Hybrid in Washington DC-Baltimore area

If the following job requirements and experience match your skills, please ensure you apply promptly.

Our client is a rapidly growing infrastructure services organization supporting high-visibility telecom and mission-critical buildouts across the region. This is an opportunity to step into a senior leadership role with strong visibility, meaningful ownership, and a direct impact on projects that power modern connectivity. The right person will help drive complex data center and structured cabling initiatives forward while partnering with experienced field and operations teams in an environment that values accountability, collaboration, and long-term growth.

This Role Offers

  • Competitive base salary plus performance-based bonus opportunity
  • Strong benefits package including medical coverage, paid time off, holidays, retirement plan with company match, and monthly vehicle and phone allowances
  • High-impact project portfolio spanning data centers, commercial buildings, education environments, transportation sites, and other complex facilities
  • A stable, growth-oriented business with an established reputation and a strong pipeline of work
  • A hybrid work model with a mix of home office, project site, and team collaboration time

Focus

  • Lead multiple telecom and data center infrastructure projects from turnover through final acceptance, balancing schedule, cost, quality, and client communication
  • Turn drawings, specifications, budgets, and handoff materials into clear execution plans that define labor strategy, procurement timing, sequencing, and installation milestones
  • Partner closely with field leadership and technical support teams to keep fiber, copper, pathway, and related low-voltage scopes moving safely and efficiently
  • Own project reporting, cost tracking, forecasting, and KPI visibility, identifying risk early and keeping leadership informed on job health
  • Manage client-facing and internal documentation, including RFIs, submittals, change requests, shop drawing coordination, and closeout deliverables
  • Support material planning and vendor coordination so the right products arrive at the right time for each phase of work
  • Build strong working relationships with general contractors, customers, and internal stakeholders across fast-paced construction environments
  • Help deliver projects that meet schedule expectations, protect margin, and create a strong customer experience from kickoff through completion

Skill Set

  • 5 or more years of project management experience in telecom, structured cabling, low-voltage, or related construction environments
  • Hands-on knowledge of fiber and copper infrastructure, structured cabling systems, and data center or other technically demanding project settings
  • Strong ability to read plans, specifications, and construction documents, then translate them into executable field strategies
  • Experience managing reporting, forecasting, schedules, budgets, and cost performance across multiple active projects
  • Comfort working with Excel, project tracking tools, and construction documentation platforms such as Bluebeam or similar systems
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to coordinate effectively across field teams, leadership, subcontractors, and customers
  • Ability to thrive in a hybrid role that includes regular site presence across the Washington DC-Baltimore market

Preferred Background

  • Experience in mission-critical or data center environments
  • Exposure to public sector, education, transportation, or other complex commercial projects
  • Familiarity with change management, closeout documentation, shop drawing review, and customer handoff processes
  • Relevant professional certifications within the telecommunications, network infrastructure, or low-voltage systems field are considered beneficial.
