      Full-Time Opportunity

    Build Landmark Projects from Concept to Completion

    Take ownership of high-impact design-build projects across the region.

    This is more than a traditional PM role—you’ll be at the center of planning, design coordination, and construction execution, helping shape projects from early concept through final delivery. If you thrive in fast-paced environments where you can influence outcomes and drive results, this role puts you in the driver’s seat.

    What You’ll Do

    As a Design-Build Project Manager, you will:

    • Lead projects from pursuit through completion, including planning, budgeting, and execution strategy

    • Take ownership of project financials, managing budgets, minimizing risk, and protecting margins

    • Drive design-build coordination, ensuring alignment between engineering, procurement, and construction

    • Oversee procurement and proposal efforts, keeping projects moving from concept to contract

    • Develop and manage project work plans, schedules, and resource allocation

    • Conduct constructability reviews to identify risks early and improve execution

    • Coordinate across all stakeholders—owners, engineers, subcontractors, and vendors

    • Monitor progress, lead status meetings, and proactively address challenges

    • Ensure strict adherence to safety, quality, and compliance standards

    • Serve as the key point of accountability for project delivery and client satisfaction

    Why This Role Stands Out

    • True Design-Build Exposure: Influence both design and construction—not just execution

    • High-Impact Projects: Work on complex infrastructure that shapes communities

    • Autonomy & Ownership: Lead projects with real responsibility and decision-making authority

    • Growth Opportunity: Be part of a team expanding its design-build capabilities

    What You Bring

    • 10+ years of experience managing construction projects

    • 5+ years specifically in design-build delivery

    • Background in heavy civil construction (bridges, transportation, infrastructure preferred)

    • Strong understanding of:

      • Project financials and cost control

      • Scheduling and resource planning

      • Construction means and methods

    • Ability to read and interpret drawings and specifications

    • Proven ability to manage multiple stakeholders and drive results

    Key Traits for Success

    • Strong leadership and communication skills

    • Ability to make sound decisions under pressure

    • Highly organized with excellent time management

    • Collaborative mindset with the ability to influence teams at all levels

    Education

    • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred)

    Additional Details

    • Travel required based on project needs

    • Must be authorized to work in the U.S.

    Why This Opportunity?

    If you’re looking for a role where you can lead complex projects, influence design decisions, and take full ownership of delivery, this is an opportunity to step into a highly visible position with long-term growth potential.
    Compensation: $130,000.00 - $200,000.00 per year
