Salary: USD45 - USD48 per hour + Health, Dental, Vision

About This Opportunity

We are advancing a significant gas generation portfolio. We are seeking a Project Manager to support E&C's engagement across gas project development activities at our Federal Hub efforts — from early-stage technical assessments through construction readiness and project execution. Immediately focus will be on project reporting development and implementation.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role operating at the intersection of Engineering, Construction, and Integrated Supply Chain. The ideal candidate brings disciplined project experience, a strong sense of ownership over cost and schedule risk, and the ability to drive cross-functional alignment in a fast-moving, origination-driven environment.

Procurement & Integrated Supply Chain Coordination

• Coordinate with Integrated Supply Chain on RFQ inputs, technical scope review, and bid evaluation for major equipment and EPC/EPCM scopes
• Support cost comparison analysis between E&C estimates and contractor proposals, flagging material variances as scope alignment risks
• Track long-lead equipment status (combustion turbines, HRSGs, transformers, switchgear) and flag supply chain constraints in a capacity-constrained OEM market

What You'll Need

Required:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
