Project Manager - Heavy Civil & Sitework Construction

We are looking for a Project Manager to oversee heavy civil and sitework construction projects within a self-perform contractor environment. This role is responsible for managing projects from preconstruction through closeout, with a focus on utilities, earthwork, and concrete scopes. The position can support either a hands-on execution-level PM or a high-upside step-up candidate (APM or field leader transitioning into project management). This role is critical to maintaining project timelines, coordinating field operations, and supporting overall project delivery as the company continues to stabilize and grow.

Responsibilities

• Manage heavy civil and sitework projects from preconstruction through completion, ensuring schedule, budget, and quality targets are met
• Coordinate field crews, subcontractors, and internal teams across active job sites
• Build and maintain project schedules, tracking progress and adjusting timelines as needed
• Review drawings and specifications to ensure alignment with project scope and execution plans
• Track project costs, budgets, and change orders to maintain financial performance
• Interface with clients, inspectors, and local agencies to ensure compliance and smooth project progression
• Support procurement of materials, subcontractors, and equipment for active projects
• Identify and resolve project issues related to scope, schedule, and field execution
• Maintain organized project documentation, reporting, and communication across stakeholders

Requirements

• 3+ years of project management or assistant project management experience in civil or commercial construction
• Experience with sitework, utilities, earthwork, or concrete scopes preferred
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications
• Experience working in a self-perform contractor or field-driven environment preferred
• Proficiency with project management tools, scheduling software, and Excel
• Open to candidates transitioning from field leadership roles (foreman, superintendent) with strong civil background
• Must have direct involvement in project execution (not solely administrative or support roles)
• Local market experience preferred (candidates outside the region may not be considered)

Benefits

Compensation: Competitive salary based on experience. Benefits may include health insurance, retirement plan options, paid time off, and other company-sponsored programs.
