The Project Manager manages heavy civil, site development, commercial building, and general contracting projects from inception through completion.

The ideal candidate does not need to be an expert in every discipline but should have a working knowledge of civil, sitework, structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing construction. Collaboration and cooperation among the entire project team are imperative; we function as a team, or we fail.

• Reviews engineering plans and specifications to identify scopes of work and prepare accurate quantity takeoffs.
• Develops subcontractor requirements and supplier scopes for review with divisional management.
• Coordinates multiple scopes of work, including sitework, utilities, concrete, structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing.
• Reviews submittals to ensure compliance with project drawings and specifications.
• Performs cost analyses for various construction methods and project alternatives.
• Collaborate with field personnel to develop three-week look-ahead schedules for self-performed and subcontracted work.
• Monitors projects to ensure compliance with company policies, contractual requirements, and applicable regulations.
• Oversee purchasing activities to ensure quality materials are delivered on time and at competitive costs.
• Manages change-order documentation, justification, pricing, and approval.
• Coordinates with engineers, inspectors, clients, owners’ representatives, subcontractors, and suppliers to identify and resolve project issues.
• Reviews field construction activities and provide support to keep projects on schedule and within budget.
• Coordinates with Superintendents and subcontractors to ensure all work meets project plans, specifications, quality standards, and contractual requirements.
• Administers project policies, procedures, and expectations to subcontractors.
• Controls and tracks project costs to maintain profitability.
• Prepares monthly cost-to-complete reports for division leadership and company ownership.
• Maintains positive project cash flow and provides monthly sales projections.
• Conduct regular project inspections and evaluates work progress and quality.
• Maintains a working knowledge of heavy civil, sitework, structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing construction methods.
• Continuously supports company safety initiatives and assists field supervision in addressing conditions requiring attention.

Education and Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline preferred. Equivalent industry experience will also be considered.
• Five or more years of construction management experience with a general contractor or similarly positioned construction company, including experience leading projects as a Project Manager, Assistant Project Manager, or Superintendent.
• Previous experience working as a Foreman and Superintendent on a similar project is a plus.
• Estimating experience is a strong plus.
• Proven ability to develop and manage project budgets, schedules, contracts, and cost projections.
• Strong prioritization and organizational skills, and detail oriented.
• Strong leadership, communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills.
• Proficient in Microsoft Office Suite, Primavera, Vista, and Procore
