Energy Project Solutions (EPS) is an energy consulting firm that helps partners deliver efficient, high-value projects through localized expertise and real-world insight. With more than 500 years of collective experience, our team leads complex energy developments from inception through construction, bringing deep knowledge across engineering, real estate, business development, and finance while leveraging strong relationships with developers, owners, financial institutions, and property owners nationwide.
The Construction Manager is primarily responsible for leading field construction activities for data center development projects, ensuring work is executed safely, efficiently, and in accordance with contract documents, quality standards, and project schedules. This role provides leadership and oversight throughout all phases of construction, with a strong emphasis on tenant improvement (TI), adaptive reuse, and mission-critical facility construction. The Construction Manager works closely with the Owner, General Contractor, subcontractors, architects, engineers, consultants, and vendors to coordinate daily field operations and ensure successful project execution.
