Market Leader â Fiber Construction Operations
We are seeking a proven Market Leader to run all fiber construction operations in a major metro market. This is a hands-on leadership role for a true driver â someone who delivers results, holds teams accountable, and ensures projects get done on time with no excuses.

This role owns day-to-day execution of Outside Plant (OSP) and Inside Plant (ISP/MXU) construction, with a heavy focus on underground fiber, HDD, and splicing operations. You will lead a multi-disciplinary field organization and be fully accountable for safety, production, and performance across the market.

This is an in-office leadership role (not remote) with regular field presence.
What Youâll Do

• 
  Lead all OSP and ISP/MXU construction activity across the market

  Drive on-time delivery of fiber build programs for major MSO clients
  
•

• 
  Set clear KPIs and hold managers accountable to schedules and results
  
• 
  Lead and develop a management team across splicing, drilling, OSP, and MXU
  
• 
  Maintain strong field presence (minimum 3 site visits per week)
  
• 
  Partner with PMO and Finance to deliver projects within target margins
  
• 
  Identify operational gaps and implement process improvements
  
• 
  Build a culture of urgency, ownership, and accountability
  

Leadership Responsibilities

• 
  Hire, train, and develop managers and field leaders
  
• 
  Direct daily workflow across multiple construction functions
  
• 
  Conduct performance reviews and manage discipline when needed
  
• 
  Build a high-performance, results-driven team culture
  

What Weâre Looking For

• 
  5+ years of fiber construction operations leadership experience
  
• 
  Strong background in underground fiber construction (OSP/ISP/MXU)
  
• 
  Prior field experience earlier in career (splicing, drilling, construction, or similar)
  
• 
  Proven ability to lead multi-layer field organizations and managers
  
• 
  Highly accountable, deadline-driven leadership style
  
• 
  Able to communicate credibly at a technical and executive level
  
• 
  Comfortable making tough decisions and pushing teams to deliver
  

Education & Requirements

• 
  Bachelorâs degree or equivalent experience
  
• 
  Valid driverâs license and clean driving record
  
• 
  Strong operational, scheduling, and problem-solving skills
  
• 
  Proficient with MS Office or Google Workspace
  
• 
  Must pass background, drug, and motor vehicle screenings
  

Work Environment

• 
  Office-based leadership role with frequent field visits
  
• 
  Local market focus with minimal travel
  
• 
  Occasional extended hours based on project demands
  

This role is ideal for a senior construction leader who thrives on ownership, urgency, and building winning operations â not just managing from behind a desk.
