About The Position

The Site Manager oversees the full lifecycle of on-site project delivery and is responsible for the entire scope of site activities during the ITO and/or OTR phase, acting under the direction and on behalf of the overall project leader. The role leads the site team and manages project scope execution, potentially across multiple sites. It directs site activities including civil work, mechanical erection, and commissioning, and manages resources, schedules, and stakeholder expectations. The Site Manager ensures schedule, quality, and cost comply with contractual obligations, company policy, local regulations, project goals, and corporate safety standards.

Site work takes place indoors and outdoors in varied weather conditions. The role is remote, with travel of up to 90% and no relocation assistance. The position offers a discretionary annual bonus and the benefits listed in the posting.
