Job description

VP Of Operations

The VP of Operations will oversee field delivery for an industrial electrical services platform executing heavy industrial, mission-critical, and data center projects. This position is responsible for maintaining operational consistency across a demanding project portfolio, with particular emphasis on workforce capacity, project cash flow, schedule performance, and field safety. The role carries accountability for multi-project P&L performance, field workforce development, and safety execution across complex, large-scale electrical contracts. The successful candidate will bring deep construction operations experience, a disciplined approach to project-level margin management, and a track record of developing apprenticeship-to-journeyman talent pipelines while meeting schedule, safety, and profitability objectives.

Key Leadership Mandates:

  • Multi-Project P&L Ownership: Own revenue, job-cost margin, and EBITDA across a portfolio of concurrent industrial and commercial electrical projects.
  • Workforce Pipeline Development: Build and manage an apprentice-to-journeyman-to-foreman workforce development pipeline that produces field leadership from within and reduces dependency on outside labor markets.
  • Project Cash-Flow Management: Drive billing, collections, and cost-to-complete discipline across all active projects to maintain cash flow and prevent margin erosion on long-duration contracts.
  • Safety Culture Ownership: Institutionalize an OSHA and NFPA-aligned safety culture that protects the workforce, limits liability, and meets the stringent safety requirements of industrial and data center clients.
  • Field Execution Leadership: Own project delivery from mobilization through commissioning enforcing schedule adherence, quality standards, and cost controls on complex, multi-phase electrical builds.
  • Estimating & Bid Strategy: Partner with the estimating function to ensure bid accuracy, labor productivity assumptions, and project risk pricing that protect margin at the point of award.
  • Client & GC Relationship Management: Build and maintain relationships with industrial owners, general contractors, and project owners to drive repeat work and preferred contractor status.
  • Field Leadership Development: Recruit, develop, and hold accountable foremen, superintendents, and project managers capable of running complex projects independently.

Ideal Executive Profile:

The successful candidate is a seasoned electrical contracting operations leader with a track record of managing heavy industrial, commercial, or data center electrical portfolios. You have owned multi-project P&Ls, built workforce development programs, managed project cash flow on large contracts, and led safety-first field cultures. You are a metrics-driven operator who builds field accountability systems and manages margin with discipline on complex, long-duration projects.

What Makes This Opportunity Distinct:

This role offers operational command of an established industrial electrical contracting platform with a strong project pipeline, workforce infrastructure, and client relationships in place. You will have the authority to build the field leadership team, strengthen the workforce pipeline, and drive EBITDA performance across a growing portfolio of high-complexity industrial projects. It is a high-accountability, high-reward seat for an electrical contracting leader ready to own operations.
