The role owns the site execution system, interface with GC(s) and key vendors on safety, schedule, scope, cost tracking, quality, change management and readiness/turnover. Work requires operating under ambiguity, establishing disciplined operating cadence (daily/weekly), escalating early with options and recommendations, and providing executive-ready reporting. Erroneous decisions or delayed escalation can have significant impact to safety, schedule, cost and customer commitments.

• Drives change management discipline: identification, documentation, impact framing and escalation for approval per governance.
• Drives readiness/handover gates: commissioning readiness, punch list discipline, documentation/closeout.
• Produces weekly executive reporting in a concise format including schedule status, risks/mitigations, decisions needed, cost tracking control, change orders, key constraints.
• Coordinates with site stakeholders (Facilities, EHS, Operations, IT/Controls as applicable) to remove constraints and enable execution.
• Applies safety leadership and compliance mindset, reinforces stop-work authority and ensures execution aligns with Celestica EHS expectations.

Qualifications

• Strong knowledge of construction delivery execution (GC operations, trade coordination, RFIs/submittals/change controls, punch/closeout).
• Demonstrated ability to run look-ahead planning, enforce commitments, and drive schedule recovery.
• Strong vendor control mindset (RFP participation/contractor selection support as needed, performance tracking, escalation discipline).
• Commissioning/turnover readiness experience in compliance-heavy environments (EHS focus).
• Effective communication: concise, structured updates, escalates early with options and recommendations.
• High ownership, comfortable operating independently on site and driving results through partners.
• Strong stakeholder management across internal functions and external partners.

Requirements

• Typically 7+ years of experience in construction delivery/owner’s rep/GC project management on industrial or similar builds (manufacturing, warehouses, mission-critical or comparable complexity).
• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field, or consideration of an equivalent combination of education and experience.
