ABOUT US

The business is globally active, with interests across the US, Canada, Europe, and the Caribbean. Our mission is to create and deploy capital for a better world, supported by a team of capable executives and an entrepreneurial founder.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
As Project Manager - Off Grid , you will lead the execution of a complex, off-grid development project on a remote island near Vancouver. You'll manage everything from logistics and vendor coordination to budget tracking and onsite execution. This project includes multiple all-season yurts, an A-frame lodge, custom infrastructure (solar/generator, septic, heli-pad), and trail/utility installation. You'll report to the VP of Land Development and be supported by a field superintendent already based on site.
You'll operate in a high-urgency, design-build environment, where timelines are compressed and expectations are elevated - especially when working with ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWI) and their advisors.
WHO YOU ARE
- Off-grid builder who thrives in logistical complexity - experienced with remote job sites, challenging terrain, and limited utility access
- Highly organized operator - maintains explicit plans, timelines,
and contractor accountability
- Resourceful and self-sufficient - solves problems independently, finds creative solutions, and makes things happen without hand-holding
- Clear communicator - documents progress, flags risks early, and keeps leadership informed
- Comfortable in the field - not afraid to walk the land, inspect construction firsthand, and get your boots dirty
- Design-build executor - experienced in managing both the planning and construction sides of projects, ensuring that vision translates into physical execution under demanding conditions
- Thrives under pressure - excels in projects where the deadlines feel unrealistic and the margin for error is zero; sees urgency as a driver, not a barrier
- Professional with polish - confident interfacing with UHNWI clients and their representatives while maintaining field credibility and discretion
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Manage all phases of the Off Grid Island project, including yurts, A-frame, heli-pad, and off-grid utilities
- Coordinate logistics of materials, equipment, contractors, and transport (e.g. barge, helicopter)
- Oversee execution of solar/generator installation, water systems, and septic solutions
- Track budgets, maintain construction timelines, and ensure vendor alignment
- Report to the VP of Land Development with updates, site photos, and field-level risks
- Operate with autonomy while collaborating closely with on-site leadership and vendors
- Execute design-build project scope with precision, adapting plans in real-time as site conditions and client needs evolve
- Deliver results under accelerated timelines, with a relentless focus on quality, speed, and client-level expectations
Job Requirements
WHAT YOU'LL BRING
- 5+ years in off-grid, remote site, or rugged terrain construction project management
- Demonstrated experience managing full-cycle builds with minimal infrastructure support
- Familiarity with off-grid systems: solar arrays, generators, water/septic, telecom
- Ability to plan, sequence, and manage projects with weather/environment constraints
- Strong verbal/written communication skills, with clear reporting style
- Hands-on approach with confidence operating in isolated job sites
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience; PMP certification a plus
- Proven ability to lead capital projects from design through build - managing everything from initial plans to field execution
- Experience working directly with or adjacent to ultra-high-net-worth individuals and high-touch client environments
- Able to travel and spend multi-week rotations on-site in undisclosed location off the coast of Vancouver, BC
