About the Role

The Company is seeking a Director of Engineering & Controls to take on a pivotal business leadership role within its integration and controls division. The successful candidate will be responsible for owning the P&L of the integration business, leading engineering, controls, and panel-shop operations, and driving commercial growth. This role demands a professional with a strong background in industrial automation, controls, or systems integration, who can not only manage projects but also shape business strategy, and build long-term customer relationships. The Director will be the technical authority on control system architecture, including PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, DCS interfaces, industrial networking, and ICS cybersecurity, and will work closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure the safe, on-time, and on-budget delivery of work. Applicants for the Director of Engineering & Controls position at the company should have a proven track record of P&L ownership and commercial growth in relevant industrial sectors. Hands-on experience in PLC and SCADA-based process and manufacturing automation is essential, with a focus on oil & gas, midstream, semiconductor, or advanced manufacturing environments. The role requires a leader with a BS in Electrical or Controls Engineering, or a related field, and a PE is a plus. The ideal candidate will have a strong ability to build and lead engineering teams, and experience with panel shop or UL 508A is also advantageous. This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic individual to join a national leader in industrial electrical services and play a key role in the growth and success of the integration business.
