What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging project management role that leverages my expertise in resource management, financial oversight, and team leadership to drive project success.

As a seasoned Project Manager with 20 years of experience, I have honed my skills in organizing business operations, financial oversight, and resource management to achieve smooth project operations. My expertise lies in leading procurement of resources, monitoring projects, and managing production teams to ensure timely delivery within budget constraints. I am knowledgeable in accounting principles, budget, and financial management, and have a proven track record of improving efficiency, assessing risks, and providing targeted solutions.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed projects from procurement to commission, achieving gross margins of up to 30%. I have also developed and initiated projects, managed costs, and monitored performance to meet organizational goals. My ability to coordinate with contractors, manage complex problems, and work closely with senior leaders has enabled me to deliver high-profile projects within strict timeframes and budget constraints.

I am a certified Procore user, holding certifications in Core Tools, Financial Management, Project Management, Quality & Safety. I am also ASHRAE Certified in HVAC & Controls and OSHA 30 certified, demonstrating my commitment to quality, safety, and efficiency in project management.
