Additional Information
ROLE PURPOSE The Senior Project Manager will lead delivery of Waste-to-Energy and related waste infrastructure projects in Singapore and the wider region. This is a "technical project manager" role: we expect our project managers to be strongly technically minded, to understand the engineering and commercial drivers, and to actively engage in the technical work - not just coordinate. The role combines (1) project management accountability (scope, schedule, budget, risk, quality), with (2) engineering design leadership, including coordinating and directing a multi-disciplinary engineering team and reviewing/challenging technical deliverables to ensure they are fit-for-purpose and compliant with project requirements. On projects where there is no separate Engineering/Design Manager, the Senior Project Manager is expected to assume design management responsibilities (design coordination, interfaces, integrated design schedule, cross-discipline alignment, and design reviews).
