About the role

Remarkable people, trusted by clients to design and advance the world. We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead and coordinate small to mid range projects within the fertilizers (phosphate, ammonia, urea) and mining & metals sectors (aluminum, gold, copper). This position is office based, with primary responsibilities focused on engineering oversight, project planning, technical coordination, cost and schedule control, procurement support, and stakeholder alignment. The role manages projects through concept development, feasibility assessment, basic engineering, detailed design oversight, procurement follow up, and preparation for execution, ensuring that all engineering deliverables meet quality, cost, and schedule objectives. This position does not involve direct construction management; instead, it emphasizes office-driven project leadership with strong coordination between engineering teams, internal departments, and site representatives. Occasional short visits may be required for specific technical reviews.
