Project Manager - Sports and Golf Division

About the Company

For more than 30 years, this nationally respected sports and golf construction company has been building where the game is played — greens, fairways, bunkers, and championship-caliber athletic fields for football, baseball, and soccer, coast to coast. With hundreds of completed projects and a reputation for craftsmanship that architects and course superintendents specifically request, they've built something big enough to run concurrent multi-million-dollar builds across the country, and lean enough that every Project Manager still gets real ownership from day one. Growth has outpaced their PM bench, and building out this team is now a top company priority — which means you're stepping into an established, well-run department (not a start-from-scratch build), with real mentorship above you and a clear runway to Senior PM or into the company's golf- or sports-specific divisions.

About the Role

This is a field- and travel-based role, up to 70% travel across a multi-state territory spanning the Midwest to the East Coast.

Responsibilities

• Manage 10–12 active projects at a time — a mix of new construction and closeout work, ranging from $1.3M to $12M and running anywhere from 4 months to 2 years
• Own the full project lifecycle: schedule, procurement, and purchase orders, with the autonomy to run your projects your way
• Serve as the technical point of contact to architects and engineers, and the on-the-ground liaison to your onsite superintendents
• Coordinate closely with the office to keep crews and equipment moving to the right jobsites, with regular in-person meetings to stay aligned with your team
• Balance heavy planning days in the office with 3–4 jobsite visits a day when you're in the field
• Travel regionally and cross-country to project sites, with the company mindful about keeping any single rotation manageable
• Track daily field notes, progress, and billing in Procore

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering (new grads welcome) OR 2+ years of commercial construction project management experience
• Concrete construction experience strongly preferred; earthwork experience also considered
• Experience with a project management software platform (Procore experience a plus)
• Valid driver's license and willingness to travel up to 70% of the time, including regional driving and occasional flights
• Comfortable managing a high volume of concurrent projects (10–12) in a fast-paced environment

Preferred Skills

• PMP or similar project management certification
• Concrete construction experience strongly preferred; earthwork experience also considered
• Experience with a project management software platform (Procore experience a plus)

Pay range and compensation package

• $80,000–$95,000/year, based on experience
• Compensation includes a company vehicle and a company credit card for all travel and job-related expenses — no waiting on reimbursements, even as a brand-new PM.
• Schedule starts at 7:00 AM and runs based on what the job needs that day.
• Medical insurance (PPO/HMO options available) including dental and vision.
• 401(k) with up to a 3% company match, eligible after 90 days.
• PTO & Standard paid holidays.
• A genuinely team-based, family-run culture — weekly meetings with your superintendents.
• Real advancement path — top performers move into Senior PM roles or cross over into the company's golf or sports-specific divisions.

Equal Opportunity Statement

Background check and drug screening required. This is not a remote position — this is a field- and travel-based role requiring the successful candidate to live locally in the Kansas City metro area. Visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
