Description:
Under general supervision, the Capital Planning & Project Manager I (CPPM I) leads the full lifecycle of routine capital improvements and facilities-planning projects—from program planning through final acceptance of construction and warranty period. You will coordinate and direct consultant teams, manage project budgets and schedules, oversee bid solicitations and contract awards, and ensure compliance with plans, specifications, codes (including ADA and sustainability standards), and County procurement regulations. Acting as the primary liaison among County departments, consultants, contractors, community groups, and regulatory agencies, you will resolve technical and logistical challenges, maintain clear project documentation, and deliver successful outcomes that enhance County facilities and services.
Our Highly Qualified Candidate:
Our ideal CPPM I brings hands-on experience delivering moderately complex capital and facilities-planning projects on time and within budget, with proven expertise in bid solicitation, contract award, and progress-payment oversight. Taking on the role of project leader, the CPPM I will oversee all the elements of a project, from initial scope development, to assembling the right team to execute the work ensuring the project runs smoothly. The ideal CPPM I will have the ability to successfully collaborate across County departments, special districts, regulatory agencies, and community groups through clear, respectful communication. Exceptionally organized, they maintain precise project documentation and distill complex technical and financial details into concise reports for leadership and public audiences. A resourceful problem-solver, they anticipate site-level challenges and implement compliant, cost-effective solutions, taking full ownership from kickoff through closeout while adapting seamlessly between remote and onsite work. Above all, they share our commitment to stewardship, integrity, and continuous improvement, delivering public facilities that truly serve the community.
Minimum Qualifications:
Typical qualifications are equivalent to a bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university with major coursework in construction management, project management, civil, structural or mechanical engineering, facilities planning, design management, architecture, business, economics, planning or a related field. Required education is interchangeable with project management experience related to the area of assignment on a year-for-year basis for a maximum of two years.
Hybrid Schedule:
The Department of Public Works has embraced a hybrid work schedule that considers that some duties of this position may be performed remotely. However, the successful candidate must be able to report to County facilities for meetings, work assignments, and/or disaster service work upon short notice, as needed and deemed appropriate. During the initial probationary period, the successful candidate may be required to work primarily onsite before establishing a hybrid work schedule.
