About the Role

The Company is seeking a VP of Preconstruction to spearhead the development and implementation of preconstruction strategies for a diverse portfolio of projects. The successful candidate will be instrumental in the early-stage planning process, leading the team in defining the scope, technical approach, and execution strategy. This role is pivotal in bridging the gap between business development and project delivery, with a focus on what is being built, how it will be built, the associated costs, and the overall risk management. The VP of Preconstruction will be responsible for coordinating engineering inputs, owning the estimating process, driving commercial proposals, and leading value engineering and risk assessment to ensure project deliverability and protect margins. Applicants for the VP of Preconstruction position at the company should have a minimum of 10-15 years' experience in project delivery, construction management, or preconstruction, with at least 5 years in a leadership role. A strong background in energy infrastructure, particularly in BESS, energy storage, or distributed energy, is highly preferred. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of EPC delivery models and contract structures, and be adept at building realistic CPM schedules that consider supply chain and construction constraints. The role requires a strategic thinker who can support vendor and subcontractor strategy, and who is capable of driving the preconstruction function to ensure the successful execution of a rapidly expanding pipeline of projects.
