Construction Management Technology Jobs in Ohio (NOW HIRING)

We are seeking a Field Construction Management Director to join our team in TX, AL, VA, PA, OH, IN, and WI.

Our Pharmaceutical team is growing! The Field Construction Management Director serves as the owner's primary field representative across a major pharmaceutical manufacturing campus. This role provides independent owner-side oversight of construction execution activities, ensuring work is progressing safely, efficiently, and in accordance with approved quality standards, commissioning requirements, and overall program objectives. Unlike traditional contractor-led construction management positions, this role represents the owner's interests in the field by validating progress, monitoring quality performance, identifying emerging execution risks, and ensuring readiness for turnover and startup activities. The position provides objective verification of contractor performance while supporting collaboration across engineering, construction, CQV, startup, and operations teams. Success in this role is measured by the accuracy of progress reporting, effectiveness of quality oversight, timely resolution of field issues, reduction of rework, and successful transition of systems into commissioning and operational readiness. This is a unique opportunity to help shape and lead one of the largest pharmaceutical manufacturing investments in North America while working alongside industry-leading professionals on a career-defining program on a greenfield campus. We are offering a full-time position with AtkinsRealis that provides the opportunity to lead complex, high-profile programs, collaborate with world-class delivery teams, and receive a highly competitive compensation package with robust benefits.
