A bit about us:

We are a privately held, self‑performing contractor specializing in complex civil, infrastructure, and industrial construction projects throughout the Midwest. Our work includes site development, underground utilities, concrete, earthwork, and large-scale civil scopes for repeat clients in demanding environments. We operate as a lean, execution-focused organization that values accountability, collaboration, and long-term relationships—with both clients and employees. Growth has been driven by project wins and client trust, not volume for volume’s sake.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to step into a senior-level role with meaningful ownership of projects and direct influence on outcomes. The organization empowers its project managers to make decisions, manage teams, and build strong client relationships without excessive bureaucracy. If you are a civil PM who enjoys wearing multiple hats, mentoring teams, and seeing projects through from early planning to final completion, this role offers both stability and upward trajectory.

Job Details

Role Summary:
The Senior Project Manager will lead civil construction projects from preconstruction through closeout, overseeing scheduling, budgeting, subcontractor coordination, and client communication. This role requires strong technical civil experience, the ability to manage multiple workstreams, and comfort operating in a fast-paced, self-perform environment. The PM will work closely with field leadership, estimating, and executive management to ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget.

Desired Qualifications:
  • 8+ years of project management experience within civil construction
  • Strong background in site development, underground utilities, concrete, and/or earthwork
  • Proven experience managing projects from preconstruction through closeout
  • Ability to lead project teams and coordinate field operations, subcontractors, and vendors
  • Experience with cost control, change orders, forecasting, and schedule management
  • Strong communication skills with owners, engineers, and internal stakeholders
  • Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or related field preferred
  • Experience in self-perform or lean contracting environments is a plus
