About the Role

This is not your typical project management role.

As a Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) Project Manager specializing in mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection (MEPF) systems, you'll lead the digital coordination of highly complex scopes across some of the most demanding projects in the industry. This isn't about pushing models - it's about driving results. You'll connect design intent with construction reality, integrating cutting-edge BIM/VDC tools and processes to ensure every system is planned, coordinated, and executed with precision.

Why

This Role is a Career Move

This role plays a critical function in helping trade contractors succeed in high-stakes construction environments. You will directly impact how well our clients coordinate with general contractors, design teams, and other trades by delivering precise, timely VDC support from our internal teams. It offers the opportunity to grow into senior delivery leadership positions across VIATechnik's project portfolio. As you demonstrate mastery in managing BIM delivery for trade clients, you may also take on process innovation, training, or account leadership.

What

You Will Bring

This position is ideal for individuals who find fulfillment in precision execution, cross-functional collaboration, and acting as the linchpin between internal teams and trade contractor clients. It's a great fit for those who want to make a visible impact without being in a technical production role.

  • Actively Participate in and Contribute to at Least One Company OKR. Within the first 90 days, engage in at least one organizational Objective and Key Result (OKR) initiative. Collaborate with peers and leadership to deliver measurable progress that goes beyond individual project work, such as improving internal processes, knowledge sharing, or client delivery practices.
  • Culture and Situation Fit

    You’ll join a client-centric delivery organization that values ownership, adaptability, innovation, and proactive communication where collaboration between roles is essential to success. The VDC Project Manager works in close partnership with technical counterparts and operates within a structured but evolving process framework. Most communication is internal or with trade contractor clients. The pace is fast, and projects run concurrently, requiring…
