Construction Project Manager

• Read, interpret, and manage mechanical, electrical, and civil drawings
• Identify, evaluate, and mitigate technical, construction, and execution risks
• Manage multiple concurrent projects at various stages of execution
• Coordinate and oversee 20–30% outsourced engineering, ensuring alignment with internal standards
• Directly manage internal engineering resources within a matrix organization
• Negotiate and manage civil, mechanical, and electrical construction scopes
• Perform contractor coordination and negotiation without a dedicated procurement department
• Manage and approve change orders, including technical, schedule, and cost impacts
• Coordinate internally across engineering, construction, and operations teams
• Coordinate externally with contractors, consultants, regulatory agencies, and stakeholders
• Resolve technical conflicts and construction challenges in the field
• Ensure compliance with safety, quality, and regulatory requirements
• Travel to project sites as required and support flexible work hours based on project demands

• Willingness to travel approximately 20% and maintain flexible work hours
