You will contribute throughout the construction project lifecycle, from initial award and project setup through execution and closeout. Depending on project needs, you may support one large, complex project or multiple smaller projects while gaining broad exposure to project financials, scheduling, production planning, earned value, change management, and forecasting. This is an opportunity to grow your project controls expertise while helping teams deliver successful outcomes on high-impact construction projects.
