About the Opportunity
WSP is initiating a search for a Construction Quality Manager to join our New York, New York office. In this role, you will serve as a critical guardian of project integrity, ensuring that all construction activities align with rigorous standards and contractual obligations.
Your Impact
You will oversee overall construction quality compliance across a variety of delivery methods, including traditional design-bid-build and design-build projects. Your mission is to develop and implement project-specific Quality Management Manuals that document conformity with contract plans, specifications, and applicable laws. From the design phase through construction and deployment, you will ensure quality plans are not only prepared and approved but actively implemented and documented.
Your day-to-day involves auditing ongoing contracts to measure quality health through specific metrics, collaborating with project teams to develop new quality control processes, and evaluating contractor procedures for inspection, testing, and record-keeping. You will conduct regular field visits and compliance audits to verify that quality activities align with the quality plan and all contractual obligations. When deficiencies are observed, you will manage their resolution, document non-conformances through detailed reports, and oversee factory and field testing. Additionally, you will prepare status reports to monitor progress and ensure tasks are completed within assigned durations.
Who You Are
We are looking for a professional with a Bachelor's degree or equivalent and 10 years of experience in management positions within production, manufacturing, or construction environments, specifically performing QA/QC auditing. You must have demonstrated experience with rail transit projects and a strong knowledge of ISO 9000 quality standards as applied to planning, design, and construction.
In this fast-paced engineering environment, you will exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds and resources, strictly adhering to WSP's Code of Conduct. A proven track record of upholding workplace safety and abiding by WSP's health, safety, and drug/alcohol policies is essential. Familiarity with FTA Quality Management System Guidelines is highly valued.
