Job Description

A well-established global engineering and construction firm is seeking a Senior Program Manager based in Hawaii to lead and grow federal construction programs across the Indo-Pacific region.

This role is ideal for a senior construction leader who understands the realities of building in Hawaii and the Pacific — logistics, federal stakeholders, remote sites, labor constraints, and long-term client relationships. You'll oversee complex vertical and horizontal construction projects for U.S. Government clients while helping shape future work in the region.

What You'll Be Responsible For :

Federal Program & Project Delivery

Lead planning and execution of federal construction programs across Hawaiʻi, Guam, and the broader Indo-Pacific.
Define project scope, schedules, budgets, and delivery strategies based on Pacific-region experience.
Develop SOWs, WBSs, and execution plans aligned with federal contract requirements.
Ensure compliance with internal project controls, federal standards, and client expectations.

Risk, Cost & Schedule Management

Identify and manage risks related to logistics, labor availability, schedule constraints, and cost escalation.

Own program and project financial performance, including budgets, forecasts, billing, and profitability.

Review client invoices and subcontractor / vendor payments.

Manage scope and schedule changes using formal change management processes.

Client & Relationship Management

Act as a trusted delivery partner to federal clients in the Pacific.

Manage expectations and ensure high-quality, on-time project delivery.

Identify opportunities for change orders, repeat work, and program expansion.

Support pre-positioning, pursuit, scoping, and costing for future federal construction opportunities.

Team Leadership & Resource Management

Lead multidisciplinary teams including local staff, mainland support, and Pacific-based subcontractors.

Develop staffing plans and coordinate resources across multiple locations.

Provide direction, mentorship, and performance feedback to project teams.

Escalate performance, schedule, or risk issues as appropriate.

Safety, Quality & Compliance

Ensure safety planning reflects Hawaiʻi and Pacific site conditions.

Support internal and external audits and address corrective actions.

Ensure compliance with federal, client, and regulatory requirements.

What Were Looking For :

Bachelor's degree or equivalent related experience.

15+ years of construction project or program management experience.

Must have experience leading 25million+ projects

Strong background in federal construction (vertical and / or horizontal).

Experience working in Hawaii, Guam, or other Pacific locations.

PMP (PMI), CCM, or DBIA certification (or ability to obtain within 12 months).

Willingness to travel across the Pacific (30-40%).

Valid driver's license.
