The Utilities Infrastructure Project Manager (Wastewater) delivers Havenpark’s wastewater infrastructure projects, including wastewater treatment plants, collection systems, tanks, and drainage, on budget and by the budgeted completion dates. The role owns each assigned project from scope definition through closeout, managing the engineers and contractors to completion. The wastewater portfolio currently includes about 53 open projects totaling $9.5 million.

Project Planning & Delivery

* Own a portfolio of wastewater projects from scope definition through closeout, finishing each on budget and on schedule, with no projects past due. * Define scope fully before bidding, including what is and is not included, so contractors price and plan the real work and change requests are rare. * Build the plan up front: lead times, agency review times, access and seasonal constraints, and potential start delays. Start early enough to finish on time. * Maintain project plans, milestones, and budgeted completion dates in project management software; flag risks early and recover projects that go past due. * Visit project sites as needed, and verify that work is actually complete and ready before marking a project complete. * Close out projects with final documentation, as-builts, warranties, and lessons learned.

Contractor & Engineer Management

* Manage engineers and contractors to completion on every assigned project, holding them accountable for quality, safety, schedule, and cost. * Walk contractors through the scope and schedule before they start and confirm their understanding in writing; manage bids, contracts, and change orders; and compare change requests against the survey, scope, and drawings before approving. * Engage engineers for design and construction on critical projects and other projects that require engineering; define their scopes of work, review designs and cost estimates, and review invoices and progress reports. * Select and develop a reliable bench of contractors in the assigned region and replace those who do not perform, with documented reasons.

Permitting & Regulatory Coordination

* Coordinate wastewater project permits, plan reviews, and approvals with state agencies and local authorities, in partnership with the Sr. Utilities Program Manager. * Build agency review time into every plan, respond quickly to agency comments, and confirm approvals and conditions are cleared before work starts. * Ensure projects are built and documented to meet regulatory requirements, and hand off completed systems and documentation to the Sr. Utilities Program Manager for ongoing compliance.
