Senior Project Manager - Industrial Mechanical Insulation

Our client, a national leader in specialty contracting and mechanical insulation services, is seeking a Senior Project Manager to join its established Oil & Gas Mechanical Insulation business.

This is a unique opportunity to step into an established book of Oil & Gas customers and projects as part of a planned succession. A long-tenured industry leader is preparing for retirement, creating an opportunity for an experienced mechanical insulation professional to transition into the existing business, build relationships with established customers, and gradually take ownership of the portfolio. Youll be stepping into established relationships and ongoing work rather than starting from scratch.

The role is primarily focused on project management and customer relationships. Youll serve as a primary point of contact for customers throughout the project lifecycle, helping move projects from estimating and proposal development through execution, billing, and closeout. Youll coordinate closely with field teams, customers, and internal resources to keep projects on schedule, address issues as they arise, manage project financials, and ensure customers receive the level of service expected from a long-term partner.

If youre looking for an opportunity to take ownership of an established customer portfolio, work with a long-tenured industry leader during a planned transition, and build on an existing book of Oil & Gas mechanical insulation business, we encourage you to apply!
