Senior Project Manager - Dams and Hydropower - (Civil Engineer)

  • Location: South Asian region (Hardship Location)
  • Salary: Upto 22k USD Per Month

High-Value Opportunity for an Elite Civil Project Manager …..

Are you a seasoned heavy civil engineering leader looking for your next career-defining legacy project?

We are tracking an exclusive opportunity for a Civil Project Manager to spearhead a major, world-class Hydropower Project in a dynamic, rapidly growing South Asian region. This is a massive-scale infrastructure development backed by major international stakeholders, offering a sophisticated engineering challenge and a highly lucrative package.

The Role & Scale

As the Civil Project Manager, you will take full ownership of the civil works package on a massive hydropower development. You won't just be managing a site; you will be orchestrating a monumental engineering feat involving complex tunnelling, massive concrete structures, dams, and powerhouse construction.

  • The Challenge: Oversee multi-million dollar contracts, lead a diverse international team of engineers and contractors, and ensure world-class quality and safety standards.
  • The Environment: While this is a remote project location, it features highly modern, self-contained expat camp facilities designed for premium comfort, recreation, and seamless connectivity.

What's in it for You?

  • Elite Compensation: A tax-free (or heavily subsidized, depending on your residency) base salary of up to $22,000 USD per month, commensurate with your level of expertise.
  • Premium Expat Benefits: accommodation, medical coverage, dedicated transport, and an excellent rotational leave cycle with fully covered flights home.
  • Career Legacy: The chance to put a mega-scale renewable energy project on your resume that will stand as a benchmark for decades.

Who We Are Looking For

This role requires a heavy-hitter who can command a site with authority, deep technical knowledge, and sharp commercial acumen.

  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering (Chartered or Professional Engineer status is a massive plus).
  • Experience: Minimum of 15+ years in heavy civil infrastructure, with at least 5-7 years specifically managing large-scale Hydropower or major tunneling/dam projects.
  • Leadership: A proven track record of managing international joint-venture contractors and navigating complex EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contracts.
  • Adaptability: Previous experience working in developing regions or remote, high-intensity project sites.

Confidential Inquiries

Because of the highly strategic nature of this mega-project, all applications and initial discussions will be held in the strictest confidence.

If you are ready to command a world-class site and secure a top-tier financial package, we want to hear from you.
