Full Job Description
Description

Senior Project Manager, Structural Steel

The role

Read this one only if you've already proven you can run a job. We need someone who's carried hard jobs and is looking for more room, not more title.

You own the hardest work we take: the most scope ambiguity, the tightest erection windows, and the clients who make you earn it. And you raise the floor for everyone else.

What you'll own

Everything a Project Manager here owns, on our most complex work: schedule, budget, sub-fab, client, closeout, margin. Plus:
• Developing PMs: You set the bar. You're who a PM comes to before they come to the Director. You review their work and you're honest about it.
• Bridging pre-con and operations: You understand how the job was sold, and you catch the bid assumption that won't survive the shop, before it costs us.
• Commercial accountability: You push back on a sub's number, a vendor's schedule, or a GC's position without escalating and without burning the relationship.
• Parallel tracks: Detailing, fabrication, delivery, and erection running at once. You hold all four and see where they collide.

Who thrives here
• Everything in the Project Manager profile, proven.
• Years of owned margin performance you can walk us through job by job.
• Experience developing other PMs, formally or not.
• Fluency across GC superintendents, structural engineers, and design teams.
• You've run OAC meetings that were prepared, on point, and action-oriented.
• You know which problems need a decision now and which need more information.

Why Rebellion

You've probably got options at bigger names. Here's what they don't offer: your decisions actually land, and you'll see the shop floor that builds what you managed.

Practical details
• Based in Wahoo, NE and fully on-site. This is not a remote or hybrid position.
• Reports to the Director of Project Management.
• Compensation depending on experience.
• Benefits and participation in the ESOP as it is established.

How to apply

Apply through our posting. Candidates who move beyond the initial conversation should expect a working interview built on real scenarios from our projects, along with time in the shop.

We would rather determine early, on both sides, whether the environment, expectations, and responsibilities are the right fit.
