The posting

Brailsford & Dunlavey (B&D), which now includes Project Management Advisors (PMA), is seeking a Senior Project Manager to join our Life Sciences team in San Francisco

This is a hybrid role based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The Opportunity

An opportunity for a driven project management professional who thrives in fast-paced environments, enjoys collaborating with clients and project teams, and is motivated to deliver complex real estate and infrastructure projects that support the future of technology and innovation.

At Brailsford & Dunlavey (B&D), we lead the planning, development, and management of the places that shape and strengthen communities—where people live, learn, work, and innovate.

B&D recently joined forces with Project Management Advisors (PMA), bringing together two nationally recognized leaders in program management and real estate advisory services. Together, the combined firm offers expanded capabilities across industries and end-to-end project delivery—from early-stage strategy through design, construction, and occupancy.

As a Senior Project Manager, you will work directly with clients, architects, engineers, contractors, consultants, and project teams to support planning, design, and construction activities for new buildings, tenant improvements, infrastructure projects, and facility assignments.

How You'll Contribute

  • Participate in value engineering discussions and review project alternatives with clients and teams
  • Build strong partnerships with clients, architects, engineers, contractors, consultants, and other project stakeholders
  • Collaborate with clients and project teams to identify risks, resolve issues, and maintain project momentum
  • Support Project team and/or mentor internal project resources, including Assistant Project Managers and Project Managers.
  • Monitor construction activities and confirm alignment with design intent, contract requirements, schedules, and quality standards; observe and report on construction progress and project-related issues
  • Support and coordinate successful project closeout and transition/training activities

What We're Looking For

  • 10+ years of experience in an electrical-affiliated role- project management, design, coordination, construction, or operations
  • Experience supporting complex technology, infrastructure, mission-critical, laboratory, or commercial projects is preferred
  • Bachelor’s degree or higher in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or a related field. And/or electrical engineering-focused construction, design/build experience
  • Demonstrated ability to successfully manage projects and consistently meet or exceed client expectations and deadlines
  • Strong understanding of design and construction processes, project controls, documentation, and sequencing

  • Ability to interpret architectural, engineering, and construction documentation
  • Strong communication and relationship management skills with clients, consultants, contractors, and internal teams
  • Experience supporting procurement, contracts, and consultant coordination

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
