$75,000 + Training & Development + Excellent Benefits

Excellent opportunity for an Assistant Project Manager from an industrial mechanical background looking to step into a role with real responsibility, hands-on project exposure, and a clear development path toward becoming a Project Manager.

Are you coming from heavy piping work, large manufacturing facilities, production line installs, shutdowns, or fast-moving industrial projects?

Exposure : Work across the full project lifecycle, not just admin or tracking

Variety : Industrial projects that move fast and keep things interesting

Stability : Established contractor with consistent work and long-term planning

  • Working with General Contractors, Subcontractors, Inspectors, Designers, and technical teams
  • Assisting with new work pricing and change order estimates
  • Monitoring labor and material budgets
  • Keeping all project documentation and deliverables current
  • Supporting system troubleshooting, startups, and punch list close-out
  • Assisting with site inspections and quality control

What They’re Looking For

  • Background in industrial mechanical environments
  • Experience with heavy piping, manufacturing facilities, plant upgrades, or similar
  • Shipyard or mechanical military experience will be seriously considered
  • Strong organizational skills and a practical, problem-solving mindset
  • Preferred but not essential :

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering (or currently enrolled)
  • Experience in HVAC, plumbing, or piping environments
  • If you’re an Assistant Project Manager or mechanically minded professional looking to step into project delivery and grow long-term, this is exactly the kind of role that sets you up properly.

  • Clear progression into a Project Manager role
  • Stable workload and long-term career opportunity
