Full Time
Job Summary Under the general direction of the Associate Director of Project Delivery, Health Design and Construction, the Sr. Project Manager (PM) is accountable for project management services to ensure design and construction projects are on schedule, within budget, high‑quality, cost‑effective, and appropriate to client program needs. The PM simultaneously manages multiple projects of various sizes in the challenging healthcare construction environment. Services include all elements of project management from concept through project close‑out—including initial scoping, budgeting, funding, procurement, construction management and close‑out of large and small projects.
The PM organizes, plans, and controls the design and construction efforts on projects ranging from $50,000 to $70,000,000. This involves selecting professional design staff (architects and engineers), general contractors and subcontractors, coordinating the activities of clients, construction inspectors, and others associated with the projects; managing project progress to achieve overall project objectives consistent with department standards and in alignment with customer expectations—including budget, cost and quality; resolving problems that arise in the projects; working with state agency officials to ensure compliance and safety. The PM has a first line responsibility to communicate effectively with project stakeholders regarding program, budget, schedule, and construction impact.
This position requires onsite work a minimum of four days per week and more as needed.
The project manager utilizes internal project management tools and systems to monitor progress, control schedules and budgets, generate timely reports, and maintain comprehensive records throughout the project lifecycle. Accurate data entry and updates support transparent communication, audit readiness, and informed decision‑making.

The PM administers consultant and construction agreements, facilitates quality control, maintains design and construction schedules, and fulfills owner‑representative responsibilities.
PM leads the developmental stage of capital projects to assure that project scope, schedule, and phasing are adequately defined. The PM defines working criteria for a proposed project, determines hazardous materials, infection control, phasing of work, and fire and life‑safety requirements that are necessary. The PM estimates design review efforts to assure project documentation is sufficient to minimize cost overruns during construction. PM coordinates inspectors, state agencies (e.g., OSHPD), the contractor and university representatives to ensure code compliance and quality of work and prepares documentation for occupancy or approval.
