The Opportunity - Vice President of Construction: Electrical Contracting

We're a growing electrical contractor: high-end custom homes, commercial projects from $200K to $10M, and a thriving service division. We're preparing to double. To do it, we're hiring a Vice President of Construction to run everything on the construction side: our Residential division, our Commercial division, and Preconstruction.

This is not a figurehead role and it's not a stepping-stone you'll pass through unnoticed. You will report directly to the CEO with full authority over construction operations, including crews, schedules, staffing, and job-level decisions.

Your Responsibilities - Vice President of Construction: Electrical Contracting
  • Manage two build divisions. Ensure these divisions are hitting their numbers, managing labor budgets, schedules, and margins, reviewed biweekly with your Field Leaders.
  • Own the handoff seam. Deliver clean turnovers from estimating to the field on every job; nothing mobilizes without a signed-off buyout.
  • Protect margin. No profit fade from estimate to completion; capture change orders, never give them away.
  • Build the leadership pipeline. Develop Field Leaders and Coaches, and graduate foremen on a defined path. This is the single constraint on our growth, and it will be your legacy.
  • Own safety. Take ultimate ownership of construction safety, executed through your Field Leaders and Coaches.
  • Set the standards. Establish the operating procedures, reporting rhythms, and dashboards construction runs on.

What Success Looks Like

Your performance will be measured on a real scorecard, reviewed with the CEO, evaluating gross profit by division, GP fade, labor hours vs. percent complete, schedule adherence, backlog, turnover completeness, leaders developed per year, and recordables. If a scorecard makes you nervous, this role may not be the right fit. If it motivates you, welcome home.

Experience Required - Vice President of Construction: Electrical Contracting
  • 10+ years in construction operations, with significant electrical or MEP trade experience; multi-project or multi-division leadership required.
  • A builder of people first. You can point to foremen, supers, or PMs who lead today because you developed them.
  • Fluent in the numbers: WIP, labor productivity, buyouts, change orders, margin. You read a job cost report the way most people read a menu.
  • A servant leader with a spine. Humble enough to serve a crew, strong enough to stop a job that's going sideways.
  • Someone who exhibits high character and integrity.

Our Values: the LET'S GO Standard

Love: we serve people the way Jesus Christ served us. Excellence: our work is our worship; integrity in every detail. Trust: we do what we said, when we said. Stewardship: everything we manage belongs to God. Growth: we multiply what's entrusted to us. Ownership: no blame, no excuses, full responsibility.

What We Offer

A family-first culture that protects you from burnout instead of causing it, supported by a voluntary chaplaincy program, and the chance to build something that outlives you.

Salary & Benefits - Vice President of Construction: Electrical Contracting
  • Salary range: $175,000 to $200,000, plus performance incentives tied to your scorecard.
  • 401(k) with 4% company match.
  • Health, dental, vision, and life insurance.
  • Paid time off.
  • Paid holidays.

How to Apply

Please submit your resume along with a short cover letter (a few paragraphs is plenty) telling us about your background and what draws you to this role.
