• Experience managing healthcare projects, preferably including those valued at $10 million or greater. The $10 million threshold is consistent with STV's prior healthcare PM requirements.


• Experience delivering projects in occupied and operational healthcare environments.


• Strong understanding of healthcare planning, design, construction, MEP infrastructure, commissioning, activation, and closeout.


• Demonstrated experience managing budgets, schedules, contracts, change management, project controls, and risk.


• Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and effectively communicate with executives, healthcare leadership, clinical users, consultants, and contractors.


• Strong organizational, negotiation, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.


• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Microsoft Project, SharePoint, and construction/project management software. These platforms are also identified in STV's existing healthcare PM materials.


• Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities in fast-paced, operationally sensitive environments.
