The Project Controls Director is a key leadership role responsible for integrating and overseeing cost control, schedule control, and document control functions across a portfolio of greenfield capital projects. This leader will design, implement, and manage the systems, processes, and tools that ensure transparency, accountability, and performance alignment throughout the full project lifecycle—from initiation through commissioning. The role offers an opportunity to help establish project controls infrastructure for a rapidly expanding advanced manufacturing platform.

Position Responsibilities

Cost Control

Lead financial planning and forecasting for capital projects, including budget development, cost tracking, and variance analysis.

Oversee implementation of cost management systems (e.G., Ares Prism, EcoSys), ensuring data accuracy and integration with ERP systems.

Collaborate with finance and accounting teams on accruals, capital appropriation requests, and compliance with asset management requirements.

Deliver executive-level reporting on project financial health, earned value, and cost performance indicators.

Schedule Control

Direct the development and maintenance of integrated project schedules using tools such as Primavera P6, MS Project, or Smartsheet.

Monitor schedule progress, identify critical path risks, and support recovery planning in partnership with project managers and contractors.

Ensure adherence to contractual schedule requirements and coordinate milestone tracking across engineering, procurement, and construction activities.

Document Control

Lead the development and deployment of document control systems aligned with applicable quality and compliance standards.

Ensure secure, traceable, and compliant management of project documentation, including drawings, records, and standardized forms.

Coordinate with engineering and operations teams to maintain document integrity from receipt through distribution and archival.

Support development of training matrices and onboarding documentation for capital project personnel.

Leadership and Integration

Manage and mentor a team of project controls professionals, fostering collaboration and continuous improvement.

Serve as a strategic partner to project managers to support proactive issue resolution and performance optimization.

Develop dashboards and reporting tools that provide real-time visibility into project status, risks, and KPIs.

Participate in end-of-project reviews to capture lessons learned and drive continuous improvement.

Other Functions

Occasional travel to subcontractor or project locations.

Perform additional duties as assigned.

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Business, Finance, Construction Management, or related discipline.

7+ years of experience in project controls for capital-intensive industrial projects.

Demonstrated expertise in cost, schedule, and document control systems and methodologies.

Proficiency with ERP and project controls tools such as SAP, Ares Prism, Hexagon EcoSys, Primavera P6, and Microsoft Office Suite.

Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.

Ability to perform in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.

Desired Qualifications

Exceptional leadership, communication, and influencing skills.

Ability to work effectively with and influence cross-functional stakeholders.

Professional certifications such as PMP, CCP, or equivalent.

Experience with greenfield manufacturing or infrastructure projects.

Familiarity with AACE and PMI best practices.

Advanced Excel and data visualization capabilities.

Experience with document control systems such as COREWORX, PROCORE, OMNEX, or HEXAGON EcoSys.
