The Construction Manager supports the Site Manager in the delivery of Construction Management services for a brownfield coal-to-gas power plant conversion project executed through multiple owner-held construction contracts.

The Construction Manager serves as a primary interface between contractors, project controls, engineering, commissioning, operations, and the Construction Management team. The role is responsible for monitoring contractor performance, coordinating field activities, identifying and resolving execution issues, and ensuring alignment with project safety, quality, schedule, and operational requirements.
