Current needs include Construction Managers with an electrical background for data center electrical gear in the Central Main Distribution Area, as well as Construction Managers with experience supporting Water Treatment Plant, Wastewater Treatment Plant, Fire Protection Station, Mechanical Yard, and Electrical Yard scopes.

Ideal candidates will have familiarity with large equipment and complex building systems such as chillers, compressors, pumps, air handlers, switchgear, PLCs, and related utility infrastructure. Commissioning, startup, turnover, or integrated systems testing experience is a strong plus.

WWPS is also seeking a Night Shift Construction Manager to provide field oversight, contractor coordination, safety leadership, and schedule support during off shift construction activities.

Project locations include:

• Stamford, TX

Reporting to the Senior Construction Manager and Project Management leadership, this role ensures general contractors and trade partners deliver to the highest standards of safety, productivity, and technical excellence.

The Construction Manager acts as the Owner’s on site representative, managing the daily flow of field activities, driving accountability among contractors, identifying and mitigating risk early, and ensuring delivery of mission critical infrastructure on schedule and within scope.

Local candidates are preferred; however, highly qualified candidates open to relocation or travel work with per-diem will be considered.

Responsibilities: Field Leadership & Execution

• Serve as the primary on site field leader representing the Owner’s interests, ensuring construction activities are executed in alignment with project goals, schedule milestones, and quality standards.

• Provide field oversight for assigned discipline scopes, which may include electrical distribution, central main distribution areas, mechanical yards, electrical yards, water treatment systems, wastewater treatment systems, fire protection infrastructure, and major equipment installation.
• Support construction execution involving large scale data center equipment and systems such as chillers, compressors, pumps, air handlers, switchgear, PLCs, and related utility infrastructure.
• Drive a culture of behavioral based safety. Conduct daily safety walks and collaborate with general contractors to uphold a world class safety culture.

• Ensure proper communication and escalation of key field issues to project management and executive leadership.

Schedule & Productivity Management

• Monitor construction progress daily against the general contractor’s integrated P6 schedule to validate that work aligns with critical path activities.
• Track and report weekly field productivity metrics such as labor units, installed quantities, weld inches, linear footage, equipment setting progress, and discipline specific installation milestones.
• Lead or participate in 3 week look ahead planning sessions to verify resource alignment, identify constraints, and develop recovery plans when needed.
• Validate schedule updates, milestone reporting, and progress claims submitted by contractors for accuracy and completeness.
• Support day shift or night shift execution as assigned, ensuring field continuity, contractor accountability, and clear handoff between shifts.

Quality Management & Technical Oversight

• Conduct routine inspections to verify compliance with contract documents, drawings, specifications, quality requirements, and project execution plans.
• Manage first in place reviews for major installations to establish quality benchmarks.
• Support the development and implementation of testing and inspection programs, coordinating with third party testing agencies for soils, concrete, equipment installation, and other materials or systems as required.
• Identify, document, and drive resolution of nonconformance issues to maintain overall build quality.
• Partner with electrical, mechanical, utilities, fire protection, and commissioning stakeholders to ensure installations meet project requirements and are ready for startup, testing, and turnover.

Risk Identification & Issue Resolution

• Evaluate project activities continuously to identify risks to safety, schedule, cost, quality, or system readiness.
• Develop and implement mitigation strategies in coordination with project leadership.
• Track and manage field issues, RFIs, submittals, and contractor constraints to ensure timely resolution in accordance with the overall project schedule.
• Support the review and validation of contractor change orders, ensuring cost and schedule impacts are documented and justified.

Coordination & Stakeholder Interface

• Partner closely with the Owner’s Project Management, Design, and Commissioning teams to align construction execution with design intent and operational requirements.
• Facilitate effective coordination between general contractors, subcontractors, vendors, and multiple trades to prevent scope conflicts and ensure uninterrupted progress.

• Provide weekly summary packages to project leadership detailing productivity metrics, milestone status, top risks, and safety highlights.
• Maintain comprehensive documentation of meetings, photographs, and progress metrics as part of project reporting.
• Support executive-level reporting by supplying accurate, data-driven updates from the field.

• Collaborate with the Commissioning Agent to ensure startup, testing, and integrated systems commissioning activities are properly supported by general contractors and trade partners.
• Monitor system turnover sequencing to achieve timely mechanical and electrical completions by area and by system.
• Support construction readiness for commissioning activities involving electrical distribution, switchgear, PLCs, chillers, compressors, pumps, air handlers, fire protection systems, water treatment systems, wastewater treatment systems, and related infrastructure.
