Acc Coach Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

W.G. Yates & Sons Construction Company is seeking a proven, field-proven General Superintendent / Construction Manager Power Generation to lead overall jobsite construction execution for our Yates Industrial Division.

The Construction Manager is responsible for the total on-site execution of medium-to-large power generation projects (normally up to 5 million work hours), ensuring all safety (HSSE), quality, cost, schedule, client interface, and facility turnover goals are achieved.

Because Yates Industrial operates under an 80% Direct Hire / 20% Subcontractor execution model, this leadership role requires deep expertise in managing direct-hire craft personnel (boilermakers, millwrights, pipefitters, ironworkers, electricians), driving craft productivity, and executing complex power plant technology including Combined-Cycle Gas Turbines (CCGT), Air-Cooled Condensers (ACC), Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG), Industrial Boilers, and Balance of Plant (BOP) systems.

Key Responsibilities & Principal Duties

• Accountable for all on-site direct-hire construction operations, managing craft superintendents, craft foremen, and field discipline leaders.
• Oversee execution of heavy rigging, turbine/generator setting, boiler tubework, high-pressure steam piping installation, structural steel erection, and heavy civil foundations.
• Monitor daily craft labor productivity, crew sizing, equipment utilization, and work sequencing to ensure work is performed within baseline budget and schedule constraints.
• Provide technical constructability input during front-end engineering design and preconstruction planning phases.

• Direct and coordinate specialty subcontractor operations (e.g., non-destructive testing/NDT, refractory, specialized insulation, electrical testing/commissioning, and heavy haul logistics).
• Ensure all subcontractors fully comply with Yates procedures, quality standards, safety expectations, and integrated schedule logic.

• Actively build and sustain an exceptional health, safety, security, and environmental (HSSE) culture that makes safety and environmental awareness a natural part of daily work.
• Lead by example in "Safety Leadership," holding all site personnel, craft labor, and subcontractors accountable for unsafe acts and coaching for continuous safety improvement.

• Implement and enforce the Project Execution Plan (PEP) across all site disciplines.
• Rigorously control scope creep by identifying changed field conditions early, ensuring scope changes are documented, priced, and approved before performing out-of-scope work.
• Track productivity trends, analyze cost/schedule deviations, and implement aggressive turnaround/workaround plans to keep projects on track.
• Maintain chronological project records, including meeting minutes, daily logs, and written confirmations of client instructions.

• Serve as the primary on-site client interface, promoting an atmosphere of open and honest communication with owner representatives.
• Oversee system completion, punch-list execution, pre-commissioning, startup support, and final facility turnover to the client.

• Bachelors Degree in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a closely related field is preferred (equivalent direct-hire power management experience may substitute).
• Minimum 10+ years of heavy industrial construction experience, with at least 5+ years in a senior management role (General Superintendent or Construction Manager).
• Required: Proven management experience on direct-hire power generation projects.
• Preferred: Hands-on experience with Air-Cooled Condensers (ACC), Simple Cycle and Combined Cycle power facilities.

• In-depth ability to read, interpret, and execute technical specifications, process flow diagrams, P&IDs, blueprints, and engineering/architectural drawings.
• Comprehensive understanding of ASME boiler/piping codes, AWS welding standards, and OSHA heavy industrial construction regulations.
• Strong knowledge of project controls, labor cost reporting, and Primavera P6 construction schedule logic.

• Excellent leadership, verbal/written communication, and conflict-resolution skills.
• Proven track record of managing open-shop direct-hire personnel or multi-trade union labor in fast-paced turnaround/greenfield environments.
• Strict commitment to Yates Core Values, Code of Conduct, and Safety Standards.

• Location: Assigned to project jobsites throughout North America, with base support from the Yates Industrial Division in Birmingham, Alabama.
• Physical Demands: Walking active job sites, standing, climbing scaffolding/ladders, inspecting elevated structures, operating equipment, and lifting up to 25 lbs.
• Environment: Outward field conditions in varied weather environments (heat, cold, dust, active plant operations).

• HSSE & Safety Metric: Zero lost-time incidents and industry-leading Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR).
• Direct-Hire Productivity: Performance Factor (PF) achieved at or better than 1.0 against baseline labor estimates.
• Schedule & Milestone Compliance: On-time completion of major outage tie-ins, steam blow, mechanical completion, and commercial operation date (COD).
• Budget & Scope Discipline: Execution within approved financial budget, zero unapproved scope growth, and prompt change order resolution.
