Job description

Lead the Projects Other Contractors Can't.

At InServ, we solve some of the most technically demanding industrial construction challenges in the Southeast.

Our clients trust us because we consistently deliver complex mechanical, process, and high-purity piping systems where precision, planning, and technical expertise matter. We're looking for a Senior Project Manager who enjoys tackling difficult projects, making smart decisions, and building solutions that stand the test of time.

If you're energized by solving problems, leading high-performing teams, and taking ownership of challenging industrial projects from concept through completion, we'd like to meet you.

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

This isn't a role where you're managing paperwork.

You'll oversee some of the most sophisticated industrial construction projects in life sciences, advanced manufacturing, food & beverage, and other technically demanding industries. You'll have the authority to make decisions, influence project strategy, mentor future leaders, and build lasting client relationships based on technical credibility.

You'll work alongside experienced professionals who value preparation, collaboration, and doing the job right the first time.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

As a Senior Project Manager, you'll be trusted to lead multiple complex projects with full accountability for execution and results.

Your responsibilities include:

• Developing project execution strategies before work begins
• Solving complex technical, operational, and scheduling challenges
• Managing project financial performance, forecasting, and profitability
• Directing change management and contract administration
• Coordinating field operations, engineering, procurement, subcontractors, and clients
• Driving schedule performance while maintaining exceptional safety and quality standards
• Identifying project risks early and implementing practical solutions
• Building long-term client partnerships through technical expertise and reliable execution
• Coaching and developing project managers and helping strengthen the next generation of leaders
• Improving processes that make projects safer, more efficient, and more profitable

QUALIFICATIONS

• 10+ years of project management experience in industrial construction or a related industry.
• Proven success managing multiple complex capital projects simultaneously.
• Strong financial, scheduling, and change management skills.
• Excellent leadership, communication, negotiation, and problem-solving abilities.
• Experience coaching and developing others.
• Ability to adapt quickly to changing priorities and project conditions.
• PMP or CAPM certification preferred.
• Demonstrated commitment to InServ's core values.

TRAVEL

• Depending on project needs and location, travel is approximately 30% of the regular work schedule.

WHY EXPERIENCED PROJECT MANAGERS CHOOSE INSERV

Our project managers aren't micromanaged.

They're trusted.

We hire experienced professionals, give them the resources they need, and empower them to make decisions that drive successful projects.

At InServ you'll find:

• Challenging, technically sophisticated projects
• A collaborative leadership team that values expertise
• Opportunities to influence company processes and mentor future leaders
• Long-term client relationships built on trust and performance
• A culture focused on quality, safety, and continuous improvement—not bureaucracy
