Job Type
Full-time
Description
Cascade Process Controls is hiring a Powerline / Lineman Division Manager that owns the full P&L, safety performance, and growth of Cascade's powerline services division. This role builds and runs distribution and overhead/underground line construction crews serving utilities, electric cooperatives, midstream operators, and industrial end users.
The Manager is accountable for crew productivity, equipment utilization, customer relationships, and margin - and for integrating powerline work with Cascade's existing Instrumentation & Electrical, Fiber/HDD, Line Service, and Valve Service lines.
This is a builder role. The successful candidate will stand up crews, systems, and customer relationships - not simply administer an existing book of business.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Division P&L and Growth
? Own revenue, gross margin, and EBITDA performance for the powerline division; deliver against annual budget and quarterly forecasts
? Build and execute the division growth plan: target accounts, service territory expansion, and crew scaling
? Price and approve estimates for unit-price, time-and-material, and lump-sum work; own bid strategy and margin discipline
? Negotiate and manage MSAs, rate sheets, and change orders with utilities, cooperatives, and industrial customers
? Manage subcontractor selection, pricing, and performance
Operations and Execution
? Plan and dispatch line crews across multiple concurrent jobs and basins; own scheduling, manpower loading, and crew-to-job fit
? Direct overhead and underground distribution construction: pole setting and framing, conductor stringing and sagging, transformer and switchgear installation, terminations, sectionalizing, grounding, guying and anchoring, and right-of-way work
? Oversee energized and de-energized work planning, switching and tagging coordination with utility system operators, and storm and emergency restoration response
? Own job costing discipline - daily production reporting, unit tracking, timesheet accuracy, and job cost variance review
? Drive billing velocity: timely field ticketing, customer sign-off, and coordination with accounting to protect DSO
? Manage fleet and equipment strategy for digger derricks, bucket trucks, pullers and tensioners, reel and wire trailers, and support vehicles - including utilization, maintenance, DOT compliance, and buy/rent decisions
Safety and Compliance
? Own division safety performance; enforce Cascade's safety program in the field with zero tolerance for shortcuts
? Ensure compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.269 and 1926 Subpart V, NESC, NEC, and applicable utility client work rules
? Lead job hazard analyses, tailgate briefings, minimum approach distance enforcement, rubber goods and dielectric equipment inspection and testing programs, and grounding procedures
? Conduct incident investigations, root cause analysis, and corrective action follow-through
? Maintain DOT/FMCSA compliance for CDL drivers, hours of service, and vehicle inspections
? Maintain client safety prequalification standing (ISNetworld, Avetta, Veriforce) and EMR performance
Workforce Development
? Recruit, hire, and retain journeyman linemen, apprentices, equipment operators, and groundmen in a tight labor market
? Establish and administer an apprenticeship and progression program with defined step criteria and pay bands
? Set performance expectations, conduct reviews, and manage discipline and terminations in coordination with HR
? Build a bench of foremen and general foremen capable of running work without daily oversight
Business Development
? Develop and maintain relationships with electric cooperatives, investor-owned utilities, municipal utilities, EPCs, and industrial and midstream customers
? Identify and pursue electrification work tied to Cascade's existing customer base - compression station power, ESP and artificial lift loads, facility feeds, and behind-the-meter interconnection
? Represent Cascade in prequalification packages, RFP responses, and customer business reviews
? Provide market intelligence on pricing, competitor activity, and capacity constraints

? Working knowledge of OSHA 1910.269, 1926 Subpart V, NESC, and NEC as applied to distribution construction
