Project Manager – Engineered Systems (Power & Utilities)
Job Description
Location: Remote: Reside close to (Exton, PA)
Portfolio: Allen‑Sherman‑Hoff (ASH) Engineered Material‑Handling Systems (ANDRITZ)
About the Role
Allen‑Sherman‑Hoff (ASH), an ANDRITZ business, delivers engineered material‑handling systems that support power generation, biomass, and pulp & paper facilities operating in demanding, continuous‑run environments. Although ASH is technically an OEM, we operate far more like an A&E/EPC engineering firm: we deliver system‑level engineered solutions, integrating ASH proprietary equipment with structural, mechanical, electrical, and quality requirements to meet strict performance expectations.
We are seeking a Project Manager with power, energy, utilities, or EPC/A&E engineered‑systems project experience, someone who has led large, customer‑facing technical projects through engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, quality, and site support.
If your background is in internal manufacturing operations, IT/telecom deployments, or continuous improvement, this role is not a match. We need a PM who understands industrial plant environments, engineered equipment, and the rigor of technical project delivery.
What You Will Do
Lead Full Lifecycle Execution (Sales Handover → Final Turnover)
- Own the delivery of engineered ASH material‑handling systems across power, biomass, and pulp & paper facilities.
- Drive engineering, drafting, and calculation packages to meet scope, schedule, and contractual requirements.
- Coordinate and unblock fabrication/manufacturing, ensuring manufacturability and compliance.
- Manage supplier RFQs, subcontractor performance, expediting, and logistics.
Quality & Technical Documentation Leadership
- Manage ITPs, weld maps, NDE requirements, pressure tests, dimensional checks, and documentation packages essential to engineered‑equipment delivery.
- Validate compliance to ASME/AWS, customer specifications, and ASH quality standards.
Schedule, Cost, and Risk Management
- Maintain schedule baselines using Primavera P6.
- Oversee cost performance, margin drivers, change control, and contract compliance.
- Identify and mitigate technical and execution risks early.
Customer‑Facing Project Leadership
- Serve as the primary interface between the customer and ANDRITZ technical teams.
- Prepare and deliver technical and commercial progress reports.
- Support site activities (FAT, readiness reviews, installation coordination, commissioning support).
What You Bring
Required
- Experience in A&E/EPC, power generation, utilities, or industrial engineered‑systems delivery.
- (Examples: material handling, conveying systems, rotating equipment, mechanical process systems, boiler/balance‑of‑plant equipment).
- Proven ability to lead engineering‑heavy, customer‑facing projects with strict contractual and QA requirements.
- Hands‑on coordination with engineering, fabrication, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and field service.
- Experience managing ITPs, weld maps, NDE, pressure tests, QA documentation, and technical turnover packages.
- Proficiency in Primavera P6 and Oracle or similar ERP.
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering/Construction Management OR 5+ years of relevant engineered‑systems PM experience.
Preferred
- Power plant, utilities, biomass, or pulp & paper industry experience.
- Background in ash handling, bulk material handling, or mechanical systems integration.
- PMP or CAPM certification.
- Experience with retrofit, outage, upgrade, or brownfield scopes.
Work Model
- Remote with periodic travel to Exton, PA, fabrication shops, and customer facilities for inspections, FATs, readiness reviews, and site support.
- Travel expected but varies by project phase.
Why This Role Matters
Your work directly affects the reliability, uptime, and environmental performance of major industrial facilities. When you execute well, a power plant runs cleaner, a pulp mill avoids downtime, and a customer sees ASH as a trusted engineering partner. This is real engineering impact, not back‑office project tracking.
