  • Collaborate across departments to ensure seamless integration of design, construction, and client requirements. You’ll work closely with design and engineering teams to keep projects aligned with the client’s vision and our firm’s standards.
  • Develop and implement project management best practices, enhancing workflow, documentation, and team accountability across projects. You’ll mentor junior project managers and project engineers, fostering a culture of professional growth and continuous improvement.
  • Oversee project financials, including budgeting, forecasting, and cost management, ensuring all financial goals are met. You’ll provide transparent financial reporting to clients and internal stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

How we’ll measure it

  • Client-centered, driven to provide an outstanding experience through proactive communication, exceptional service, and a commitment to understanding client priorities.
  • Organized and detail-oriented, with an ability to oversee multiple projects, prioritize tasks, and maintain high standards even under tight timelines.
  • Collaborative and communicative, engaging effectively with cross-functional teams, stakeholders, and clients to ensure project success and uphold our firm’s culture of inclusivity.
  • A strategic thinker, able to adapt project plans and problem-solve effectively while managing risks and delivering consistent, high-quality results.
  • A mentor and leader, passionate about fostering growth and development within the team. You inspire accountability and excellence in others.

  • Extensive experience in client relationship management, with the ability to anticipate client needs, adapt strategies accordingly, and maintain strong client satisfaction levels.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Project, Vista, or similar project management software, ensuring you can manage schedules, budgets, and project documentation with precision.
