• Collaborate with estimating, operations, and execution teams to ensure proposals reflect real-world excellence in safety, quality, and schedule performance.
• Maintain a 24-month rolling opportunity funnel by tracking industry intelligence on outages, budgets, and competitor activity.
• Deliver on ambitious revenue and margin goals while creating long-term mutual value for customers and the company.

• Existing network of relationships with turnaround and capital project decision-makers in the Midwest.
• Strong negotiation, communication, and executive presence-able to engage credibly from the field to the boardroom.
• Demonstrated ability to identify and pursue new opportunities, challenge the status quo, and create innovative solutions that deliver measurable value.
