Junior Project Manager

ICC-IMS Data Services performs 100+ projects each calendar year. Project Managers are assigned to these projects which last up to six months. The project manager is the shepherd of the project, with the responsibility of keeping things on schedule and ensuring all items are completed as requested. Our project managers initiate and kick-off the project, and follow through our variety of processes culminating in the delivery of all items and successful closure of the project. The project manager is also outward facing and is responsible for engaging and updating the client. 

Who We Are:

Based in Largo, FL, International Cybernetics Company (ICC) has designed and manufactured devices to collect road surface data since its founding in 1975.

Together, ICC and IMS boast almost five decades of experience in pavement engineering and analysis, software development, automated data collection equipment manufacturing, and ROW mapping.
