Description The role has two primary objectives. First, grow enclosure commissioning and consulting as a business: win work with owners, architects, and contractors, deliver the work you win, and hire the team to do more of it. Second, make our own construction jobs better: work with our construction and construction quality teams to bring enclosure expertise onto the projects we build, so enclosures are right the first time.
This is not a seat on someone else's team. We want an enclosure professional who is as energized by winning the work as by doing it: someone who will make a name in their market, bring in the clients, deliver the projects, and hire and grow the team around them. You will have our client relationships, our multidisciplinary teams, and a fast-growing construction business across Federal, Aviation, Manufacturing, Healthcare, Mission Critical, and Higher Education markets to grow quickly.

- Hands-on knowledge of stand-alone enclosure testing equipment and the ability to evaluate and troubleshoot enclosure systems.
- Experience developing and managing work plans, schedules, and budgets.
