TekCom Resources, Inc.
Chicago, IL

We’re seeking a high-impact executive leader to oversee Site Development and Construction Services for one of the nation’s top wireless communications infrastructure providers. This role carries full P&L responsibility for a $100M+ business unit—driving growth, optimizing operations, and ensuring best-in-class performance across all phases of wireless network development and construction delivery.
The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of the end-to-end lifecycle of telecom construction —from raw land and zoning through full turnkey builds and on-air delivery.
Key Responsibilities

  • Own full P&L responsibility; drive profitable growth, cost control, and margin expansion across all service lines.
  • Partner with executive leadership to define business strategy and execute nationwide expansion across carrier and tower markets.
Site Development & Construction Operations
  • Lead all aspects of site acquisition, zoning, permitting, and construction delivery for new builds, modifications, and upgrade programs.
  • Oversee general contractor and subcontractor performance, ensuring adherence to safety, quality, and schedule.
  • Standardize construction and field operations across multiple regions to deliver consistent, high-quality results.
  • Manage the full project lifecycle—from preconstruction and site readiness through closeout and on-air acceptance.
Business Growth & Client Engagement
  • Develop and expand strategic relationships with carriers, tower owners, and utilities to capture new build and upgrade opportunities.
  • Lead business development initiatives that strengthen market presence and diversify service offerings.
  • Drive innovation through technology-enabled project management and advanced delivery models.
Leadership & Culture
  • Build and mentor high-performing teams across site development, construction management, and field operations.
  • Foster a culture centered on safety, accountability, and operational excellence.
  • Champion collaboration between regional and corporate teams to enhance execution and client satisfaction.
Industry & Market Leadership
  • Represent the organization with senior customers and at key industry events.
  • Serve as a visible subject-matter expert in telecom construction and infrastructure development.
Qualifications
  • 15–20 years of progressive leadership in telecom construction, site development, or infrastructure services.
  • Proven success managing $100M+ P&L and large-scale field operations.
  • Strong knowledge of tower builds, zoning/permitting, construction management, and network deployment.
  • Exceptional financial acumen, client management, and negotiation skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead geographically distributed teams.
  • Bachelor’s degree required; MBA preferred.
  • Willingness to travel nationwide as needed.
Why Join Our Client
  • Strategic Leadership: Shape the direction of a nationally recognized infrastructure services organization.
  • High Impact: Influence the success of multi-market construction programs nationwide.
  • Growth Platform: Lead expansion within one of the fastest-growing segments of the telecom industry.
