About the Opportunity

Elite Executive Solutions is conducting a confidential search for an accomplished Director of Prefabrication to lead and scale prefabrication operations for a growing electrical construction organization.

Based in Reno, Nevada
, this is a high-impact leadership opportunity for an experienced prefabrication executive who understands how to transform prefab into a strategic operational advantage.

The Director of Prefabrication will be responsible for the overall strategy, development, execution, and continued expansion of the organization's prefabrication capabilities. This individual will work closely with executive leadership, operations, preconstruction, project management, field leadership, and other key stakeholders to improve productivity, consistency, quality, and project execution.

We are looking for more than someone who can manage a prefab facility.

We are looking for a leader who can build, scale, innovate, and create a best-in-class prefabrication operation capable of supporting significant organizational growth.

Prefabrication is becoming increasingly important to the future of electrical construction.

As projects become larger and more complex and skilled labor remains one of the industry's greatest constraints, sophisticated prefabrication can dramatically improve productivity, safety, quality, schedule performance, and predictability.

This position provides an opportunity to lead that transformation.

The successful Director will have the opportunity to:

• Develop and execute the organization's long-term prefabrication strategy.
• Build and scale prefabrication capabilities to support continued company growth.
• Influence how projects are planned and executed from preconstruction through field installation.
• Introduce new technologies, processes, equipment, and production methodologies.
• Improve labor productivity and reduce field installation requirements.
• Build and develop a high-performing prefabrication organization.
• Partner directly with executive and operational leadership.
• Establish measurable standards for quality, production, cost, and performance.
• Help create a scalable prefabrication platform capable of supporting complex construction projects.

For a leader who has successfully built or transformed prefabrication operations, this represents an opportunity to make a significant organizational impact.

• Provide strategic leadership for all prefabrication operations and initiatives.
• Develop and execute a comprehensive prefabrication strategy aligned with company growth and operational objectives.
• Lead the continued development, expansion, and optimization of prefabrication facilities and capabilities.
• Partner with preconstruction, estimating, operations, project management, VDC/BIM, and field leadership to identify prefabrication opportunities early in the project lifecycle.
• Establish standardized processes for identifying, designing, planning, producing, tracking, delivering, and installing prefabricated assemblies.
• Drive continuous improvement in production efficiency, labor productivity, quality, safety, and cost.
• Develop production planning, scheduling, capacity-management, and workflow systems.
• Establish KPIs and performance metrics for prefabrication operations.
• Monitor production output, labor performance, quality, cost, schedule, and operational efficiency.
• Evaluate and implement technology, automation, equipment, tooling, and manufacturing methodologies that improve productivity.
• Partner with VDC/BIM teams to strengthen constructability planning and digital-to-fabrication workflows.
• Work closely with project and field leadership to ensure prefabricated assemblies meet installation requirements and project schedules.
• Develop standardized assemblies, kits, workflows, and best practices that can be replicated across projects.
• Improve material flow, inventory management, logistics, staging, and delivery to project sites.
• Establish quality-control processes and production standards.
• Recruit, develop, mentor, and lead prefabrication managers, supervisors, production personnel, and support teams.
• Develop training and career-development programs for prefabrication personnel.
• Evaluate future facility, equipment, technology, staffing, and capital…
