Senior Project Controls Manager
Management$200k–$240k/yrFull-time
We need to produce HTML fragment with headings
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We need to parse the posting.
The posting includes:
Overview: "We are seeking a Senior Project Controls Manager to join our team in San Francisco, CA."
Then "Your role" with a long list of duties (responsibilities). Then "About You" with qualifications (education, experience, skills). Then "Rewards & benefits" describing benefits. Then "About AtkinsRéalis" (company description) maybe not needed. Then "Additional information" includes Expected compensation range (Pay). Also maybe schedule? Not mentioned. No explicit schedule info. So we may not include Schedule section unless present. No schedule.
Thus sections: About the role (maybe we can call it About the role or Responsibilities). The instruction: use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We need to decide which headings to use based on content. We have responsibilities list, we have qualifications/requirements, we have skills, we have benefits, we have pay. Could also have About the role as a brief overview. The "Overview" could be About the role. Then responsibilities as separate section. Could combine but better to separate.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties listed, all qualifications, all benefits, pay range.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO, equal-opportunity, scam-warning, privacy notice, drug screen, background check, etc. Also remove "Additional information" maybe not needed except pay range. Also remove "About AtkinsRéalis" maybe not needed as it's company description but could be considered not substantive for the role? Might be considered boilerplate? It's describing the company; could be kept? The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. Company description may be considered not boilerplate but maybe not needed. However it's substantive info about the employer. Might be okay to keep but not required. Safer to include only sections that have role-specific content. The company description could be omitted as not required. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine company description into About the role? But better to keep only role-specific.
Thus sections:
- About the role (overview)
- Responsibilities (list of duties)
- Requirements (education + experience)
- Qualifications (maybe same as requirements? Could combine). But we have both "About You" includes degree, experience, skills. Could treat as Requirements and Qualifications combined. But we need to follow headings list; we can include Requirements and Qualifications if we have distinct content. The "About You" includes both education/experience and skills. Could split: Requirements (education + experience) and Qualifications (skills). Or we could have Skills section.
Let's parse "About You":
Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Accounting, Finance or a related field, plus ten years relevant experience. Must have strong cost management, scheduling, and project planning and estimating skills, as well as the communication skills necessary to interface with external engineering, architectural and construction firms, suppliers, the management team and other organizations within client organizations. Must be able to use A/E and CM cost and/or schedule information to evaluate project status. Must have experience in developing budgets, cash flows, financial analysis and/or schedules. Must be highly articulate, have clear and analytical approach to problem solving, and strong decision making abilities. Must have excellent communication and presentation skills. Must have thorough understanding of different types of contracts (Lump Sum, T&M'etc.) and its implications on Project Management and overall project risks. Working knowledge of industry standard software and ERP, Planning & Scheduling, and cost management applications. Experience with Primavera and Microsoft Project is preferred. Must be adept at managing large dataset, preparing trend curves and performance dashboards and performing statistical and financial analysis in MS Excel or equivalent solution. Must thoroughly understand and utilize Information Technology in the performance of work including Internet, Intranet, Microsoft Windows OS, Adobe Acrobat, Microsoft Office Suite and Microsoft Project. PMP – Project Management Professional (PMI) preferred.
Thus we can have:
- Requirements: Bachelor's degree ... plus ten years relevant experience.
- Qualifications: maybe the rest? Or Skills: list of skills.
But we also have a separate "Skills" heading possible. Could put skills under Skills.
Thus:
- About the role (overview paragraph)
- Responsibilities (ul list)
- Requirements (education + experience) (maybe as ul or p)
- Skills (ul list of skills)
- Benefits (ul list)
- Pay (p with salary range)
We should not include Schedule.
Now we need to preserve all substantive information. Let's extract responsibilities list from "Your role". It's a long paragraph with many duties separated by periods. We need to turn each duty into a list item. Must not lose any.
Let's parse the responsibilities text:
"Your role Manage staff coordination and workload, and directly supervise and mentor the Project Controls team as a subject matter expert.Manage, revise, and maintain the status of detailed project cost estimates and forecasts, including all phases of project execution from design/engineering, material and equipment procurement, construction contracts, start-up activities, and project closeout.Track and analyze project costs, including budgets, commitments, actuals, accruals, and forecasts using Earned Value Management (EVM) methodology.Perform forecast and variance analysis (cost and schedule), trend analysis, risk analysis, contingency reserve evaluation, and maintain issue logs.Participate in the development and continuous improvement of project controls systems.Recommend improvements to project controls systems, tools, methods, and project management practices.Establish project Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) in accordance with industry best practices.Assist in analyzing project controls requirements during the bid review process to ensure all cost control requirements are incorporated into contracts and purchase orders.Interact with project teams regarding cost codes, purchase order commitments, and change orders.Assist in creating detailed project budgets from estimates and developing cash flow projections.Work with senior project management staff to manage overall project cost control efforts.Collaborate with scheduling staff to develop, manage, revise, and update integrated project schedules covering all phases of project execution.Assist in the early identification of long-lead items, resource constraints, and required project start dates.Manage key project performance indicators and project commercial reporting.Manage internal job costing related to project fees, scope of services, resource requirements, job numbers, Project Status Reports (PSRs), and company reporting policies.Produce forecasts of total project costs, annual costs, and monthly cash flow costs, including variance analysis and supporting explanations.Manage the Risk Management process, including the identification, evaluation, mitigation, monitoring, and control of project risks.Assist in coordinating engineering and construction activities to align with overall project schedule requirements.Incorporate engineering and construction contractor schedules into the overall project schedule.Work with senior project management staff to ensure all contract deliverables and deadlines are achieved.Provide senior-level project management support, including financial and operational budgeting, forecasting, consolidation, analysis, business development, pricing, billing, and client/consultant relationship management.Perform other duties as assigned by the Supervisor."
We need to split each sentence (separated by periods) into list items. Ensure we keep the content.

1. Manage staff coordination and workload, and directly supervise and mentor the Project Controls team as a subject matter expert.

Now About You section: we need to extract requirements and skills.
Requirements: Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Accounting, Finance or a related field, plus ten years relevant experience.
