, performance, and business needs. In some cases, pay may fall outside this range. This role may be eligible for bonus pay (casual and fixed term/flex force employees are not bonus eligible).
We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including paid time off, parental leave, medical, dental, vision, life, disability, AD&D insurance, 401(k) or RRSP/DPSP, and other applicable benefits to eligible employees.
Note: Bonuses, commissions, and other forms of additional compensation are not guaranteed and subject to the sole discretion of ERM and its policies and procedures.
Who We Are:
As the largest global pure play sustainability consultancy, we partner with the world’s leading organizations, creating innovative solutions to sustainability challenges and unlocking commercial opportunities that meet the needs of today while preserving opportunity for future generations.
At ERM we know that creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive work environment is an essential part of making our company a great place to build a career. We also see our diversity as a strength that helps us create better solutions for our clients. Our diverse team of world-class experts supports clients across the breadth of their organizations to operationalize sustainability, underpinned by our deep technical expertise in addressing their environmental, health, safety, risk and social issues. We call this capability our “boots to boardroom” approach for its comprehensive service model that allows ERM to develop strategic and technical solutions that advance objectives on the ground or at the executive level.
Please submit your resume and brief cover letter.
