The Role

The Factory Construction Manager is the field-based owner of construction execution - the person on the ground making sure our factories get built on schedule, on budget, and to the quality standard our manufacturing operations demand. This role sits at the center of factory development, translating the project plan into daily forward progress and holding the field accountable to it. As we scale our manufacturing footprint, the pace and complexity of construction only increases; this role is what keeps that momentum from slipping. It requires someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-consequence environment, who runs toward problems rather than around them, and who treats the schedule as a commitment rather than a suggestion.

You will serve as the day-to-day owner's representative on active construction sites, working with project teams to drive progress against the schedule and customer milestones while holding general contractors and subcontractors accountable to safety, quality, and sequencing. You'll lead weekly coordination meetings to keep contractors aligned to the plan, track production and quantities in the field to catch schedule and budget drift early and mitigate any potential delays. You will write daily reports that give the broader project team clear visibility into progress and critical issues. Working cross-functionally with the project team, you'll support project planning sessions, validate contractor invoicing, and champion a strong safety and quality culture across every phase of the build. Ultimately, you own what gets built in the field - and you make sure it matches what the project promised.

What You'll Do

• Schedule Performance Oversight: Drive construction progress in the field in accordance with the project schedule and customer set milestones. Review the project schedule weekly to determine if any activities are behind schedule and address with contractors in weekly coordination meeting.
• Daily Construction Coordination: Support daily coordination with construction contractors in the field to ensure that work remains on track.

• Construction Project Planning: Support the project team in project planning sessions to stay ahead of work out in the field. Work with the contractors to develop necessary construction execution plans to drive work.
• Weekly Contractor Planning: Conduct weekly construction coordination meetings with subcontractors to establish a plan of action in accordance with the schedule.
• Weekly Production Tracking: Work with the project team to track quantities and measure progress out in the field. Work with the project team to analyze production rates in the field to compare to the schedule and budget.
• Invoice Approval Support: Work with project team to validate contractor invoicing.
