Overview

A long-established industrial equipment manufacturer with more than half a century of history has opened a new, heavily automated production campus of roughly 800,000 square feet on Chicago’s southwest side. The volume and complexity of electrical work at the site has grown to the point that it needs a dedicated leader, so this position is new.

It is a working manager seat. You will lead a small group of engineers and supervisors, guide the electricians indirectly, and still be the strongest technical resource in the building on electrical and controls.
