• Monitor MEP installation, critical infrastructure and equipment deliveries.
• Manage change orders, cost control, RFIs and construction issues.
• Coordinate commissioning readiness, testing and final project handover.
• Provide regular progress updates to the owner's team.

• Proven experience as a Project Manager or Construction Manager on complex construction projects.

• Strong GC management, construction scheduling and subcontractor coordination skills.
• Good understanding of MEP systems and critical infrastructure.
• Ability to operate autonomously, take ownership and drive contractors towards key milestones.
• Experience with Primavera P6 or similar scheduling tools is advantageous.

The contractor will travel to Kansas City every other week for site oversight, coordinating with the project team remotely between visits.
