Full Job Description

About Us

Color-Ad is a custom exhibit and signage fabrication firm producing large-scale museum exhibits, interpretive environments, and national signage programs. We collaborate with leading design firms, cultural institutions, and government agencies to engineer, fabricate, and install projects that serve millions of visitors each year.

We frequently serve as the prime contractor, managing turnkey exhibit production from project turnover through installation and closeout. Our projects range from highly technical artifact cases to immersive environments with integrated AV, graphics, lighting, and custom fabrication.

Our clients include major cultural institutions and federal agencies with rigorous documentation, accessibility, and quality standards.

The Role

We are seeking a Senior Project Manager with direct exhibit industry experience to lead complex museum and interpretive fabrication projects.

This role is designed for someone who has already managed large-scale exhibit projects at an established exhibit fabrication firm and understands the pace, complexity, and interdisciplinary coordination required in this industry.

If you have successfully led projects involving custom casework, integrated AV, graphic programs, artifact mounting coordination, and multi-phase installations — this is the level we are seeking.

You will serve as the central driver of project execution from award through completion.

What You’ll Do

Lead large-scale exhibit and signage fabrication projects from turnover through installation
Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, designers, consultants, and subcontractors
Manage project budgets, schedules, billing, and forecasting
Coordinate closely with internal departments:
Engineering
CAD detailing
Woodshop
Metal fabrication
CNC
Paint
Graphics
AV
Installation
Facilitate submittals, RFIs, revisions, and change orders
Anticipate scope gaps and resolve issues before they affect schedule or production
Manage fabrication sequencing in coordination with production supervisors
Oversee procurement of specialty materials and subcontracted components
Lead installation planning, logistics, and site coordination
Maintain documentation standards required for institutional and government clients

What We’re Looking For

Required Experience:

7+ years of project management experience within the exhibit fabrication industry
Experience at an established exhibit or themed environment fabrication firm
Demonstrated experience managing museum, interpretive, or immersive environment projects
Experience coordinating multidisciplinary exhibit components (casework, graphics, AV, lighting, specialty finishes)
Experience working with cultural institutions, federal agencies, or similarly structured clients

Core Competencies:

Strong budget ownership and cost tracking experience
Deep understanding of exhibit production sequencing and shop coordination
Ability to read and interpret design intent drawings and identify constructability risks
Skilled in navigating revisions and scope evolution without destabilizing schedule or margin
Experience managing fabrication schedules tied to fixed installation deadlines

Leadership Style:

Proactive and decisive
Detail-oriented without losing sight of overall project strategy
Comfortable making judgment calls when information is incomplete
Able to hold internal teams accountable while maintaining collaborative relationships
Confident in client-facing settings

Why Color-Ad?

Lead nationally recognized museum and exhibit projects
Work alongside a strong in-house fabrication team spanning wood, metal, CNC, graphics, paint, and AV
Direct visibility into production — not managing fabrication from a distance
Opportunity to have real influence in a growing and evolving organization
Stable project pipeline with respected institutional clients

If you are currently managing exhibits at a fabrication firm and are looking for an opportunity to take on meaningful leadership within a company that values build strategy, craftsmanship, and long-term client relationships, we would welcome the conversation.
