• Represent NorthStar Energy Services in front of clients, contractors, and stakeholders while maintaining strong working relationships

• Proven ability to partner effectively with project managers, superintendents, engineering, project controls, procurement, and clients in fast-paced project environments
• Strong understanding of construction planning, scheduling, project controls, forecasting, and operational reporting
• Experience with Primavera P6, MS Project, or similar scheduling and cost-control platforms preferred
