  • Lead and mentor project controls staff, including project engineers, estimators, and coordinators.
  • Support continuous improvement initiatives and benchmarking practices to improve cost, schedule, and controls performance.
  • Bio Pharma Focus

  • Ensure all cost and schedule reporting accounts for Bio Pharma-specific requirements, including GMP, validation, commissioning, and compliance-driven milestones.
  • Integrate cleanroom construction sequencing, HVAC / process utilities, and regulatory audits into project controls framework.
  • Provide oversight and coordination of cost and schedule impacts related to validation, FDA / regulatory reviews, and turnover packages.
  • Requirements

  • 710+ years of project controls, project management, or cost engineering experience on large capital construction projects.
  • Prior experience in Bio Pharma, Life Sciences, or other highly regulated industries strongly preferred; semiconductor or advanced manufacturing experience considered.
  • Strong knowledge of CPM scheduling and cost management practices.
  • Advanced skills in Microsoft Excel and proficiency in scheduling software (Primavera P6, MS Project, or equivalent).
  • Proven experience with job cost accounting, cost estimating, and project change management.
