About This Role

As Quanta Services scales beyond $27B, our operating companies are delivering increasingly complex and critical infrastructure projects across North America. Technology is a key enabler of that success—and we need to ensure every business has the support, tools, and partnership required to deliver.

We’re seeking a Director of Operations IT to act as a strategic connector between our corporate IT organization and over 40 operating companies. This role combines client relationship management, business consulting, and team leadership to ensure our decentralized teams can move fast while staying well-supported.

What You'll Do

Build Trusted Partnerships Across the Business Engage directly with operating company technology and business leaders to understand their goals, challenges, and priorities. Serve as their advocate within corporate IT.
Lead a High-Impact Field-Facing Team Manage and mentor a team of Business Technology Partners embedded in our operating companies. Set clear expectations, ensure consistent delivery, and foster a high-trust, service-oriented culture.
Manage Demand and Drive Prioritization Aggregate and structure technology needs across the business. Build a backlog of opportunities, facilitate prioritization discussions, and help translate business needs into actionable technology solutions.
Coordinate and Improve Shared Services Ensure operating companies receive timely, effective support from corporate IT. Monitor service delivery, surface friction points, and drive continuous improvement through feedback and metrics.
Enable Collaboration Across Companies Identify shared needs and patterns across operating companies. Help the business capitalize on repeatable solutions, shared tools, and scalable practices—without sacrificing local autonomy.
Support M&A and Integration Readiness As new companies join the Quanta family, help introduce them to our IT engagement model. Provide guidance on how to plug into shared services while retaining what makes them unique.


What You'll Bring

10+ years of experience in IT business partnership, client services, or technology consulting roles
Proven ability to operate in a federated environment—balancing enterprise needs with local autonomy
Demonstrated success leading teams and building high-trust, field-facing relationships
Strong understanding of IT service delivery, project demand management, and technology enablement
Excellent communication and influencing skills—you listen first, then lead
Experience working across both business and technology functions to deliver measurable outcomes
A mindset focused on enabling others—prioritizing support, transparency, and shared success
> 6 Years

What We Offer What Makes This Role Unique

Federated Model, Field Focused Our operating companies run independently. Your role is to help them succeed—not by controlling their technology, but by enabling it. You’ll build trusted relationships, surface needs, and ensure they get value from shared IT services.
Embedded Partnership Model You’ll lead a team of Business Technology Partners embedded within the field—connecting local business needs to corporate IT capabilities and driving meaningful, measurable outcomes.
Growth at Scale As Quanta continues to grow organically and through acquisition, you’ll help ensure our technology engagement model scales with it. This is a chance to shape how technology supports a growing enterprise from the ground up.
