Capital Projects Manager - Intermodal Facilities; Remote

Job Title: Facilities & Capital Projects Manager

Department: Operations

Reports To: Chief Operating Officer (COO)

Job Location: Remote (HQ)

Position Overview

The Facilities & Capital Projects Manager is responsible for managing facility improvements, infrastructure projects, and capital investments across the company's network of intermodal terminals. This role provides hands‑on leadership throughout the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) lifecycle, helping move projects from initial concept and engineering through procurement, construction, commissioning, and final turnover to Operations.

Working closely with Operations and executive leadership, this position develops project scopes, coordinates engineering and design resources, supports contractor and vendor selection, manages construction activities, and ensures completed projects meet the company's operational, safety, quality, schedule, and financial expectations.

This is a highly hands‑on position requiring significant travel between company terminals to evaluate facility conditions, identify improvement opportunities, coordinate engineers and contractors, and oversee project execution. The ideal candidate is a self‑motivated problem solver who thrives in a fast‑paced industrial/agricultural environment, takes ownership of results, and is equally comfortable developing a project plan, reviewing a contractor proposal, and being in the field ensuring work is executed properly.

Success in this role is measured by delivering projects safely, on time, and within budget while creating measurable improvements in facility reliability, operational efficiency, infrastructure capability, and overall terminal performance.

Work Location & Travel

This position supports the company's network of intermodal terminals and requires extensive travel (approximately 50–75%). Because the role is field‑based, candidates may reside within a reasonable distance of a major airport and should be able to travel efficiently to company facilities as business needs require. Frequent overnight travel should be expected.
