Introduction
At Gandy Installations, we are looking for a leader to help grow and scale our electrical division.
This is not a role for someone looking to simply manage the day-to-day and punch a clock. We are looking for someone who wants to build a department, mentor people, improve systems, drive profitability, and help lead a growing company forward.
You will oversee a team handling residential, commercial and industrial electrical services and installations, as well as electrical support for our HVAC installations, including heat pumps, air conditioning systems, and electric tank replacements.
You’ll work closely with our leadership team, office staff, HVAC department, dispatch, and technicians to help create a stronger, more scalable electrical department built around accountability, teamwork, customer experience, and operational excellence.
If you are someone who enjoys building people, improving processes, solving problems, and leading with integrity, we would like to hear from you.
