JOB SUMMARY

The Director, Aerial & Complex Construction is a senior leadership role responsible for solving Ezee Fiber's hardest, most non-standard construction challenges and converting each solution into a playbook that markets can execute on their own. This leader owns companywide aerial construction strategy, complex crossings and right-of-way, and the company's approach to difficult municipalities and specialized property access.

This role calls for the deepest technical construction expertise within the organization. Rather than holding standing responsibility for a market, this leader is deployed against one or two of the company's highest-priority construction challenges at a time, with priorities set directly by the SVP, Construction. Success is measured by the number of problem categories converted into published playbooks, a reduction in repeat escalations, and improvement in aerial cost, cycle time, and locate timeliness.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

Aerial Construction Strategy & Economics

• Set companywide aerial construction strategy, build plans, and economics, including criteria for aerial-versus-underground construction


• Own pole attachment and make-ready processes and manage companywide utility relationships

• Local municipal relationships, day-to-day permitting, and market-level aerial execution remain owned by the General Manager and market teams; this role builds the playbook and escalation path behind them.

QUALIFICATIONS

Education and Experience requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field plus 8-12 years of experience in OSP construction, fiber deployment, or telecommunications infrastructure, with deep, hands-on technical expertise in aerial construction, make-ready, and complex right-of-way environments


• Deepest technical construction expertise among the corporate construction organization's director-level roles


• Proven track record solving non-standard, high-difficulty construction problems, such as aerial, DOT and railroad crossings, and HOA or gated-community access, and converting solutions into repeatable playbooks
