Senior Electrical Estimator/Project Manager

About the role

Dairyland Energy Solutions is growing fast, and we are looking for a high-performing Senior Estimator/Project Manager who wants more than just another electrical estimating/project management position. We are searching for an entrepreneurial leader who thinks like an owner, solves problems creatively, builds strong customer relationships, and sees opportunities where others see obstacles. If you have ever thought: “I could grow this business if they would let me.” “I know there are opportunities we’re leaving on the table.” “I want more responsibility, more influence, and more reward for my results.” Then this may be the opportunity you have been waiting for to propel your career. This is not a typical PM/estimating role: at Dairyland Energy, you will have the opportunity to help lead and grow a major portion of our business. You will oversee estimating and project management activities, mentor and develop estimators, and help identify new revenue opportunities while shaping the future direction of our company. Think of it as running “your own business within our business.” We are not looking for someone to simply review plans and submit bids, but someone who can build profitable opportunities, create winning estimating strategies, develop customer relationships through strong project management, lead and mentor, drive accountability and performance, improve processes and systems, think strategically about growth, and help shape the future of Dairyland. Your ideas will not be buried in layers of organizational bureaucracy; you will have a seat at the leadership table and the ability to make a real impact.
