Working day to day with Engineering, Operations, Sales, PSC, and the manufacturing plant, this role converts business priorities into integrated schedules, defined scopes, clear owners, and visible milestones. The Project Manager also owns the status reporting that gives leadership a consistent view of project health, cost, and risk.\nThis role delivers disciplined, repeatable project execution: realistic timelines, early visibility of risk, and closed-loop follow-through across functions. The Project Manager does not hold technical design authority (retained by Engineering), plant production ownership (held by Manufacturing and Operations), or commercial authority (held by Sales); the role owns the plan, the coordination, and the evidence that each project is on track.\n Project Planning, Scheduling & Execution\nPrimary Skills: Project Management\nProject Planning\nSchedule Management\nResource Coordination\nScope Management\nDefine project scope, deliverables, work breakdown structures, milestones, and critical-path schedules in partnership with project sponsors and functional leads.\n\nDrive execution against plan across Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, Sales, and PSC; adjust sequencing as constraints change and communicate schedule impacts early.\n\nCoordinate materials, plant capacity, labor, test, and equipment availability at the Magnolia facility so commitments are based on confirmed readiness rather than assumed dates.\n\nMaintain a single source of truth for project status, dependencies, owners, and due dates that leadership and partner functions can rely on.\n\nRun project kickoffs, working sessions, and close-out retrospectives with clear agendas, decisions, and tracked actions.\n\nManufacturing & Product Delivery Coordination\nPrimary Skills: Manufacturing Operations Knowledge\nOperational Readiness\nQuality Management\nSupply Chain Coordination\nDocumentation\nCoordinate project work with plant leadership, production, supply chain, and quality so build, test, and shipment schedules reflect actual capacity and material availability.\n\nTrack engineering releases, bills of materials, long-lead procurement, build progress, test and inspection results, and shipment readiness against project milestones.\n\nFacilitate handoffs between Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, and PSC (for example, design release to build, build to test, and delivery to field support), documenting accountability, open items, and acceptance decisions.\n\nEscalate readiness gaps with a clear recommendation, impact assessment, and proposed owner rather than carrying unresolved risk forward.\n\nRisk, Issue & Change Management\nPrimary Skills: Risk Assessment\nIssue Management\nRoot Cause Analysis\nChange Management\nCorrective Action Planning\nMaintain risk, issue, and dependency registers for active projects; assess schedule, safety, quality, cost, and customer impact; and drive mitigations to closure.\n\nSupport root-cause analysis and corrective and preventive actions for project issues, quality escapes, and repeat problems, coordinating technical input from Engineering, Manufacturing, and PSC.\n\nManage scope, schedule, and cost change through a documented change-control process, including impact analysis and stakeholder approval.\n\nCapture lessons learned from every project and track assigned improvements through to completion.\n\nCross-Functional Coordination & Stakeholder Alignment\nPrimary Skills: Cross-functional Teamwork\nStakeholder Management\nProject Integration\nMeeting Facilitation\nRelationship Management\nServe as the day-to-day coordination point between Engineering, Operations, Sales, PSC, and the manufacturing plant, aligning departmental plans, milestones, and dependencies into one integrated project schedule.\n\nRun recurring cross-functional project reviews to assess progress, surface dependencies and conflicts, confirm owners and dates, and track decisions and actions to closure.\n\nPartner with Sales and PSC to translate customer requirements, commitments, and field feedback into project scope and priorities, and communicate project status back with accuracy and transparency.\n\nResolve conflicting priorities and resource requests with peers at the working level and escalate those that require leadership decisions.\n\nStatus Reporting, Cost Tracking & Executive Communication\nPrimary Skills: Reporting\nBudget & Cost Tracking\nTotal Cost of Ownership Analysis\nData Visualization\nPresentation Development\nCreate and issue recurring status reports on project progress, covering schedule, milestones, budget and cost, risks, issues, decisions needed, and customer impact.\n\nTrack project budgets, actual spend, and forecasts, and perform total cost of ownership analysis to inform scope, design, make-or-buy, and prioritization decisions.\n\nConsolidate inputs from functional leads into consistent, accurate reporting, validating data and resolving discrepancies before it reaches leadership.\n\nDevelop executive-ready presentations and dashboards for leadership reviews that lead with the message, the risk, and the ask.\n\nMaintain a clear reporting cadence and templates so status is predictable, comparable across projects, and available without ad hoc requests.