The Opportunity

As a member of the Asset Delivery team, you will be responsible for the on-site management of a new project valued in excess of $600M in the City of San Francisco from the start of construction through facility operations. Your primary objective will be to ensure that Plenary successfully manages its design and construction obligations and meets its overall development commitments under a PPP framework, thereby building a premier reputation for Plenary with client entities, business partners, and community stakeholders.

Within this role, you will act as the primary point of contact with the public-sector client and Plenary's partners and be responsible for implementing the project in coordination with other members of the project team.

The ideal candidate will be capable of engaging stakeholders by effectively articulating Plenary's approach to achieving project objectives and must demonstrate the ability to build and maintain long-term, effective working partnerships. The candidate must also have strong interpersonal skills, a demonstrated record of creative problem-solving in complex situations, experience in contract management for construction projects in excess of $250M, and the ability to make well-informed decisions to progress the assigned project.

The role will likely grow to include the same or similar responsibilities on other Plenary projects in the same geographical region.
