Responsibilities:
  • Provide executive oversight of large mission-critical data center projects
  • Lead project strategy, financial performance, and risk management
  • Oversee contract administration, including negotiations, terms, subcontracts, and purchase agreements
  • Direct full project schedules and ensure all critical milestones are achieved
  • Deliver monthly financials, owner billings, projections, and risk assessments at a senior leadership level
  • Drive project safety, budget adherence, profitability, and long-term client satisfaction
  • Guide preconstruction planning, conceptual budgeting, value engineering, and design coordination
  • Identify and resolve constructability challenges early
  • Maintain oversight of project budgets, insurances, bonds, and complex change orders
  • Develop and mentor project teams, supporting organizational growth and succession planning
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for major clients, representing the company with professionalism and authority
  • Competitive senior-level compensation package
  • Stable organization with a strong data center backlog
  • A respected team known for technical excellence
