Job description

Relationship Development | Senior Delivery Consultant in Energy Sector

🌊 Lead Complex Hydro Generator Installations from the Front Line

We are seeking an experienced Hydro Site Manager to lead generator assembly and mechanical installation activities on a major hydroelectric project in Virginia. This is a hands‑on leadership role for someone who understands large hydro generator systems, site execution, safety, and quality—not a desk‑only position.

If you’ve led generator installation teams, managed supervisors on‑site, and taken ownership from planning through handover, this is a strong long‑term opportunity.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

Operational Leadership

• Lead end‑to‑end generator assembly and auxiliary installation activities
• Develop detailed activity planning, sequencing, and resource loading
• Own site execution, progress tracking, punch lists, and handover readiness
• Prepare and review project‑specific erection procedures
• Lead one critical generator assembly directly on large hydro projects
• Manage risk assessments, action plans, and NCRs through closure
• Ensure all tools, precision instruments, and calibration certificates are valid
• Coordinate site testing, documentation, reporting, and field service reports
• Maintain strict adherence to EHS, quality, and contractual requirements

People & Site Management

• Lead and coordinate a team of supervisors and site personnel
• Ensure proper staffing, punctuality, discipline, and performance
• Provide on‑the‑job training and mentorship to supervisors
• Maintain strong working relationships with the client and subcontractors
• Represent the site team with home office and internal stakeholders

Quality, Safety & Performance

• Enforce EHS standards and stop work if safety or quality is compromised
• Plan and conduct audits, track action plans, and ensure closure
• Monitor materials, preservation, shortages, and site logistics
• Ensure on‑time delivery, quality workmanship, and client satisfaction

What We’re Looking For

• 10+ years of hydroelectric generator experience (supervisory or site leadership)
• 5+ years hands‑on mechanical installation experience (shaft lines, turbines, generators, windings)
• Degree in Engineering or Construction Management (preferred)
• Strong experience with:
• Precision mechanical measurements & tools
• Heavy industrial / hydro equipment
• Excellent communication, leadership, and problem‑solving skills
• Comfortable working in field‑based, physically demanding environments
• Mechanical precision tools & measurements
• Reading drawings, manuals, and technical specifications
• Physical work including climbing, lifting (up to 35 lbs), and uneven terrain
• Sick Pay: 1 hour per 40 hours worked (≈ 6.5 days/year)

Why This Role?

• Lead a high‑visibility hydro project from the ground up
• True ownership of generator execution, not just oversight
• Work with experienced teams on complex, large‑scale equipment
• Long‑term project stability starting January 2025

If you’re a hydro professional who thrives in site leadership, generator assembly, and hands‑on execution, apply here or message me directly to discuss details.

• Seniority level: Mid‑Senior level
• Employment type: Contract
• Job function: Engineering, Project Management, and Manufacturing
• Industries: Services for Renewable Energy, Electric Power Generation, and Utilities
