What You'll Do


  • Own safety, schedule, cost, margin, and client satisfaction across your project portfolio
  • Lead teams through mobilization, execution, commissioning, turnover, and closeout
  • Oversee power distribution, switchgear, MCCs, instrumentation, controls, and PLC/DCS systems
  • Coordinate brownfield tie-ins, shutdowns, turnarounds, and operating-facility work
  • Drive weekly project health reviews and lead recovery planning on distressed projects
  • Coach and develop project managers, construction managers, and superintendents


What You Bring


  • 10+ years of direct oil & gas construction experience with progressive leadership responsibility
  • Experience in upstream, midstream, gas processing, refining, petrochemical, or LNG facilities
  • Strong background in industrial power distribution, instrumentation, and classified-area work
  • Experience planning brownfield work, tie-ins, shutdowns, and turnarounds
  • Ability to interpret contracts, drawings, P&IDs, estimates, and cost reports
  • Based in Houston or Odessa, TX, with regular travel to project and client sites


Preferred


  • Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
  • EPC or self-perform construction background across dispersed project portfolios
  • PMP, electrical license, OSHA 30, or NFPA 70E credentials
