DescriptionThe OpportunityThis is not a "forward emails and attend meetings" project management role.
This is heavy civil. Real dirt. Real deadlines. Real dollars. Real accountability.
You'll be trusted to manage projects from bid to closeout - cost, schedule, quality, documentation, subcontractors, clients, change orders, risk, and results. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with Superintendents, Foremen, Project Managers, and field crews to turn plans into progress and progress into profitable, high-quality work.
If you know how to bring order to chaos, hold the line on standards, communicate before problems become disasters, and lead with both backbone and humility - this may be your next move.
What You Will Do- As Civil Project Manager, you'll be the person making sure the project doesn't drift, stall, bleed money, or lose the standard.
- You will lead the project from start to finish, managing cost, schedule, quality, safety, documentation, and communication. You'll oversee project performance and profit/loss, making sure the work is executed with discipline and completed successfully.
- You'll generate, review, and approve estimates, subcontracts, change orders, purchase orders, and related project documents. You'll monitor budgets closely, forecast accurately, and take action early when cost or scope starts to move.
- You'll build, review, and maintain project schedules, keeping milestones visible and teams aligned. When weather, site conditions, material delays, or field realities challenge the plan, you'll adjust with urgency and clarity.
- You'll monitor field progress and verify that work is performed in compliance with project specifications, safety protocols, quality standards, legal requirements, and Alpha expectations.
- You'll collaborate daily with Project Managers, Superintendents, Foremen, internal teams, subcontractors, clients, and stakeholders to keep resources aligned and issues moving toward resolution.
- You'll communicate project status, risks, changes, and solutions before people have to chase you for answers.
- You'll identify risks early, solve problems fast, negotiate change orders when needed, and protect both the client relationship and Alpha's margin.
- You'll maintain clean, accurate project documentation, including progress reports, budget updates, forecasts, approvals, and closeout materials.
- You'll address jobsite disputes, coordination breakdowns, and operational challenges directly - with professionalism, urgency, and the kind of leadership that keeps people moving forward.
- And you'll help lead and mentor project team members, holding yourself and others accountable to the standard.
What You Bring- You are organized, field-aware, financially sharp, and calm when the job gets loud.
- You don't need perfect conditions to perform. You know construction is controlled chaos - and you know how to control your part of it.
Experience- Minimum 2-3 years of experience in civil construction or project management, preferably with a focus on heavy civil projects.
- Experience managing project budgets, schedules, change orders, documentation, subcontractors, clients, and field coordination.
- Proven ability to manage multiple priorities without letting details fall through the cracks.
Education- Associate's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field preferred.
- Equivalent hands-on construction/project management experience may be considered.
Technical Skills- Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, especially Word and Excel.
- Experience with Bluebeam, Adobe Acrobat, and construction management/accounting software preferred.
Leadership & Mindset- Strong leadership and organizational skills.
- Solid understanding of heavy civil construction processes, sequencing, field operations, safety, and quality control.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to build trust with clients, crews, subcontractors, and internal teams.
- Strong negotiation, conflict management, and problem-solving ability.
- Comfort owning outcomes - not excuses.
Most importantly, you embody:
- Leading with Heart - You lead people with respect, even when the pressure is high.
- Strength in Unity - You align the field, office, client, and subcontractors around the mission.
- Alpha Mentality - You take ownership, chase excellence, and finish what you start.
