Project Manager Fabrication

Overview

We're looking for an experienced Project Manager with deep knowledge of fabrication and experiential builds. This is a senior individual-contributor role-no direct reports-but you will be the point person and subject-matter expert for all fabrication-intensive projects.

The right candidate is process-driven, detail-oriented, and able to work cross-functionally with technical design, production, and installation teams to deliver high-quality projects reliably and efficiently.

Core Responsibilities

Project Leadership & Execution

* Own all aspects of fabrication-focused projects from kickoff through installation.

* Partner closely with Technical Design, Prepress, Production, and Installation teams to develop project-specific workflows, work-back schedules, and production strategies.

* Ensure installers receive a clear, written "run of show" / playbook tailored to each job and confirm the correct install team is assigned.

Process Development & Continuous Improvement

* Help advance Blu Edge's expansion into experiential and fabrication-heavy work by establishing clear, repeatable PM processes.

* Create and refine toolkits and documentation, including:

* Work-back schedules

* Workflow strategies

* Standard operating procedures for fabrication projects

* Identify bottlenecks between Sales, Project Management, and Production, and recommend corrective actions to improve throughput and reliability.

* Clarify and document what falls within a PM's scope-and what does not-to ensure consistency across the team.

Systems & Platform Adoption

* Become fluent in Blu Core (our proprietary internal software) and support the ongoing rollout of the platform within the project management organization.

* Ensure your projects are fully run through Blu Core, using templates, scheduling tools, checklists, and reporting as designed.

Client Communication

* Serve as the primary project-facing contact for fabrication clients.

* Align early on scope, expectations, timeline, and requirements.

* Communicate changes, risks, and updates clearly and proactively.

* Build trust through reliability and strong technical understanding.
* (Optional/Not required) Leverage pre-existing relationships to introduce potential opportunities to Blu Edge.

Cross-Functional Strengths (Used as Needed)

* Strong understanding of installation methods and on-site coordination

* Ability to qualify project scope and ensure feasibility before work begins

* Comfort participating in build strategy discussions with internal teams

Ideal Background

* Significant hands-on experience managing fabrication or experiential production projects

* Deep understanding of vendor coordination, materials, production methods, and install logistics

* Highly organized, with a strong ability to create and enforce structure

* Excellent communicator who can bridge technical teams and clients

* Comfortable operating independently as the fabrication PM expert
