Project Manager Building Automation Jobs in Rensselaer, NY

A pre-engineered metal building looks easy from the road. Four metal walls, a metal roof, a door. Basically a big metal box. How hard could it be, right?

  If you knew the answer was that a PEMB has thousands of engineered parts that have to be priced right, ordered right, and sequenced right - and that's all before they are handed off to an erector who needs to know how to put it up right...EDiS Building Systems (EBS) is on the search for a Project Manager specializing in Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings. The job? Overseeing the total pre-engineered construction effort so that each project is built to design, budget, schedule, and quality standards - from award through closeout.

YOUR PRIORITIES WILL BE:

Project Management: It is the job title after all. Own assigned PEMB projects from award through closeout - design, scope, budget, schedule, and quality.

  PEMB Expertise: Serve as the division's pre-engineered “Master Builder,” and lend that knowledge to other project teams when their work includes a Butler portion. Be the go-between for connecting Butler and project teams.

  Financial Performance: Protect Client and Company interests by managing budgets, buyout, change orders, and billing, and keeping your projects profitable.

  Coordination & Delivery: Keep vendors, subcontractors, and Butler manufacturing aligned so materials and building systems are delivered and erected on schedule.

  Client Relationships: Build the client, contractor, and design-team relationships that drive repeat business, and represent EBS well through closeout and warranty.
