About the Opportunity Our client is seeking an experienced Project Manager to oversee complex heavy haul and specialized rigging projects from planning through execution.

As a Project Manager, you will:
Develop and execute plans for multiple heavy haul and specialized rigging projects . Develop detailed project scopes covering route surveys, permits, equipment, support services, site requirements, crews, and other necessary resources. Coordinate project schedules, mobilization, equipment, resources, and field execution. Serve as a key point of communication between customers, field leadership, management, contractors, utilities, and governmental or permitting agencies. Work closely with Foremen to ensure the appropriate equipment, personnel, and resources are available when required.
Visit project sites to monitor progress and ensure work remains aligned with the project scope and requirements. Maintain accurate and current project documentation. Communicate changes in project requirements, schedules, resources, and responsibilities clearly to the appropriate stakeholders.
