Senior Project Manager

Mantel is developing innovative carbon capture technology aimed at reducing emissions across industries. The Senior Project Manager will oversee project execution from design to operation, coordinating with various stakeholders to ensure timely and efficient project delivery.

Responsibilities:

• Own the project schedule end-to-end: develop, maintain, and drive it — across internal teams, EPCs, vendors, and host-site stakeholders
• Track technical deliverables, identify risks early, and keep the team ahead of schedule rather than reacting to it
• Facilitate weekly status meetings and ensure clear, consistent communication across all project parties
• Coordinate with leadership on project staffing, resource planning, and budget tracking
• Review and track engineering deliverables: P&IDs, equipment specifications, QA/QC documentation, and engineering test procedures
• Coordinate across disciplines — I&C, mechanical, electrical, civil — to resolve interface issues and keep design progressing
• Ensure all technical work meets Mantel's standards and is complete before it moves to the next phase
• Support HAZOP execution and ensure safety compliance is embedded throughout the project lifecycle
• Serve as the day-to-day coordination point for EPCs, equipment vendors, and consultants
• Drive accountability on deliverables, timelines, and quality from all external parties
• Manage RFIs, submittals, and change orders with precision and a clear paper trail
• Work closely with the Commissioning Director to develop and execute commissioning plans
• Coordinate pre-commissioning activities, punch list close-out, and startup sequencing across all project parties
• Ensure the project transitions cleanly from construction into commissioning and from commissioning into operation
• Produce clear, concise project reports and updates for leadership and stakeholders
• Surface issues early with proposed solutions — not just status updates
• Keep internal teams aligned on priorities, decisions, and next steps

Requirements:

• 7+ years in project management or project engineering in an industrial setting, with at least one full commissioning or startup campaign
• B.Eng. or B.S. in Chemical, Mechanical, or a related engineering discipline
• Experience with coal, solid fuels, or high-temperature combustion processes is strongly preferred
• PMP designation is an asset
