Galaxy•Dallas, TX

10d•Remote

About The Position

Galaxy Digital Inc. is seeking a seasoned Project Controls professional to manage schedule, cost, change, and documentation on large-scale, mission-critical construction programs, ideally in data centers. The role requires a critical eye for schedule analysis, change order evaluation, and risk identification. The ideal candidate will be comfortable interacting with general contractors, design consultants, finance, and leadership, and will be able to present complex information clearly and concisely. This role involves thinking in systems, integrating cost, schedule, risk, and change into a holistic view of program health, and operating effectively in a dynamic environment with shifting scope and high stakes.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Finance, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
7+ years of project controls or construction management experience on large-scale, complex programs; mission-critical or data center experience required.
Proven experience managing schedule on the owner's side, including oversight of scheduling consultants and review of GC-maintained schedules.
Deep, hands-on command of CPM scheduling and Primavera P6 — enough to interrogate a schedule, not just read one.
Demonstrated experience owning the change order process, including verification and direct negotiation with general contractors.
Strong working knowledge of construction contracts and GMP structures (AIA A133/A201 or similar).
Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contract documents.
Excellent negotiation and communication skills, with the ability to hold GCs accountable and brief executives with equal credibility.
Ability to manage controls across multiple concurrent projects in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

Nice To Haves

Experience in data centers or other schedule-driven sectors where downtime is critical.

Responsibilities

Manage third-party scheduling consultants who review, analyze, and maintain the master schedule, setting expectations for quality, cadence, and reporting.
Work directly with general contractors to review and validate their schedules — testing logic, durations, critical path, float, and sequencing against owner milestones.
Own schedule health reporting to leadership, giving a clear, honest picture of progress, risk, and forecast, and escalating issues before they become delays.
Own the change order process end-to-end: intake, review, verification, negotiation, and resolution.
Critically evaluate change orders for scope, pricing, and schedule impact — verifying quantities, labor, markups, and backup rather than taking submissions at face value.
Negotiate change orders directly with the general contractor to protect Galaxy's cost and schedule position.
Represent Galaxy in weekly change and progress meetings with the GC, driving accountability and timely closure of open items.
Maintain a complete, auditable change order log reconciled against the project budget and GMP.
Serve as the bridge between field/GC reality and Finance's cost picture, ensuring both tell the same story.
Own documentation control for active projects — RFIs, submittals, change documentation, meeting records, and contractual correspondence.
Establish and improve project controls standards, templates, reporting, and governance across the portfolio.
