• Identify constraints and schedule risks early and implement recovery strategies including resequencing alternate work fronts manpower supplementation shift adjustments and other mitigation measures.
• Evaluate RFIs submittals design revisions procurement delays labor availability field changes and unforeseen conditions for impacts to sequencing and critical milestones.
• Verify work-front readiness by confirming required engineering information materials manpower equipment access predecessor work permits safety requirements quality requirements and client approvals are in place before scheduled activities begin.
• Monitor manpower materials equipment logistics information and available work fronts to support project objectives and scheduled milestones.
• Adapt priorities sequencing resources and coordination efforts as schedules client requirements operational constraints and field conditions change.
• Support implementation of project Safety Quality Loss Prevention Logistics and Construction Execution requirements.
• Identify scope gaps overlaps out-of-scope work field conditions and changes that may create cost schedule or contractual exposure and communicate them to project leadership.
• Support documentation and evaluation of changes directives differing conditions and other issues affecting project cost schedule or contractual obligations.
• Support implementation of the project Quality Control Program and timely resolution of deficiencies.
• Begin close-out planning early and coordinate construction completion with punch-list testing startup turnover as-built documentation and client operational requirements.
• Represent Century 3 professionally and maintain accountability for commitments made to the client and project team.

Semiconductor Cleanroom and Active Facility Execution

Read and interpret contract documents drawings specifications scopes of work schedules RFIs submittals and subcontract requirements necessary to coordinate field execution.
• Lead project meetings schedule reviews subcontractor meetings coordination sessions and presentations to communicate priorities constraints responsibilities commitments and required actions.
• Requires exceptional ability to collaborate with both high-level design engineers and field-level foremen under fast-paced project schedules. Excellent verbal and written communication skills; ability to articulate technical data clearly to both internal teams and external stakeholders.

The above description covers the principal duties and responsibilities of the position. It shall not be construed as a complete listing of all miscellaneous incidental or similar duties that may be required based on changing project conditions and operational needs.

A minimum of four years of construction management experience is preferred or four to six years of progressive construction related trade and field leadership experience. Previous experience as a Construction Manager Superintendent Assistant Superintendent Field Engineer or comparable field-management position is desired. Experience managing semiconductor cleanroom advanced manufacturing pharmaceutical mission-critical or similarly complex construction projects is strongly preferred.

Experience working within union construction environments including Project Labor Agreements collective bargaining requirements trade jurisdictions and labor coordination is preferred.Strong working proficiency with Procore is preferred. Candidate must have the ability to effectively manage and track project documentation drawings RFIs submittals and field information necessary to support construction execution.

WORKING CONDITIONS

Work will be performed on an active construction site semiconductor manufacturing facility cleanroom. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) must be worn in accordance with Century 3 client regulatory and project requirements.

This position requires regular and sustained field presence and the ability to perform the essential functions of the position with or without reasonable accommodation. Essential functions include routinely walking active construction areas; standing for extended periods; navigating uneven surfaces stairs ladders and temporary access routes; accessing elevated and congested work areas; working indoors and outdoors in varying environmental conditions; wearing required PPE; and safely accessing areas necessary to inspect coordinate and manage construction activities. The Construction Manager must be capable of maintaining situation awareness communicating effectively with project personnel responding to changing field conditions and safely performing required field responsibilities within an active construction and operating facility environment.
