Senior Project Manager - Civil Construction

We are representing a highly respected, rapidly growing civil construction firm headquartered in Danvers, Massachusetts, with offices throughout New England and New York. Known for delivering complex infrastructure projects with precision and innovation, this company has built an outstanding reputation in transportation, utilities, site development, and renewable energy sectors.

Our client has experienced more than 25% annual growth for the past five years and is deeply integrated with major utilities across the region. They are positioned at the forefront of the civil infrastructure boom, with a strong project pipeline and long‑term stability.

This is an excellent opportunity for a proven construction leader to join a company with an engaged leadership team, a collaborative culture, and a track record of promoting from within.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Senior Construction Manager who can take full ownership of high‑profile civil and utility infrastructure projects from planning through completion. The ideal candidate will be self‑motivated, skilled at delegating to a capable team, and able to maintain a strategic, big‑picture perspective while ensuring daily operations run smoothly.

This individual must be comfortable leveraging technology to improve workflows, communicating effectively with multiple stakeholders, and driving projects to successful, on‑time delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all phases of large‑scale civil construction projects from pre‑construction through final closeout.

• Manage and mentor project managers, superintendents, and field staff to ensure team alignment and performance.

• Maintain overall project oversight while delegating effectively to achieve efficiency and quality.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, engineers, subcontractors, and other stakeholders.

• Implement and maximize the use of construction technology and project management software.

• Ensure compliance with safety regulations, contract obligations, and company standards.

• Anticipate and resolve technical, scheduling, and logistical challenges.

• Drive a culture of continuous improvement and collaboration.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of progressive construction management experience, with 5+ years in a senior leadership role.

• Demonstrated success delivering large‑scale civil, utility, or infrastructure projects.

• Strong leadership, delegation, and team development skills.

• Excellent communication and relationship‑building abilities.

• Proficiency with construction technology, scheduling tools, and project management systems.

• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or related field preferred.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Competitive salary with significant performance‑based bonuses.

• Comprehensive benefits and retirement plan.

• Strong internal promotion culture—many current leaders rose from within.

• Proactive salary adjustments aligned with market conditions.

• Engaged and approachable leadership team with a hands‑on presence.

• Frequent company‑sponsored activities and events, including team‑building outings and holiday celebrations.
