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.

*All qualified applicants will receive consideration without regard to protected characteristics.
