Department Overview

The Electric Compliance Assurance department is part of the Electric Risk & Compliance organization, where together we will embed compliance and risk in all that we do and achieve regulatory outcomes that support the business’ needs. The work of this department is critical in our efforts to find compliance challenges and identify areas of risk so that we can fix them. The main functions of this new department are identifying areas of compliance risk and opportunities to mitigate those risks, including through incident reporting and investigations, overseeing Electric Operations and Power Generation CAP, and validating the controls on the organization.

PG&E is providing the salary range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting. This compensation range is specific to the locality of the job. The actual salary paid to an individual will be based on multiple factors, including, but not limited to, specific skills, education, licenses or certifications, experience, market value, geographic location, and internal equity. Although we estimate the successful candidate hired into this role will be placed towards the middle or entry point of the range, the decision will be made on a case-by-case basis related to these factors.

A reasonable salary range is :

  • Minimum Base Salary (Bay Area)            $136,000.00
  • Mid Base Salary (Bay Area)        $184,000.00
  • Maximum Base Salary (Bay Area)           $232,000.00
  • Minimum Base Salary (California)         $129,000.00
  • Mid Base Salary (California)      $175,000.00
  • Maximum Base Salary (California)        $220,000.00

Position Summary

PG&E is seeking an experienced business professional to lead the Electric Incident Investigations (EII) Team. The EII team is responsible for reporting Electric Incidents (EIRs) to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), investigating EIRs and areas of compliance risk to determine the cause and any corrective or preventive measures to mitigate reoccurrence.

As the Manager of Incident Investigations, you oversee investigations tied to safety events, operational failures, and potential regulatory risk. You ensure that every investigation, from Electric Incident Reports (EIRs) to major operational events, is handled with consistency, objectivity, and rigor. With deep technical and regulatory expertise, you bring a structured approach to root cause analysis, corrective action development, and defensible documentation that strengthens PG&E’s safety culture and compliance posture. Your work reinforces PG&E’s commitment that Everyone and Everything is Always Safe, advancing enterprise learning, transparency, and continuous improvement across investigations.

Location of this position is flexible within PG&E service territory and will require occasional travel to other areas around PG&E’s service territory. This position is hybrid, working from your remote office and assigned office based on business needs.
