About The Position

STV is seeking a Project Manager – Design Build (Aviation) for our Buildings group in NYC. This role leads the day-to-day management of the full multi-discipline project team on design-build aviation projects, overseeing architecture, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, and other subdiscipline coordination from a management standpoint alongside the Project Architect. The role manages the workplan, schedule, and cross-discipline coordination for the project, and receives project-level direction from the assigned Project Executive in Charge. In the design-build delivery environment, this role coordinates directly with the design-build entity’s project executive, superintendent, and trade contractors to align design decisions across all disciplines with a fast-track schedule where design and construction proceed concurrently. The Project Manager – Design Build builds and maintains the workplan for the full project team, sequencing design package releases against procurement and construction milestones across architecture, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, and specialty aviation subdisciplines, including those engaged for airfield, security, and FAA-related scope, to keep every discipline’s deliverables synchronized with the broader project schedule. This position requires a Registered Architect who can evaluate code-compliance and constructability implications directly in fast-moving coordination meetings, against active-airport phasing constraints and FAA, TSA, and airport authority requirements that affect design sequencing across all disciplines. The role schedules and runs project meetings and agendas across all disciplines, serves as the day-to-day client and design-build-entity contact for project management matters, and partners with the Project Architect and other discipline leads to confirm that staffing and production plans remain aligned with the schedule and fee budget.
