The Opportunity
Pernix International (chatgpt://generic-entity?number=1) is seeking a world-class Project Executive to lead the delivery of complex, high-value construction programs across international markets, with a focus on mission-critical data centers and large-scale infrastructure.
This is not a traditional project role. This is a strategic leadership position for a builder-operator—someone who can seamlessly move between boardroom strategy and field execution, drive performance across regions, and elevate both people and projects.
You will play a critical role in shaping how Pernix executes globally, influencing operational excellence, client partnerships, and long-term growth.

Strategic Growth & Market Expansion
    •    Partner with leadership on pursuits, business development, and international expansion strategy.
    •    Contribute to winning work in emerging and high-growth markets, particularly in infrastructure and data centers.
Risk & Governance
