Job Details
What We Are Looking For:
We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to own multiple projects simultaneously across different phases of our Design-Manufacture-Construct model, and to set the execution standard that the program's Project Managers and Assistant Program Managers work to. This role owns client, vendor, and internal communication for every assigned project, owns their combined financial performance, and presents that performance in the Executive Review. In a single week you may be running design procurement on one project, manufacturing release on a second, and field turnover on a third, holding each to its own commitments while keeping capacity, cash, and client confidence intact across all of them. This is the highest level at which our personnel are still in the work every day. The role reports to the Program Manager, requires excellent communication skills and strong technical proficiency, is on-site at our Birmingham, AL headquarters at least 4 days per week, and involves up to 25% travel.
What You Will Do:
- Own schedule, financial, and client satisfaction outcomes on all assigned projects, holding each to its own commitments without allowing one to be funded by another
- Set the execution standard for Project Managers and Assistant Program Managers across schedules, JCRs, buyout logs, change management, and client communication
- Assign and sequence work across the Project Managers and Assistant Program Managers supporting your projects
- Lead schedule risk management across the portfolio and resolve conflicts for shared Design, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Construction resources
- Own project finances and P & L across all assigned projects, approve forecast positions, and present results and recovery plans in the Executive Review
- Own buyout strategy and approve subcontractor and vendor awards within delegated authority
- Negotiate, review, and execute subcontracts and Owner Change Orders, and resolve disputes and subcontractor claims within delegated authority
- Manage client expectations and represent the program in front of client leadership and senior internal forums
- Provide safety and quality leadership, including authority to halt shipment, set, or turnover of work for an unresolved safety or quality condition
- Train, develop, and mentor Project Managers and Assistant Program Managers, and hold them accountable for outcomes rather than activity
- Support the adoption of new tools that make the organization more efficient
What We Provide:
- Salaried, DOE ($120K-$180K plus bonus)
- Full-Time
- Full Benefits Package Available
- Support for Licenses and Certifications
