About the role:

We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to lead the successful execution of complex building automation projects across multiple sites, driving strategy, cross-functional coordination, and stakeholder engagement from planning to final delivery.

You'll partner closely with clients, engineering teams, and senior leadership to ensure on-time, in-budget delivery that meets the highest technical standards.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead end-to-end project execution across multiple BAS construction projects, ensuring alignment with corporate goals and client requirements.

  • Oversee all contract documentation, change order management, procurement, and vendor coordination.
  • Collaborate closely with clients to build trust, manage expectations, and serve as primary point of escalation.
  • Evaluate and approve engineering designs, technical submittals, and BoMs for compliance and efficiency.
  • Mitigate risk through proactive planning, forecasting, and issue resolution.
  • Standardize best practices across projects to drive efficiency and quality in delivery.
  • Ensure compliance with Divcon's internal systems (e.g., DivPro), safety standards, and project documentation protocols.


Qualifications:

  • Strong business acumen with experience in financial oversight, reporting, and resource planning.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills - from technicians to C-suite.
  • Proficiency with project management software (e.g., Procore, MS Project) and financial tools.
  • OSHA 30 certification obtained within the past two (2) years is required.
    • If certification is not current or has not been completed, OSHA 30 training will be provided and must be successfully completed within the first week of employment.


Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to travel frequently to job sites by car or plane, up to 85%
  • Ability to stand, walk, and move throughout job sites for extended periods
