Project Manger-Lighting,Architectural & Façade

An electrical indoor/outdoor façade lighting construction project manager oversees the design coordination, installation, and delivery of all architectural lighting (interior, exterior, and façade) on a project, ensuring aesthetics, safety, and performance goals are met on time and within budget. The role combines electrical project management with specialist knowledge of lighting products, controls, and façade integration.

​

Key responsibilities

Manage the full lifecycle of indoor, outdoor, and façade lighting packages, from concept review and design coordination through installation, aiming, programming, testing, and handover.

​

Coordinate with architects, façade consultants, MEP engineers, and lighting designers to translate lighting concepts and shop drawings into buildable, code-compliant solutions.

​

Plan and control scope, schedule, and budget for lighting works, including material submittals, mock-ups, procurement, logistics, and subcontractor management.

​

Oversee site execution for wiring, mounting details, brackets, power supplies, and control networks (DMX, DALI, 0–10 V, smart controls), ensuring correct installation and protection of luminaires.

​

Design and technical duties

Review and comment on lighting layouts, façade details, load schedules, control schematics, and fixture schedules to ensure technical feasibility and maintain design intent.

​

Evaluate and propose alternative luminaires, optics, color temperatures, and control strategies to meet performance, energy, and budget targets without compromising visual impact.

​

Ensure compliance with electrical and building codes, lighting standards, IP/IK ratings, glare and uniformity requirements, and any local regulations for façade illumination and light spill.

​

Coordinate aiming, scene setting, and commissioning with lighting programmers and suppliers, and document final settings, as-built drawings, and O&M manuals.

​

Site and stakeholder coordination

Lead progress and coordination meetings focused on lighting scope, resolving clashes with structural elements, glazing systems, signage, and other trades.

​

Monitor installation quality and safety practices for high-level façade access (BMU, scaffolds, rope access) and outdoor works in public or traffic-exposed areas.

​

Act as primary contact for the client and lighting vendors, managing expectations, approvals, mock-up reviews, night-time focus sessions, and punch-list closure.

​

Commercial and documentation tasks

Prepare and track budgets, quotations, and variations for lighting scope, including design changes, added features, and control upgrades.

​

Manage orders, delivery schedules, warranties, defects, and replacements for luminaires, drivers, and control gear, maintaining accurate project documentation.
