The Opportunity
This is the top field-leadership seat for self-perform electrical work across a major Nevada industrial operation. Our client, a rapidly scaling clean energy innovator, is hiring a Senior Manager of Construction to run their entire electrical self-perform organization — a team of superintendents, electrical and mechanical tradesmen, and multiple concurrent field crews.
