* Required field.

Our client is looking for a hands-on, driven Construction Project Manager to oversee planning, coordination, and execution of construction infrastructure projects. This is a high-growth opportunity with mentorship from seasoned professionals, exposure to both operations and client-facing responsibilities.

Concrete experience is a strong plus—but if you bring grit, flexibility, and a passion for solving complex problems in the field, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage end-to-end construction projects, primarily DOT-related (bridges, highways, etc.)
  • Collaborate with crews, subcontractors, drivers, and suppliers to ensure timely, efficient job completion
  • Coordinate scheduling, equipment needs, materials, and labor
  • Serve as the key point of contact for field crews and client stakeholders
  • Travel to job sites as needed (some overnight travel may be required)
  • Participate in project bidding and sales support during the off-season
  • Shadow senior leadership to gain hands-on training and business acumen
  • Manage project budgets, documentation, and post-project reviews
  • Ensure compliance with safety regulations, client specifications, and quality standards

Qualifications

  • 2–10 years of project management experience (construction preferred)
  • Concrete project experience or civil infrastructure background is a plus
  • Sales or client-facing experience is a major plus, especially in construction or field service environments
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills—ability to build relationships across teams
  • Excellent problem-solving, time management, and multitasking skills
  • Proficiency in project management or construction-related software (or willingness to learn)
  • Open to candidates with a degree or equivalent hands-on experience
  • Must be flexible with hours, especially during peak project seasons
  • Willingness to travel occasionally for key project needs

Thank you, 

Rachel Stewart
