MEP Project Manager

Project Manager — Cleanroom / Life Science Construction

• ? Philadelphia Area (Local Role — Minimal Travel)

Metric Geo is supporting one of the most innovative and fastest-scaling specialty contractors in the U.S. as they continue to expand their Philadelphia headquarters. Our client designs and delivers cleanrooms, cryogenic rooms, cold rooms, dry rooms, and critical process environments for the pharmaceutical, biotech, semiconductor, EV battery, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing sectors.

Due to aggressive pipeline growth across the Northeast, they are hiring an experienced Project Manager to join their Philadelphia team. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in technically complex, high-MEP construction and wants to grow within a company building the next generation of controlled-environment manufacturing facilities.
