Position Summary
Serving as the primary consultant to the client’s Regional Program Manager (RPM) and direct manager to on-site Construction Managers (CMs), the Project Manager - Owner’s Representative (PM-OR) acts as the operational bridge between regional program planning and field execution. This role is responsible for driving portfolio-wide Facility Ready (FR) milestones across complex infrastructure builds, serving as a critical filter for field data, resolving cross-functional friction, and safeguarding financial and schedule integrity throughout the complete project lifecycle—from preconstruction through Level 5 Commissioning and turnover. Operating in a global capacity, working hours for this remote position vary and dynamically align with the specific time zones and operational schedules of the supported international portfolio.
Key Responsibilities
Portfolio Risk Mitigation & Strategic Alignment: Conduct structured schedule and financial reviews with the RPM to track critical path health, evaluate early warning risks, validate forecast handover dates, and filter site-level metrics into actionable executive briefings.
Financial Stewardship & Cost Control: Rigorously audit General Contractor (GC) payment applications, Early Warning Notices (EWNs), and proposed Change Orders to ensure scope accuracy, cost reasonability, and capital protection.
Cross-Functional & Supply Chain Oversight: Resolve workflow bottlenecks (design RFIs, submittals, permitting) and track Owner-Furnished Equipment (OFE) and procurement lifecycles to eliminate downstream schedule drift.
Field Leadership & Talent Management: Directly manage, mentor, and deploy regional CM talent, intervening in high-stakes field scenarios to resolve complex contractual disputes and trade boundary interfaces.
Commissioning & Operational Turnover: Monitor Level 1 through Level 5 commissioning sequences, enforce vendor and GC accountability during testing, and drive punch-list resolution for seamless site transfers to Operations.
Quality & Safety Governance: Oversee EHS compliance and field quality across the regional portfolio, ensuring project management system records are accurate and QA/QC standards meet client expectations.
What We Look For in a Teammate
Extreme Ownership & Resourcefulness: A solution-first mindset with a strong bias for action; thrives in fast-paced, dynamic environments, taking full accountability for outcomes without needing step-by-step instructions.
Executive Advisory & Technical Expertise: Mastery in interrogating CPM schedules (e.g., Primavera P6), auditing construction financials, and evaluating MEP-dense/mission-critical facilities.
Global Operational Flexibility: Comfortable managing cross-time-zone communications and adjusting personal workflows to align seamlessly with international teams and client schedules.
Empowering Leadership & Managerial Rigor: Hands-on mentor who creates a blameless, high-velocity team culture, shields team members from non-critical executive distractions, and manages performance directly to maintain high standards of quality and conduct.
Physical & Environmental Requirements
Work Setup & Location: Home-office-based remote setup. Attendance at regional or corporate offices (e.g., Leesburg, VA) required approximately 2–3 times per year for strategic planning.
Travel Frequency: Up to 25% regional and international travel required for site audits, CM support, executive stakeholder engagement, and key milestones.
Site Operations: Ability to safely navigate active, fast-paced commercial/industrial construction sites, wear required PPE, and perform site assessments during environmental and commissioning testing.
Qualifications & Certifications
Required
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related technical discipline.
Experience: 10+ years of direct project management experience delivering complex MEP-dense, heavy commercial, industrial, or mission-critical construction projects (or an equivalent combination of education and experience).
Commercial Expertise: Proven track record auditing GC pay applications, evaluating change orders, and managing project-level risk.
Technical Software: Demonstrated experience utilizing scheduling software (Primavera P6 or equivalent) and cloud-based construction platforms.
Preferred
Targeted Domain Experience: Direct PM or Owner’s Representative experience on hyperscale data center builds or mission-critical infrastructure.
Field Leadership: 3+ years of direct, on-site Construction Manager (CM) experience leading field teams.
Platform Experience: Direct working knowledge of Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC).
Professional Certifications: Project Management Professional (PMP) and/or CSI credentials.
Tech Proficiency: Proficiency in Google Workspace tools (Docs, Sheets, Drive, Gmail) or equivalent enterprise collaboration suites.
