Job description

Looking for an experienced concrete professional who can manage projects from the office and run the field. Both sides of this role matter — and you'll own both.

This is a leadership role in Gerber's Quality Concrete Division spanning both office and field. The Project Manager side leads projects from planning through closeout — managing budgets, schedules, subs, and client relationships. The Site Superintendent side runs daily operations on commercial and industrial concrete sites, owning quality from first pour to punch list.

What You'll Do

Project Management

• Lead all phases of concrete construction projects, including planning, scheduling, and execution
• Develop and review project schedules, scopes, and budgets
• Coordinate with architects, engineers, subcontractors, and clients throughout each project

• Manage contracts, change orders, RFIs, and submittals
• Monitor project progress, quality control, safety compliance, and budget adherence
• Maintain strong client relationships and facilitate regular coordination meetings

Field Supervision

• Direct daily field operations on commercial and industrial concrete job sites
• Lead and manage crew members, including laborers, finishers, and equipment operators
• Oversee form setting, concrete placement, finishing, and curing operations
• Enforce safety standards and maintain a compliant, organized job site at all times
• Operate or direct specialized equipment, including 3D laser screed and pump truck
• Communicate job site status and issues clearly to ownership and project management

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience in concrete construction, project management, field supervision, or both
• Commercial or industrial project experience required
• Strong knowledge of concrete flatwork, foundations, specialty pours, and site operations
• Ability to read plans and manage across owners, crews, clients, and subcontractors
• Understanding of construction management practices, safety standards, and quality assurance
• PM track: proficiency with construction management software; ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
• Field track: 5+ years in concrete with at least 2 in a supervisory or lead role
• Reliable, self-directed, and accountable. This team runs lean and expects ownership
• Quality Concrete is growing with 3D laser screed, a new pump truck, and expanding commercial workload
• Family-owned company where your decisions carry real weight
• Direct access to ownership without unnecessary management layers
• Actively recruiting from Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and the Muskegon corridor
• Relocation assistance considered for the right candidate

What We Offer

• Competitive pay, commensurate with experience
• Company vehicle or car allowance
• Cell phone reimbursement
• Medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance
• 401(k) with company match and profit sharing
