• Plan and execute construction in occupied/open retail settings by coordinating phasing, off-hours work windows, access and logistics, temporary controls/signage, and stakeholder communications to minimize customer and colleague disruption.
• Own project risk, issue, and dependency management by identifying impacts early (schedule, cost, quality, safety, business continuity), driving mitigation plans, and escalating decisions when needed.
• Provide project leadership through clear communication, meeting facilitation, and consistent reporting; mentor less experienced colleagues as needed; and promote a collaborative, accountable team environment.

• Demonstrated capability in core project management disciplines (scope, schedule, budget, quality, risk, and change control) and familiarity with estimating, project controls, construction administration, phasing/logistics planning, and safety practices in regulated or customer-facing environments.

Hours & Work Schedule

• Monday–Friday with occasional evenings/weekends as needed; hybrid schedule (1–2 days in office, 3–4 days visiting project sites).
• Travel: 25–50%, including occasional overnights.
