Senior Project Manager

At Huntsman, Project Managers are champions for great design and represent our client’s vision on every project. They have an important responsibility to ensure project financial success as well as promote a positive and productive experience for all project participants. Project Managers handle a range of assignments in terms of scope and size, and daily responsibilities can vary a great deal.

This includes maintaining a smooth workflow, encouraging an energetic and collaborative team atmosphere, and fostering creativity all while managing to the established schedule and budget. Only when the needs of the client, our partners, each project team member, and the project’s financial goals are met, can we achieve team-based success. Our design is a team endeavor, with creative expression and meaningful projects as the ultimate reward.
