  • Assist with early-stage project execution to ensure safety, quality, schedule, and cost expectations are met.
  • Help implement company standards, processes, and reporting in newly launched markets.
  • Identify operational risks early and support leadership with practical mitigation strategies.

  • Hands-on knowledge of telecom construction operations (OSP, wireless, fiber, or related infrastructure).
  • Experience participating in pre-bid activities, site walks, or proposal support.
  • Strong understanding of field operations, subcontractor coordination, and project execution.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, growth-oriented environments.
  • Extensive travel required (up to 70-80%) across the United States, including short-notice trips to support client meetings, site walks, and program launches.

Benefits
  • Health Insurance plans (health, dental, vision);
  • Whole Life Insurance;
  • 401k Plan;
  • PTO/Paid Holidays;
  • Great Work Environment;
  • Career Advancement Opportunities.
