Senior Project Director

Boston Government Services, LLC. (BGS) is seeking a Senior Project Director to support our Advanced Energy Solutions (AES) Business Unit.

The Senior Project Director (SPD) is accountable for end-to-end delivery of a $1B nuclear fuel facility from detailed design through construction, commissioning, and turnover to operations. This leader drives execution across safety, quality, schedule, cost, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder alignment while coordinating Owner, EPC/CM, subcontractors, vendors, regulators, and site operations. The SPD will establish and maintain a high‑performing integrated project team and deliver a safe, compliant, operable facility that meets all technical and business requirements.

• Establish project governance, decision rights, reporting cadence, and escalation paths; lead executive steering updates.
• Build and lead an integrated project team culture grounded in nuclear safety, accountability, and performance.
• Maintain alignment between project objectives and operational readiness requirements (maintainability, staffing, training, spares, etc.).
• Champion nuclear safety culture: stop‑work authority, pre‑job briefs, human performance tools, and strong hazard recognition.
• Ensure construction execution complies with applicable nuclear QA and codes/standards (e.g., NQA‑1 program, ASME, CSA/IEEE as applicable).
• Own performance against baseline scope, cost, and schedule; maintain disciplined change control and forecasting.
• Partner with project controls to implement robust EVM/earned progress, productivity tracking, trend management, and corrective action plans.
• Drive look‑ahead planning (2‑6 week and 90‑day horizons), pull planning, constraint management, and weekly work planning.

• Oversee constructability reviews, site logistics, temporary facilities, work packaging, and workface planning.
• Ensure work packages are complete and executable: approved IFC drawings, permits, materials, QC hold points, ITPs, and test requirements.
• Lead field coordination for civil/structural, mechanical, electrical, I&C, and specialty systems (HVAC, fire protection, critical utilities, glovebox or hot cell systems if applicable).

• Proven leadership delivering >$250M Cap Ex projects (owner, EPC, or CM) with strong cost/schedule outcomes; experience on >$500M‑$1B programs strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated expertise in:

• Contracting and execution strategies (EPC, CM‑at‑Risk, Design‑Build, multi‑prime).
