Position Overview

TAKNEK LLC is seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager – Industrial Construction to provide leadership across our heavy industrial construction projects and project management team.

Our work includes heavy industrial and infrastructure construction such as water and wastewater treatment facilities, pump stations, tanks, process facilities, concrete structures, underground utilities, process piping, mechanical equipment, electrical, instrumentation, and related systems.

The Senior Project Manager will be accountable for project execution, financial performance, schedule, risk, client relationships, and the performance of the PMs and APMs assigned to their projects.

We are looking for an experienced builder and leader who understands both field construction and the commercial side of managing complex projects.

Key Responsibilities

Oversee multiple heavy industrial construction projects from preconstruction through final closeout.

Provide leadership and direction to assigned PMs and APMs.

Establish project execution plans, priorities, responsibilities, and expectations.

Regularly review the overall health of each project.

Identify project risks early and ensure corrective actions are implemented.

Step directly into critical project issues when senior-level leadership is required.

Lead & Develop PMs and APMs

Directly manage, mentor, and develop Project Managers and Assistant Project Managers.

Hold PMs accountable for cost, schedule, procurement, changes, billing, documentation, and project execution.

Review PM project forecasts and challenge assumptions when necessary.

Ensure APMs are developing strong field, technical, financial, and project management skills.

Delegate responsibility while maintaining appropriate oversight.

Build a strong, accountable project management culture.

Maintain senior-level oversight of project financial performance, including:

Cost-to-complete forecasts

Revenue and margin

Labor/productivity impacts

Owner billing

Cash flow

Change orders

Project profitability

The Senior PM is expected to identify financial problems early and work with the project team to protect TAKNEK's contractual and financial position.

Scheduling & Execution

Review and challenge project schedules.

Monitor critical-path activities and major milestones.

Ensure procurement aligns with construction schedules.

Review recovery plans for projects falling behind.

Ensure PMs and Superintendents are aligned on execution strategy.

Contracts & Change Management

Maintain strong understanding of owner contracts and major subcontract agreements.

Provide senior oversight of RFIs, changes, claims, notices, and contractual issues.

Lead significant change-order and commercial negotiations.

Ensure project teams properly identify and document additional work and schedule impacts.

Protect TAKNEK's contractual rights while maintaining strong client relationships.

Heavy Industrial Construction Leadership

Provide experienced leadership involving:

Structural and cast-in-place concrete

Large-diameter and process piping

Pumps and mechanical equipment

Tanks and process structures

Electrical systems

Instrumentation and controls

Testing and commissioning

Startup and turnover

The Senior PM must be capable of walking a project with the Superintendent and PM and understanding how the work is actually being built.

Client & Stakeholder Management

Serve as a senior TAKNEK representative with owners, engineers, construction managers, subcontractors, and key vendors.

Develop strong long-term client relationships.

Participate in or lead critical owner and project meetings.

Resolve escalated commercial, schedule, and contractual issues.

Maintain professional and effective communication throughout project execution.

Safety & Quality Leadership

Reinforce TAKNEK's safety expectations across all assigned projects.

Work with field leadership to address safety, quality, productivity, and execution concerns.

Promote accountability throughout the project organization.

Qualifications

10+ years of construction management experience, preferably in heavy industrial, water/wastewater, heavy civil, or complex infrastructure construction.

Significant experience as a Project Manager or Senior Project Manager on multimillion-dollar construction projects.

Proven experience managing and developing PMs, APMs, Project Engineers, or other project management personnel.

Strong understanding of heavy industrial construction means, methods, sequencing, and constructability.

Strong project financial management and forecasting experience.

Experience with project scheduling, procurement, subcontract management, and change management.

Strong contract and commercial knowledge.

Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.

Strong leadership, negotiation, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Ability to travel to TAKNEK project sites throughout Texas as required.

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field.

Experience with water/wastewater or process-intensive industrial facilities.

Experience managing both self-perform and subcontracted construction.

Experience with large mechanical/process equipment and complex project commissioning.

Established relationships within the Texas industrial and heavy construction market.

What We Are Looking For

TAKNEK is looking for someone who can do more than successfully manage their own project.

The Senior Project Manager must be able to lead people, oversee multiple projects, recognize problems early, challenge project teams, develop PMs and APMs, and take ownership of overall project performance.

The right candidate understands that successful project leadership requires balancing:

Safety + People + Client + Schedule + Cost + Contract + Quality + Risk + Profitability

This individual should be comfortable moving between the jobsite, project financial review, owner meeting, schedule discussion, contract negotiation, and employee coaching conversation.

The expectation is simple: build strong teams and deliver successful projects.

TAKNEK LLC is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
