Job description

Lead major heavy civil projects. Own budgets, schedules, and project performance. Build toward senior project leadership.

We are partnering with a well-established U.S. heavy civil contractor to appoint an accomplished and ambitious Project Manager to join its growing team in Atlanta.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a pipeline of heavy civil transportation and site development work, working closely with owners, agencies, engineers, superintendents, subcontractors, and senior leadership to deliver projects safely, profitably, and to the highest standard.

The company is focused on its people and on building long-term careers, with a culture centered around performance, accountability, and delivering quality work in the communities it serves.

The Opportunity

As Project Manager, you will take ownership of the commercial and operational management of your projects, with full responsibility for budgets, schedules, contracts, resources, and overall project profitability.

The position offers genuine autonomy and the chance to shape how your projects are run, backed by an experienced operations team and the resources to deliver.

This is much more than an administrative project management position. You will be trusted to run your work end to end, with a clear route toward Senior Project Manager and wider leadership as the business grows.

Your responsibilities will include

• Owning project budgets, schedules, contracts, and overall financial performance
• Managing monthly job cost reports, forecasts, and profit projections

• Working with Superintendents on crew, equipment, and production planning across roadway, grading, earthwork, and utility scopes
• Managing subcontractors, procurement, material deliveries, and project documentation
• Acting as the main point of contact for owners, engineers, DOT and municipal inspectors, and key stakeholders
