**Job purpose**

The Project Manager (PM) is integral in delivering a product or service that Hudson can do for the customer that will be of value to them. The purpose of our projects is to protect the customer, or their assets, and provide them with a system that they can utilize to suit their needs. To manage a project, is to oversee it from start to finish. Although a project may often begin in sales, the PM has input during its estimation and the initial planning phase. Following the sale of the project, the PM is responsible for ensuring each step to complete it is done with safety, quality, and efficiency.

The PM provides support to ensure the smooth execution of projects by documenting, record keeping, coordinating the timely delivery of supplies/ material, tracking project progress, maintaining project files, and ensuring quality control and safety. The PM must take ownership of the planning of each project; gathering the critical information from the sales team to communicate effectively with the Service Leader and technicians.

At Hudson, we bleed orange. Everything we do adheres to our core values. These are not just phrases and cliches at Hudson.
- We take action
- We continuously improve
- We put people first
- We value community

This part of our culture bleeds through everything you do and as a project manager, when no one is moving a project forward, you must take action. Sometimes it may take time to plan a project correctly and efficiently, but you always learn and improve on your knowledge, and the process in which you use it. When considering the method of operation of a system you are specifying, you think of the people using it, and consider their needs first. When deciding on a subcontractor to work with on a project you consider how that business will build and strengthen Hudson's community. Hudson deals with customers, not contracts. We develop relationships with suppliers, strategic partners and subcontractors. Every contact an employee has with these parties must help to foster those relationships to help Hudson strengthen and grow. If you think that you can embody these core values everyday, you are right for Hudson.
