It builds combined-cycle, gas-fired and industrial power projects, including behind-the-meter generation for large private loads. The Project Manager owns one power project from start to finish, through startup. You are the owner's main contact and run the job day to day. This is a hands-on, working PM role, not a corporate one.

Location

Home base open; full-time travel to project sites from Texas east, as far north as Kentucky.

Work environment

You live on site for the life of the project, typically about three weeks on and then home.

Qualifications

• 5+ years managing heavy industrial construction projects.
• Power generation project experience: combined-cycle, simple-cycle, CT, HRSG, cogeneration or BOP.

• Preferred: Combined-cycle or behind-the-meter / data-center power experience; Open-shop (non-union) project experience; Primavera P6 proficiency.
