Job Description:

ABOUT THE POSITION

The Riverside County Sheriff's Department is accepting applications for Facilities Project Manager II and Facilities Project Manager III. These positions will provide management of a variety of County facility construction, alteration, and repair projects and architectural-engineering studies, including space management and facilities or furnishings planning and implementation; perform construction design; assist in the administration of construction contracts; and to do other work as required.

The Facilities Project Manager II is the fully qualified, journey level classification in the professional Facilities Project Manager series and reports to a Supervising Facilities Project Manager. Incumbents perform technical management of a variety of routine to moderately complex County facility construction projects, alteration and repair projects and architectural-engineering studies with limited supervision. Closer supervisory control is exercised over the more difficult work.

The Facilities Project Manager III is the advanced journey level classification in the professional Facilities Project Manager series and reports to a Supervising Facilities Project Manager. Incumbents perform a variety of complex, major County facility construction projects, including new facilities and major alterations, additions, and renovations of existing facilities from development of initial conceptual, schematic drawings through the final acceptance of construction and the warranty period (exclusive of road, parks, and flood control projects). Assignments require an advanced knowledge of the principles of architectural design and facility construction; structural, electrical and mechanical engineering construction; materials used in facilities construction and Uniform Building Codes.

The Facilities Project Manager III is distinguished from the Supervising Facilities Project Manager in that the latter plans, organizes and directs the work of a team providing technical management for a variety of major County facility construction, alteration and repair projects and architectural-engineering studies.
