Insight Global Senior Project Manager – Hyperscale Data Center Construction in Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Job Description
Insight Global is seeking experienced Senior Project Managers to assist in large scale hyperscale data center construction projects across the U.S. This role is a critical component for full lifecycle project leadership—from preconstruction through closeout—on complex, high value new builds and finish out scopes. The ideal candidate brings deep hyperscale experience, strong financial and schedule ownership, and the ability to own pieces of large, multidisciplinary teams in fast paced environments. One of these 2 positions will be joining an ongoing project in Cedar Rapids, IA and MUST be local to the area or willing to relocate. The second opening can be located anywhere in the United States, but willing to travel 75% and/or relocate to an undetermined jobsite. For both of these positions once a job is completed, the expectation is 75% travel + ability and willingness to relocate for future projects.
Key Notes:
Travel cadence often follows Thursday–Monday, approximately twice per month
M-F onsite work expectations, 45-50 hours per week
PM's are expected to be on site heavily during preconstruction, early execution, and closeout, with reduced presence during less busy phases
Daily per diem offered 7x week
Day to Day:
Manage daily construction operations, subcontractors, and field coordination
Own project schedule execution, including short‑interval planning and milestone tracking (P6)
Track labor productivity, cost performance, and production metrics
Maintain project documentation: RFIs, submittals, change orders, meeting minutes
Coordinate closely with PX on forecasting, earned value, and reporting
Serve as a primary client‑facing representative on site, especially during close‑out and commissioning phases
Travel to HQ for onboarding and process alignment as needed
