Delta Oaks Group is seeking an individual to lead and coordinate A&E projects in the telecom vertical. Typical responsibilities include but are not limited to A&E design and production, project coordination, schedule and resource management, client communication, and supporting project management activities associated with turnkey A&E projects in the telecommunications industry. The Project Lead is intended to serve as a bridge between technical design and full project management responsibilities. This position will lead assigned projects or project components under the direction of a Project Manager while developing the skills necessary to independently manage projects. The selected individual should have a strong technical foundation and demonstrated ability to coordinate people, information, schedules, and deliverables with limited day-to-day supervision. Positional Responsibilities The A&E Project Lead coordinates and contributes to the production and execution of assigned projects from initiation through completion. Working under the direction of a Project Manager, this position is responsible for maintaining project progress, coordinating resources, supporting client communication, and ensuring project deliverables meet established schedule and quality expectations.

Depending on assigned projects and the development of the department and role, this position may coordinate the work of Designers and other technical resources. The Project Lead is expected to remain technically involved while progressively taking greater ownership of project execution and management responsibilities.

Anticipated tasks include but are not limited to:

Coordinate day-to-day execution of assigned A&E projects and project components
Review project scope, client requirements, schedules, deliverables, and project priorities
Coordinate Designers and other internal resources to support project execution
Develop and maintain project schedules, task assignments, and project tracking information
Monitor project progress and communicate schedule, resource, scope, or production concerns
Identify project issues and potential solutions before they significantly affect project delivery
Coordinate with clients, engineers, contractors, vendors, and other project stakeholders as applicable
Participate in client meetings, project calls, site walks, and other project coordination activities
Support project budgeting, labor tracking, utilization, forecasting, and other financial controls
Identify potential scope changes, additional-service needs, or project budget concerns and communicate them to the Project Manager
Support development of project proposals, scopes of work, estimates, and schedules
Perform and coordinate A&E design and production activities as required
Review project deliverables for completeness, technical quality, constructability, and compliance with project requirements
Provide technical guidance and support to less-experienced Designers
Coordinate QA/QC activities and ensure project comments and revisions are appropriately addressed
Assist the Project Manager with project documentation, reporting, closeout, and lessons learned
Apply established DOG standards, templates, processes, and project management practices
Continue developing project management, client management, financial, scheduling, and resource management skills

The selected individual will be expected to understand how the technical, scheduling, financial, and client-management aspects of a project affect one another and to recognize when an issue should be resolved independently versus escalated to the Project Manager or appropriate technical resource.

Due to the nature and limited timelines of most projects, the candidate should be willing and capable of exhibiting the work ethic and social ability to succeed in a fast-paced environment where communication with co-workers, clients, and strategic partners is paramount.
