Quick back story. Left a company after 9 years and have given a shot with another GC and have decided to finally make an industry shift. I have 16 years total in the commercial world. Which stinks because I love building but I do have a great skillset that I feel can shift to another industry in the right organization and really shine.

Any who, I am looking for a new operational leadership role outside of the front lines of commercial construction. I do have experience in manufacturing, LEAN continuous improvement both in manufacturing and construction, safety management and lots of operational oversight and execution.

I am in the Fort Worth area. If anyone knows of any leads or has any need for solid leadership and problem solving skills, post interest or leads here. Also open to the residential world. Thanks Ags.

With your construction background, have you thought about commercial insurance? I focus on construction accounts but I had to learn from zero. You would start with a leg up knowing the industry, connections, and language.

If you like building look for a role in data centers, I am sure you could get a job with just about any of the dozens of companies building like crazy now. The industry can't keep up, there are construction, safety, PM, etc positions open everywhere.

Would you consider moving outside of Texas for work? Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, maybe West coast. I would like to talk to you either way so please DM me or leave contact email/etc.

I'll text you.

Not sure why you're gettin out of commercial construction, but data centers / mission critical is the Wild West. People hopping around from company to company, questionable work life balance, crazy high stakes deadlines, etc.
