Program Manager of Projects

Role Description

The Program Manager of Projects (PgM-Projects) is responsible for execution quality, financial performance, and Project Manager development across multiple concurrent commissioning projects. This role is the primary driver of project delivery within the Field Services Group, converting program-level direction into consistent, predictable outcomes at the site level while providing the financial monitoring and demand-side labor forecasting that informs portfolio-level decisions.

The Program Manager of Projects will convert tactical planning to tactical deployment/coordination to meet strategic objectives. This person will communicate and operate in line with organizational goals and values, as well as departmental objectives.
