  4. Negotiate contracts, create budgets, and develop cost projections that set projects up for financial success.
  5. Execute timely buyout and lead closeout within 90 days with zero Day 2 items.
  6. Mentor and develop Project Managers, Assistant PMs, and Project Engineers — growing the next generation of Barringer leaders.
  7. Anticipate challenges 2–3 years out and help teams navigate risk before it lands on a jobsite.
  8. Represent Barringer in client meetings, interviews, and presentations with the polish and presence our clients expect.
