Project Manager (5Days) Civil / Marine / Building (GeotechnicalOversight)

About the Role : Leading contractor on a newly awarded design & build project.

The ideal project manager should come from a main contractor background and solid geotechnical insight to lead project execution and coordinate geotechnical solutioning.

As the Project Manager, you will lead the delivery of civil / building / marine works under a design & build environment. A key part of the role involves providing high-level geotechnical input - advising on suitable construction methods based on soil conditions, ground loading, and cost / time considerations .

You are not expected to perform detailed geotechnical design or calculations, but must be able to :

• Review and interpret PE drawings
• Assess proposed solutions for feasibility and constructability
• Coordinate closely with geotechnical consultants and design teams
• Guide overall technical direction to meet site and budget constraints

You should should have high-level geotechnical solutioning knowledge -understanding types of solutions, cost / time impacts, and soil / loading conditions-but not be responsible for detailed design / calculations , which the design team handles.

Key Responsibilities :

• Lead and manage end-to-end construction activities for the shipyard design & build project.
• Possess high-level understanding of various geotechnical solutions, including their relative cost, time implications, and suitability based on soil conditions and loading.
• Review and interpret geotechnical design drawings and calculations provided by consultants; coordinate with the geotechnical design team to resolve issues and align construction methods.
• Provide practical construction feedback and guidance on geotechnical matters without being responsible for producing detailed design or calculations.
• Collaborate closely with consultants, subcontractors, and internal teams to ensure smooth integration of geotechnical solutions into construction plans.
• Monitor project progress, manage risks, and ensure compliance with safety, quality, and client requirements.

Qualifications & Experience :

• Minimum 5 years' experience in main contractor roles, managing civil, building, or infrastructure projects.
• Solid understanding of geotechnical engineering concepts relevant to construction (foundations, retaining structures, soil and loading conditions).
• Experience reviewing and interpreting geotechnical design deliverables, but not producing detailed designs themselves.
• Proven ability to coordinate with geotechnical consultants and design teams.
• Degree or Diploma in Civil Engineering or related discipline or specialized knowledge in geotechnical engineering.
