Senior Manager, Self-Perform Electrical Construction — Lead the Crews That Build It All

McCarran, NV | Full-Time | $160,000 – $200,000

The Opportunity

This is the top field-leadership seat for self-perform electrical work across a major Nevada industrial operation. Our client, a rapidly scaling clean energy innovator, is hiring a Senior Manager of Construction to run their entire electrical self-perform organization — a team of superintendents, electrical and mechanical tradesmen, and multiple concurrent field crews. From preconstruction through start of production, including live-plant modifications under shutdown schedules, you own the safety, schedule, budget, and people.

Why You'll Love It

• Command the organization, not just a project: All Nevada self-perform electrical work rolls up to you
• Rare trades-to-leadership path respected here: They want someone who's been a tradesman AND a supervisor
• Complex, high-stakes work: Plant shutdowns, tool installs, and scope additions on operating facilities
• Nevada advantage: No state income tax, Reno-Tahoe living

What You'll Do

• Manage all aspects of the electrical and mechanical self-perform organization — construction, budget, and cash management across multiple projects
• Lead a team of superintendents and field crews across electrical and process piping scopes
• Develop schedules, project procedures, staffing plans, and equipment resources
• Conduct weekly safety checks and monthly reviews with EHS support; champion the safety program
• Assess design documents for completeness; resolve spec conflicts and scheduling issues with designers and field teams
• Identify scope conflicts and constructability issues; escalate for leadership support when needed
• Serve as the main point of contact for operations, maintenance, procurement, document control, and government agencies
• Manage plant modifications and scope additions in shutdown-schedule environments
• Approve staffing and equipment needs; advise on procurement methods and contracts
• Lead dispute resolution, project closeout, and debrief cycles
• Coach, mentor, and grow project personnel

What You'll Bring

• 20+ years of construction supervision; 15+ years managing field personnel
• 10+ years of electrical construction experience as both tradesman and supervisor
• Proven record driving trades crews to safety, schedule, and production milestones
• Experience managing superintendents and crews across electrical and mechanical scopes
• Plant shutdown scheduling and coordination experience
• Bachelor's in engineering or related field a plus; valid driver's license
• Advanced Procore, MS Office, and Excel skills; P6 or similar scheduling knowledge
• Strong risk management, delegation, and executive communication ability
• Comfort with weekend/night/on-call work and physical field demands
• A passion for sustainability
