Summary

Site Project Director

This is a full-time opportunity with a leading industrial construction and energy solutions organization, focused on large-scale EPC and heavy industrial projects. The role centers on site-level leadership across complex construction programs, including boiler systems, steam generation, and multidisciplinary builds. The position will begin remotely and transition to an on-site leadership role in the Midwest as the project ramps.

This is a true builder role-ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity and wants to stand up and operationalize a new business line from the ground up. You'll have full ownership of execution strategy, team buildout, and site operations, acting as the senior-most leader on-site. The organization is investing heavily in this initiative, and they need a seasoned construction leader who can create structure, drive performance, and establish a high-functioning operation. This is a high-impact opportunity with strong visibility, autonomy, and the ability to shape long-term business success.

Required Skills & Experience

10+ years of experience in construction project management within heavy industrial, utility, or power generation environments
Proven experience leading largescale EPC or industrial construction projects from preconstruction through turnover
Strong background in site execution, including safety, quality, cost, and schedule management
Experience leading and developing teams of Project Managers and field personnel
Demonstrated ability to operate in fastpaced, ambiguous, or startup-like environments
Experience with contract management, procurement strategy, and subcontractor oversight
Knowledge of permitting, regulatory compliance, and construction safety standards

Desired Skills & Experience

Handson experience with boilers, steam generation systems, or related equipment
Background in boilermaking or closely related trades
Experience building new processes, workflows, or business lines
Familiarity with Primavera or similar scheduling tools
Knowledge of ASME, NFPA, and welding procedures
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (or equivalent experience)
