## Job description

We are looking for a Director of Construction – Israel to lead a team of project managers delivering large-scale solar, wind, and energy storage projects across Israel. The role requires multidisciplinary management expertise spanning infrastructure, engineering, finance, and commercial aspects.

### Responsibilities

- Lead the team of project managers responsible for large-scale solar, wind, and energy storage projects, from financial close through construction, commissioning, and commercial operation (COD).

- Own the department’s project budgets, including budget development, cost control, monitoring, and forecasting.

- Lead cross-functional collaboration with internal teams, including Development, Engineering, Procurement, and Finance, and with external stakeholders, including contractors, global equipment suppliers, owner’s engineers, project management and supervision firms, grid operators and regulatory authorities, and business partners.

- Monitor key project milestones, identify contractual risks and exposures, and lead negotiation strategies to proactively resolve issues and protect the company’s interests.

- Represent the projects and regularly report on their status and progress to senior management, partners, and other stakeholders.

### Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Civil, or Mechanical Engineering, or another relevant field – required.

- At least 10 years of experience managing renewable energy and/or infrastructure projects, including civil works, electrical infrastructure (including substations and grid connection), and the management of contractors, consultants, and engineering designers – required.

- Familiarity with Israeli regulatory, permitting, and grid connection processes, including work with the Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) and Noga – an advantage.

- Experience managing budgets and the financial and commercial aspects of complex infrastructure projects – required.

- Proven experience leading and developing teams of project managers – required.

- Previous experience in the renewable energy sector – a significant advantage.

- Excellent organizational and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple stakeholders and workstreams simultaneously.

- Strong technical orientation combined with strategic, big-picture thinking.

- Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel and MS Project – required.

- Native-level Hebrew and full professional proficiency in English, both spoken and written – required.

- Willingness and ability to travel frequently to project sites across Israel, with occasional international travel as required.

- Experience working with international teams and/or global equipment suppliers – an advantage.

**Live in Enlightenergy’s hiring system.** Read from the company's own applicant tracking system, not reposted from a job board — so it's a real, open requisition rather than an ad that outlived the role.

We remove it as soon as it disappears at source.
