Project Manager – Large-Scale Signage Projects (U.S. Market)
Front Signs is looking for an experienced Project Manager to manage large-scale commercial signage projects for the U.S. market, including projects obtained through competitive bids and tenders.
The position is intended for work at the Square Signs Armenia office in Yerevan and directly supports our B2B signage manufacturing company, Front Signs, operating in Burbank, California.
The Project Manager will be responsible for the end-to-end management of projects, from the handover of an approved bid or contract through design coordination, procurement, production, shipping, installation, and final closeout.
You will collaborate with clients, general contractors, architects, designers, engineers, estimators, production teams, suppliers, subcontractors, and installation teams operating in the U.S. Your primary responsibility is to ensure that all parties clearly understand what needs to be done, who is responsible, and when each task must be completed.
This is a hands-on project management and execution role. It is not necessary to be an expert in all technical aspects of construction or signage manufacturing. However, you must be able to study project documents, grasp technical information, ask clear questions, and take responsibility for problem-solving.
