Senior Project Manager – Capital Projects Processing Equipment Installation and Commissioning
Overview

This is a high-impact leadership role for a seasoned Project Manager who thrives in complex, fast-paced industrial environments. You will take ownership of large-scale, multi-phase capital projects—driving execution from concept through commissioning—while influencing strategy, client relationships, and internal performance.

You won’t just manage projects—you’ll shape outcomes, mentor talent, and play a key role in how projects are delivered across the organization.

What You’ll Do

• End-to-End Project Leadership
• Own full lifecycle execution of capital projects across engineering, design, procurement, construction, and startup phases.
• Translate broad project objectives into clear execution strategies aligned with structured front-end planning methodologies.
• Drive schedule, cost, and quality performance with a proactive, solutions-first mindset
  Client & Stakeholder Influence.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, building long-term partnerships grounded in delivery excellence.
• Anticipate client needs and proactively guide decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.
• Contribute to growth initiatives through scope development, technical input, and strategic expansion of existing relationships
• Team Leadership & Development
• Lead cross-functional teams across engineering, operations, and field execution
• Mentor and develop emerging project leaders, strengthening overall team capability
• Foster accountability, collaboration, and a high-performance culture.
• Risk Management & Problem Solving
• Identify project risks early and implement mitigation strategies that protect timelines and financial outcomes.
• Navigate ambiguity and change with confidence, keeping projects on track under pressure
• Resolve technical and operational challenges with a balanced, business-minded approach
• Planning, Scheduling & Execution Discipline
• Build and manage detailed project schedules across multiple workstreams
• Optimize resource allocation and identify opportunities for efficiency improvements
• Support portfolio-level planning through accurate forecasting and workload visibility
• Financial Ownership
• Manage project financials including budgets, forecasts, and cost controls.
• Understand and influence key financial drivers such as margins, change orders, and cash flow.
• Deliver predictable financial outcomes through disciplined project controls

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related technical discipline
• Experience in Chemical Processing, Oil/Gas, Bio-Refineries, Agricultural Chem or Food Flavors\Ingredients desirable.
• At Least 8 years of experience managing complex industrial or engineering-driven projects
• Demonstrated success leading large, multi-phase capital projects with minimal oversight
• Strong client-facing experience with the ability to influence and build trust at multiple levels
• Expertise in project controls, scheduling tools, and structured project delivery methodologies
• PMP or equivalent certification preferred
• Willingness to travel up to ~30% depending on project needs

Why This Role Stands Out

• Opportunity to lead high-visibility, technically complex projects with real business impact
• Direct influence on both project execution strategy and organizational performance
• Strong autonomy with the backing of a well-established, growth-oriented platform
• Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package
