Project Manager

About the Positions

We’re seeking Project Managers of various skill levels to support large, complex heavy civil infrastructure programs, including highways, roads, bridges, transit (bus and rail), aviation (international airports), and water/wastewater projects delivered through both traditional and alternative delivery methods. We hire project managers who run delivery on programs where a single package can exceed $100M in construction value. You’ll carry scope, budget, schedule, and risk on your assigned projects, hold delivery teams to what they committed to, and provide a clear read on where the work actually stands.

This post is for future roles and not for a specific opportunity that is available right now. We accept applications and conduct interviews in advance of upcoming hiring needs. When a candidate is selected, their profile is activated in our talent pool for this specialty area. We notify our talent pool candidates first whenever we have a project need.

Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, the following:

Note: We are seeking candidates of various skill levels, and the following responsibilities represent the core of these roles. Scope and complexity increase with experience level.

• May lead delivery of assigned projects or task orders, from planning and design through construction and closeout.
• Oversee scope, budget, schedule, and risk, and give program leadership an early and honest read when any of the four starts to move.
• Oversee designers and contractors against their scope, design criteria, and schedule commitments, and escalate deviations while they are still cheap to fix.
• Administer construction contracts, including submittals, requests for information, progress payments, and time extension requests.
• Evaluate change proposals and claims for entitlement, cost impact, and schedule impact, and recommend a position to program leadership.
• Coordinate with program controls staff to develop and validate cost forecasts, CPM schedule updates, and earned value reporting.
• Coordinate across agencies, utility owners, railroads, adjacent contracts, and other third parties so decisions inside the package account for work outside it.
• Oversee construction staging and phasing that keeps existing operations running.
• Oversee quality and safety compliance, verifying that contractor programs are being followed and that installed work matches approved documents.
• Oversee commissioning, operations readiness, and transition to maintenance for completed facilities.
