About the Role
We’re seeking a Project Manager with strong customer-facing experience to join a growing manufacturing organization serving large-scale data center projects. This role is responsible for managing projects post–purchase order (PO) — maintaining communication with clients, ensuring timelines stay on track, and coordinating across internal teams to ensure seamless project delivery.
This position is not an engineering-focused project management role, but rather a commercial, customer-oriented position that blends organization, communication, and problem-solving in a fast-paced environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the main point of contact for customers after PO receipt, ensuring clear and timely communication.
- Monitor project milestones, track timelines, and coordinate deliverables with internal departments.
- Audit project progress and ensure alignment with customer expectations.
- Facilitate professional correspondence and progress reports for clients.
- Collaborate closely with internal sales, service, and marketing teams to support end-to-end project success.
- Review project documentation and follow up on key meetings and updates.
- Support multi-million dollar projects within the data center industry.
Must-Have Qualifications
- Strong customer service orientation with professional communication skills.
- Proven experience managing projects in a discrete manufacturing environment.
- High sense of urgency and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic setting.
- Self-starter who takes initiative and builds processes where needed.
- Experience with Made2Manage or similar ERP systems.
- Ability to collaborate across multiple teams and manage client relationships effectively.
- Open mindset — excited to contribute to a growing company and help shape its culture.
Nice-to-Have
- PMP certification (not required).
- Experience in large-scale or data center-related manufacturing.
- Familiarity with multiple plant or multi-brand operations.
Additional Details
- Reports to: Senior Commercial Leader
- Location: Remote; preference for candidates based near Marietta, OH.
- Relocation: May be considered on a case-by-case basis.
- Compensation: $90,000–$120,000 (potential flexibility for the right candidate).
