  • Represent the company at the highest levels, strengthening relationships with owners, GCs, design partners, and trade leadership
  • Drive operational excellence by elevating processes, safety culture, and project delivery standards across the organization


Qualifications:

  • A track record of delivering $150M electrical scopes in healthcare, industrial, or mission‑critical environments
  • Strong financial and business acumen with experience managing multiple large projects simultaneously
