About the role

We are seeking a project manager to lead end-to-end new warehouse construction projects in the U.S., with deep expertise in safety compliance, permitting, licensing, and OSHA standards. This role requires cross-time-zone availability (e.g., Asia-Pacific and Europe), and strong stakeholder coordination skills to drive cross-functional teams toward on-time project delivery. The position may evolve to lead a team based on business needs.

Responsibilities

  • New Warehouse Construction Management – Lead site selection, design, construction, and handover, managing budget, schedule, and quality. Coordinate with landlords, general contractors, design firms, and inspectors to ensure compliance with building codes.
  • Licensing & Permitting – Drive all government permit applications (building, occupancy, environmental, etc.). Interface with municipal, fire, environmental, and other regulatory agencies to ensure legal compliance pre- and post-construction.
  • Safety & OSHA Compliance – Develop and enforce site-specific safety plans in full compliance with OSHA standards. Conduct safety training, regular inspections, incident investigations, and corrective actions to foster a zero-incident culture.
  • Team & Cross-Functional Coordination – In the future, build and lead a project team (engineers, safety officers, external consultants) as business needs grow. Drive internal departments (Supply Chain, Legal, Finance, Operations, IT) to deliver against project milestones. Coordinate across time zones (e.g., Asia, Europe) to align U.S. site activities with global stakeholders.
  • Timeline & Results Management – Develop detailed project plans (WBS, critical path, resource calendars) and track progress rigorously. Proactively identify risks (permitting delays, safety violations, supply chain disruptions) and implement mitigation plans.
  • Communication & Reporting – Provide regular status updates, risk assessments, and decision points to leadership.

  • Deep working knowledge of OSHA standards.
  • Expert knowledge of U.S. warehouse permitting processes (building, fire, environmental, etc.).
  • Proficiency with project management tools (MS Project, Smartsheet, Jira, etc.).
  • Ability to work across time zones (e.g., regular calls with Asia/Europe teams), strong driver mindset (ability to influence peer departments without formal authority to meet deadlines), excellent stakeholder management (government officials, contractors, internal executives), and detail-oriented with a big-picture perspective.
