Job Description:
Primary Purpose Of Position This position is responsible for
providing direct project management for Capital Improvement
Projects ( CIP ) and Repair and Renovation (R&R) projects,
ensuring they are completed on schedule, within established
budgets, and in compliance with Federal, State, and local building
codes as well as University standards. The role supports the
University’s mission by ensuring capital improvements are executed
with minimal disruption to ongoing campus operations. As a Project
Manager, the position manages multiple, complex capital improvement
projects simultaneously. These Informal and Formal Capital Projects
may be valued at up to $120M and are moderately complex and highly
technical in nature. Projects include modifications and
enhancements to the University’s educational and work environments
and require significant planning, funding, and coordination to
implement. Project types vary widely and may include new
construction of buildings and infrastructure, renovations of
existing facilities, and upgrades to building systems. Examples
include boiler replacements, roofing systems, underground
utilities, new building construction, interior renovations,
stormwater basins, parking lots, telecommunications and data
centers, laboratory research facilities, multi-purpose spaces,
landscaping, fire alarm and security systems, HVAC equipment and
controls, and Life Safety systems—representative of the full range
of facilities found in a higher-education environment. This
position has direct responsibility for the administration and
coordination of all contracts, consultants, and professional
service providers associated with each assigned project. The role
requires the ability to anticipate and prepare for emerging needs;
manage multiple projects simultaneously; assess and prioritize
project urgency; set goals and develop actionable project plans;
and schedule resources to meet objectives with minimal oversight.
Additionally, the position requires working knowledge of contract
delivery methods governed by the Office of State
Construction—including Construction Management at Risk—and the
ability to evaluate project issues and provide timely
recommendations to support project progress.
