The Construction Advisor is responsible for improving constructability and execution readiness on large-scale electrical transmission and distribution projects. This role partners with field leadership, customer engineering, and project teams to identify construction risks early, align designs with safe and efficient means and methods, and support consistent delivery in accordance with applicable utility requirements and regulatory standards. The Construction Advisor provides constructability reviews, execution planning support, and field-driven technical guidance, including evaluation of construction sequencing, access/ROW constraints, outage and switching considerations, material handling and logistics, and work packaging.

With a secondary focus on Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC), the role supports inspection readiness, documentation, and corrective actions to ensure work meets customer specifications and company standards.

Constructability & Execution Planning

• Lead constructability reviews for assigned work, identifying scope gaps, safety concerns, and field constraints; recommend practical adjustments to improve execution.
• Support execution planning by validating construction sequencing, crew approach, equipment needs, and work packages; highlight critical-path constraints and mitigation actions.
• Evaluate resource and equipment plans (crews, specialty tools, cranes, access equipment) to ensure alignment with selected means and methods, site conditions, and constructability constraints.
• Verify field conditions against plans and specifications; maintain redlines, as‑builts, and constructability notes to support accurate design updates and closeout documentation.
• Identify and communicate constructability‑driven risks (access/ROW, permitting, outages/switching windows, sequencing conflicts, material lead times) and support timely resolution with internal and customer teams.
• Support constructability‑driven alternatives and value improvements (means/methods, phasing, material substitutions where permitted) by evaluating productivity, safety, and quality impacts.

Customer Relationship Management

• Coordinate directly with customer engineering and project teams to align design intent with field conditions, constructability constraints, and execution sequencing.
• Participate in customer meetings to review constructability, construction sequencing, outage/switching considerations, access/ROW constraints, and field conditions; drive timely decisions and issue resolution.
• Provide constructability input during planning and design reviews, including development of RFIs, field clarifications, and redlines to support safe, practical, and efficient construction execution.
• Build and maintain strong working relationships with key customer contacts at AEP, Dominion Energy, and other utility partners operating within the division's service area.
• Represent Service Electric Company professionally in all customer interactions, reinforcing the organization’s standards for safety, quality, and field execution.