\n\nProcess Standardization & Continuous Improvement\nPrimary Skills: Business Process Documentation\nKnowledge Management\nContinuous Process Improvement\nLean / Six Sigma\nPerformance Metrics\nDevelop and maintain project playbooks, checklists, templates, and project artifacts that make project execution repeatable across the facility.\n\nTrack and report project metrics such as schedule adherence, on-time delivery, budget variance, open action items, and rework.\n\nContribute to continuous-improvement initiatives that reduce rework, shorten lead times, and improve consistency between Engineering, the plant, and field operations.\n\nDocument lessons learned and standard work so knowledge is retained and shared across project teams.\n\n NON-ESSENTIAL (ADDITIONAL) FUNCTIONS\nSupport customer, sales, and executive reviews by attending, capturing decisions and actions, and following up on commitments.\n\nParticipate in plant walkthroughs, engineering design reviews, test activities, and field visits as needed to maintain current operational context.\n\nSupport business cases, budgets, cost tracking, and resource forecasts related to project activities.\n\nPerform other project coordination and support activities consistent with the role and business needs.\n\n MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS\nBachelor's degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Industrial, or Manufacturing), Business (Business Administration, Operations, or Supply Chain Management), or a related discipline; equivalent relevant experience may be considered.\n\n5+ years of project management experience delivering multi-stakeholder technical or operational projects in an industrial, engineering, or manufacturing setting.\n\nRelated industry experience in manufacturing, energy services, or a comparable engineering- or equipment-driven environment.\n\nDemonstrated ability to build and manage integrated schedules, budgets, risk registers, and status reporting using standard project tools (e.g., MS Project, Smartsheet, Primavera, or equivalent).\n\nWorking knowledge of quality, safety, and HSE requirements in an industrial or manufacturing environment.\n\nDemonstrated ability to coordinate with peers and technical leads across Engineering, Operations, Sales, and supporting functions without direct authority.\n\nStrong written and verbal communication skills, including experience producing recurring status reports and executive presentations for senior leaders.\n\nAdvanced proficiency in PowerPoint and Excel; working proficiency with a project-scheduling tool.\n\nAbility to work on site at the Magnolia facility, with occasional domestic travel to customer, field, or other company locations as business needs require.\n\n PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS\nPMP, CAPM, or equivalent project-management certification.\n\nDirect experience in a manufacturing plant environment, including build, assembly, test, quality, or production planning processes.\n\nOil and gas, drilling, or energy services industry experience, ideally with drilling equipment or rig technology products.\n\nExperience with engineered-to-order or new product introduction programs, including prototype-to-production transitions.\n\nExperience with Lean, Six Sigma, root-cause analysis, change management, or stage-gate/readiness-gate frameworks.\n\nFamiliarity with ERP and reporting tools (e.g., Oracle, Power BI, Excel) for tracking cost, resources, and project metrics, including cost tracking and total cost of ownership analysis.","description_format":"text","description_chars":8939,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":5,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Industrial Machinery","Oil & Gas"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-13T17:19:25Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":44,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.591,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":27,"expected_fill_days":37,"reasons":["conf:0","stale_co","win:late","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-10T06:52:35Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/nabors-industries-project-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/nabors-industries-project-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-10T17:02:49Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":5230,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-11T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":1046501},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=1046501"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnabors-industries-project-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnabors-industries-project-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnabors-industries-project-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/nabors-industries-project-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnabors-industries-project-manager"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2460804}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"nabors.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2460804},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people);
