Project Manager, Zero Emission Maritime Program

Details:

We are supporting a client operating in a regulated port environment that is deploying a zero‑emission marine vessel program and associated electrical and charging infrastructure.

This Project Manager will lead execution across vessel deployment, shore power readiness, regulatory alignment, and emissions credit compliance. The role requires hands‑on experience navigating CARB-aligned programs and understanding how credits and regulatory requirements affect project delivery.

• Manage timelines, milestones, dependencies, and risks across engineering, construction, and operations
• Drive follow‑up and accountability across internal teams and external partners
• Translate regulatory and infrastructure constraints into executable project plans

• Serve as the primary project interface with port authorities and local agencies
• Support permitting, approvals, and compliance tracking in port environments
• Align execution plans with port governance and review cycles
• Prepare materials and briefings for executive and agency‑facing meetings

• Work directly with CARB‑ and AQMD‑related programs affecting emissions and infrastructure

• Direct experience working with CARB‑aligned programs or emissions compliance frameworks
• Working knowledge of emissions credits, incentives, or compliance‑driven delivery models
• Experience operating in regulated or port‑adjacent environments
• Strong execution discipline, communication, and problem‑solving skills

• Zero‑emission transportation, port electrification, or industrial decarbonization projects
• Experience coordinating with utilities, energy infrastructure partners, and agencies
