Based out of our Aberdeen, South Dakota office, this role will lead industrial and electrical construction projects from kickoff through completion. You'll work closely with field leadership, clients, and internal teams to drive successful project execution while helping shape the future growth of our Aberdeen operations.

  • Lead projects from pre-construction through final completion
  • Manage project budgets, forecasting, schedules, and client communication
  • Partner with field leadership to drive execution, safety, productivity, and quality
  • Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, and internal project teams
  • Identify project risks early and proactively solve challenges
  • Support change order management, project documentation, and financial tracking
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with clients and stakeholders
  • Help create efficient project delivery strategies that improve overall project performance

What We're Looking For
  • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Technology, or a related field preferred
  • Minimum of 5 years of project management experience, including leadership of construction or industrial projects

Travel

This role is based out of our Aberdeen, SD office with travel to customer and project sites up to 25% of the time. Most travel consists of regional day trips with very limited overnight travel anticipated.
