About Matthew Cardin

As a results-driven Senior Project Manager, I drive energy infrastructure projects through strategic leadership, cross-functional collaboration, and a commitment to safety, quality, and regulatory compliance. I possess a proven expertise in managing complex capital projects, optimizing grid reliability, and delivering innovative solutions in electrical transmission and distribution, oil and gas, and renewable energy sources. I specialize in driving high-stakes projects from inception to completion while ensuring safety, quality, and compliance. For example, I’ve directed $60 million in annual capital projects aimed at restoring and upgrading transmission line structures at United Utilities. My leadership has consistently ensured projects are delivered on time, within budget, and in alignment with strict safety and quality standards.Furthermore, at TRC Companies, I managed environmental permitting efforts for large-scale energy projects, including electrical substations, gas pipelines, gas meter stations, and solar developments in New Hampshire. By navigating complex federal, state, and local regulations, I ensured projects stayed compliant, avoided delays, and maintained operational efficiency.Here is a snapshot of key achievements- Partnered with cross-functional engineering teams (transmission line, substation, telecom, and commissioning engineers) to oversee transmission upgrades, motorized switch replacements, and substation improvements- Revitalized the state land and public waterbody licensing process for Eversource by collaborating with the New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission, reducing licensing timelines by 75%; supporting the timely delivery of critical transmission upgrades- Provided environmental permitting support for over 50 transmission and distribution capital improvement projects in New Hampshire, facilitating over $300-$500M in capital improvement expenditures.If you are looking for someone who is skilled in cross-functional team leadership, stakeholder engagement, and innovative solutions to modernize and optimize power systems, then email me: m••••••••@gmail.com Key Skills: Energy Infrastructure Development | Cost and Schedule Management | Risk Mitigation | High-Powered Team Development | Safety Program Implementation | Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)
