Project Leader - Electrification; Texas Region

The HT Group has partnered with a dynamic and growing Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) company specializing in providing innovative electrification solutions to the Upstream, Midstream, and Downstream oil and gas services industry, Industrial, and data center/crypto mining industries. They are committed to delivering sustainable and efficient power solutions that enhance their clients operational performance. Their delivery is based off agility, technical expertise, and dedication to client satisfaction.

The Project Leader (Sr. Director or VP-level) is a key leadership role responsible for the successful execution of all field-based electrification projects across their clients. This role will be an individual contributor; the individual will ensure projects are completed safely, efficiently, and within budget and schedule. The VP of Field Services will be a hands-on leader, contributing directly to project execution while also providing strategic direction.

This will support both the Dallas and Houston areas so it will require at least 50% road travel between both markets.
