This role supports a growing portfolio of high-impact projects currently in development and execution phases.

OVERVIEW:

As a Senior Project Manager, you will oversee multiple infrastructure projects ranging in size and complexity. You will lead cross-functional teams and manage all phases of project execution—from development to close-out. This position plays a key role in guiding strategic project outcomes, coordinating internal and external partners, and contributing to the expansion of a dynamic infrastructure division.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Lead infrastructure projects focused on wastewater treatment, anaerobic digestion, RNG, and CHP systems.
• Manage 3–4 direct team members across active and developing projects.
• Coordinate closely with internal engineering, design, and business development teams.
• Oversee all aspects of project delivery, including budgeting, scheduling, procurement, permitting, construction, and commissioning.
• Maintain and update project schedules while holding team members and contractors accountable to timelines.
• Review and approve daily logs and progress reports.
• Support subcontractor procurement, vendor coordination, and contract compliance.
• Facilitate strong communication between internal teams, subcontractors, and clients.
• Lead change order processes and ensure alignment with scope, cost, and schedule.
• Manage project controls, performance metrics, and reporting tools.
• Participate in company-wide meetings and contribute to organizational scaling efforts.
• Assist in recruiting and mentoring as the team continues to grow.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Mechanical/Civil Engineering, or a related field—or equivalent relevant experience.
• Minimum of 8 years of infrastructure project management experience, with strong emphasis on wastewater or industrial process systems.
• Demonstrated leadership in managing teams, schedules, and large project budgets.
• Strong communicator with experience interfacing across departments and with external partners.
• PMP certification preferred.
• OSHA 30 certification (or willingness to obtain within 6 months).
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools and project management software; familiarity with project control systems such as CMiC is a plus.
• Willing and able to travel approximately 25%, primarily within the Central and Eastern U.S.
• Experience working for general contractors or firms specializing in wastewater or industrial projects is highly desirable.
• Candidates with traditional power generation or ESCO backgrounds are not a match for this opportunity.

WHY JOIN:

• Be part of a collaborative and high-performing team environment.
