Job description

A strong Project Manager sees the whole picture: the budget, the schedule, the people in the field, and what the client needs next. That’s the kind of PM this Wichita team is looking for.

A respected Kansas-based commercial contractor is adding a Project Manager to its Wichita team. The office has a mix of municipal, civic, and commercial work, with projects ranging from tenant improvements to ground-up construction.

This search is being handled confidentially.

Why This Opportunity Matters

This is a chance to join an established general contractor with a strong Kansas presence and help shape a growing Wichita office. You’ll have meaningful ownership of your projects and work closely with both field and office leadership.

• A varied pipeline of public and private projects
• Work that includes ground-up construction, renovations, and tenant improvements
• Direct access to local leadership
• An opportunity to build lasting relationships with clients and trade partners
• A team looking for a long-term addition, not someone to fill a single project
