  • Lead constructability reviews, impact assessments, and risk mitigation strategies in collaboration with engineering and planning teams.
  • Coordinate site logistics, utility shutdowns, commissioning (Cx), and Operational Readiness, Activation, and Transfer (ORAT) activities.
  • Respond to RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, and change management processes to keep projects aligned and on track.
  • Manage documentation across systems, maintain safety logs, and generate daily progress reports.
  • Provide safety oversight, including review and verification of the general contractor’s safety plan and implementation.
  • Support procurement, labor compliance, and DBE / SBE program tracking.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Position Expectations

  • Proactively identifies and resolves site and design conflicts in real time.
  • Maintains high accountability, reliability, and leadership presence on behalf of the client.
  • Offers operational insights to continuously improve project delivery, site coordination, and performance monitoring.
  • Embodies PMA’s standards for technical excellence, integrity, and client service.
  • Position Qualifications

  • Experience acting as an Owner’s Representative and / or Project Manager on large, complex projects.
  • Proven track record overseeing contractors, managing trades, and maintaining schedule and specification compliance.
