• Report on project health and financials to senior leadership

About You

The successful candidate will have the following:

• 8+ years in progressively senior project management roles within ICI construction
• A track record of running large commercial or institutional projects from start to finish
• Sharp with numbers: budgets, forecasts, and cost reporting
• Natural at managing up, down, and across a project team
• Construction Management, Engineering, or related degree/diploma
• Gold Seal certification is a plus
