Senior Project Manager

Role Overview:

The Senior Project Manager leads end-to-end delivery of Galtra’s internal initiatives, manufacturing builds, and client-facing programs. This role integrates design coordination, supply chain execution, and client communication to ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget.
