Technical background in industrial controls or automation is preferred only to understand our customers and projects; this role does not involve engineering deliverables. The Project Manager will be responsible for understanding and upholding Avanceon's project execution process to lead a team of engineers in the successful delivery of customer projects. The Project Manager works closely with a designated Project Technical Lead; the two roles share responsibility for the project, with the Project Manager owning the commercial aspects and the Technical Lead owning technical delivery and quality.

Ability to partner closely with a Project Technical Lead while maintaining accountability for commercial outcomes
Ability to travel occasionally to customer sites for in-person meetings, project reviews, and startup support
Comfort working in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities and multiple active customers

Responsibilities

Manage scope, schedule, risk, quality, and financial performance for each project (risk and financial management are core responsibilities)
Drive, monitor, and document all aspects of the project execution process
Lead clear, concise, and accurate communication among project team members and customers
Protect project profitability through active budget management, forecasting, and change control
Identify risks early, address issues with urgency, and navigate difficult conversations to maintain project health

Benefits

Yes, we offer all the usual benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401K contributions, etc., but what makes Avanceon different from the rest?
Most importantly, we have cool and talented people. Avanceon associates and the culture they create are what make us great - for each other, and our customers.
We also have flex hours, work-from-home opportunities, a casual dress code, a playful and professional work environment, book clubs, social gatherings, oh yeah, let's not forget professional growth too, freedom to work the way you work, diverse customers and industries (you'll never be bored!), easy and fun ways to donate to charities, were parties mentioned? …And that's just the beginning of the list!
Note about Remote Associates: At Avanceon, we value our remote associates just as much as our on-site team members. Our company culture is inclusive and supportive, and we make sure that all of our remote employees feel like they are part of the team, whether that is virtually or by traveling to join us in the office. If you're looking for a remote position where you'll be treated like a valued team member, then Avanceon is the perfect place for you.
