Introduction

At ARCO/Murray, we take our "better team, better planning, and better execution" culture seriously. But we're not an award-winning firm just because we're a great place to work. We're relentless experts at what we do.

Overview

Are you a passionate problem solver? Do you act with integrity and hold yourself and others to the highest standard? If the answer is, "Yes!" then we have an opportunity that will impress you. Who are we? We are ARCO, a Family of Construction Companies.

Second Order Controls - a division of ARCO/Murray National Construction - is seeking a highly motivated Cx Project Manager to join our Commissioning team based in Chicago, IL. At ARCO, every associate is empowered to drive their success. Project Managers at ARCO have complete responsibility for project performance, customer satisfaction, and taking projects from design to completion. Each Project Manager has full profit and performance responsibility for his or her projects and unlimited growth potential.

WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU

We are dedicated to the well-being of our associates and are proud to be consistently recognized as a Best Place to Work. Our compensation and benefits package not only supports our associates and their families but benefits local communities and communities around the world.

• Industry-leading performance-based bonus program
• Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

Typical base compensation for the Project Manager role is between $84,000.00 and $160,000.00. Candidates with extensive experience may exceed this range. In addition to base salary, the role is eligible to receive discretionary bonus compensation based on individual and company performance.

At ARCO, our first core value is to treat people fairly and do the right thing. We are committed to building and sustaining a culture that supports diversity and inclusion. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment.

• Highly entrepreneurial and self-motivated, with the ability to successfully work on own.
