Multi-Site Industrial Trades Project Manager

Most weeks begin at a new site. One day you’re walking a mechanical room with millwrights, the next you’re reviewing an electrical install with a foreman and a client engineer. You keep complex, fast-paced projects on track—safely, on budget, and to spec—while leading skilled trades teams across multiple locations.

You’ll coordinate labor, materials, and subcontractors; manage scope, schedule, and cost; and uphold rigorous quality and safety standards.
