This role is responsible for driving project planning, scheduling, resource allocation, cost control, change management, risk mitigation, quality assurance, and construction documentation throughout the project lifecycle. You will lead project meetings, manage construction workflows, monitor progress against milestones, and proactively resolve field issues while maintaining strong customer relationships. Success in this position requires balancing customer satisfaction with project profitability while ensuring consistent adherence to company processes, construction best practices, and project management standards.
