Engineering Project Manager

About

We are looking for a Project Manager to own capital projects not just execute them.

This is a rare opportunity for an experienced engineer to step into a highly visible role where you’ll act as the Owner’s Engineer, leading capital expansions and modernization efforts for a large-scale industrial manufacturing operation.

We’re looking for a forward-thinking engineering project leader to partner directly with the Director of Engineering and take charge of high-impact capital improvement projects, from concept through commissioning.

Why This Role Stands Out

• High visibility with executive leadership
• Opportunity to lead transformative capital projects
• Be the decision-maker and influencer, not just a contributor
• Work in a dynamic environment where no two projects are the same

What You’ll Own

• Lead capital expansion projects that drive capacity, efficiency, and long-term growth
• Act as the Owner’s Representative, ensuring projects align with business goals, budgets, and timelines
• Develop and manage full project lifecycle plans (scope, schedule, cost, quality)
• Build project scopes, budgets, and execution strategies from the ground up

What You Bring

• Experience in project engineering or capital project management within industrial or manufacturing environments
• Strong command of design, procurement, construction, commissioning)
• Experience working alongside engineering firms and contractors in an owner-rep capacity
• Ability to translate complex technical and financial data into actionable insights
• Background in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering (ABET accredited)
• PMP and/or PE (or on track) is a plus

If you’re someone who thrives on ownership, enjoys influencing major projects from the front seat, and wants to leave a lasting impact on a facility’s future this is the kind of role that doesn’t come around often.
