- Bachelor’s degree preferred; equivalent field experience accepted.
- Must be able to meet the company’s driving requirements.
Responsibilities
- Lead day-to-day execution of utility facilities construction projects from kickoff through closeout.

- Manage scopes such as roofing, HVAC, painting, interior renovations, electrical upgrades, and site work across active facilities.
- Coordinate with utility operations teams to manage site access, outages, and ensure all facilities are safely restored to full operational condition after construction activities.
- Maintain accurate schedules, budgets, field reporting, and project documentation, reflecting real-time changes in status and scope.
- Review contractor pricing, change orders, and field conditions to protect cost discipline and avoid scope drift.
- Support procurement and bid processes, including scope development, contractor selection, and vendor performance management.
- Conduct site walks and inspections to verify quality, confirm compliance, and identify issues early.
- Drive closeout deliverables including punchlists, turnover documentation, and final acceptance.
Benefits
