You'll also provide day-to-day management of teams as well as financial and technical performance on projects. You'll bring your expertise to solve complex problems, ensuring the soaring success of our advanced facilities construction projects.

  • Experience in the execution of multi-office projects (possibly international)

  • Ability to implement program-wide systems and solutions across multiple disciplines, contractors, stakeholders, and 3rd parties

  • General engineering knowledge that are key to the successful implementation of advanced manufacturing projects including infrastructure, process, utilities, and support facilities

  • Strong experience in design project cost management, including capital cost estimating reviews, forecasting, earned value and meeting design budgets

  • Experience in developing proposals, estimating design, procurement, and construction management services hours, and working with clients to understand their needs and develop solutions to meet those needs

  • Program Management experience should include Engineering, Procurement, Construction Management and Commissioning (EPCM) elements.

  • Preferred but not mandatory - Certified Construction Manager (CCM), Professional Engineer (PE), Project Management Professional (PMP) or Architect license/certification

Ideally, you'll also have:

  • Strong working knowledge in design and construction, building systems/components and technology, contract management, project delivery methods, environmental and LEED applications, team building and client relationship building

  • At least 5 years of experience with design and construction of manufacturing facilities in excess of $500 million construction value

  • Ability to travel to project locations for short term visits to client sites

  • Strong existing relationships with advanced manufacturing clients

  • Prior field experience during construction
