- Hold subcontractors, suppliers, and vendors to scope, schedule, quality, and cost
- Anticipate risk and respond to changing site conditions, design issues, and operational constraints
- Manage change orders, subcontractor costs, and material expenditures
- Coordinate with engineers and internal teams on design-build projects
- Review work against contracts, drawings, specifications, and regulatory requirements
- Lead internal meetings and client-facing project discussions
- Champion jobsite safety and identify operational efficiencies
Required Experience
- 5 to 10+ years in construction
- Several years as a Project Manager or similar role in heavy civil, specialty, or geotechnical construction
- Direct experience with deep foundations, earth retention, drilling, shoring, or ground improvement
- Strong knowledge of estimating, cost control, forecasting, and project financials
- Proven ability to run multiple projects at once
- Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field (equivalent industry experience considered)
Preferred Experience
- Design-build work involving shoring, foundations, or specialty geotechnical construction
- Union labor and skilled craft team experience
- Public and private sector project experience
- Urban, tight-access, or technically demanding jobsites
Compensation and Benefits
- $100,000 to $140,000 base salary, based on experience
- 401(k) with employer match and profit-sharing opportunities
- Health, dental, and vision coverage
- Continuing education and professional development support
- Company vehicle or vehicle allowance, depending on position
