Salary: $110,000 - $163,000 per year

We are a national commercial and industrial construction contractor operating inside a larger publicly traded organization founded nearly a century ago. Our specialty exteriors group self-performs roofing and siding work for commercial and industrial clients nationwide, sitting alongside sister lines in insulation and scaffolding that we collaborate with daily. You get the resources and stability of a large parent with the decision speed and visibility of a small shop.

Tenure here is long: our project management leadership has been with us well over a decade, and this role exists only because the person in it was promoted into a director role on another business line.

• Rapid, funded growth: this division roughly doubles-plus in revenue next year, with the backlog already won — you're hired ahead of the work, not behind it
• 20% annual incentive target that can pay up to 1.5x for exceeding goals, so up to roughly 30% at this level
• Self-perform work with real technical depth. You will not spend your career administering subcontracts — you own scope, crews, and outcomes
• Complexity over headline dollars: we assign our senior people based on schedule pressure, scope difficulty, and customer demands, not just contract value
• A staged, honest path into leadership — roughly 90 days to get grounded before you take a direct report, then a second as the group grows
• Genuine investment in leadership development and a seat on company initiatives, with your voice actually expected in the room
• Cross-training available across our other service lines if you want to broaden technically rather than stay siloed
• Publicly traded parent with an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, profit sharing, and 401(k) match on top of base and bonus
• Long tenure, low ego, and a director who will teach you the specialty if you come from adjacent industrial or commercial work

This Senior Project Manager oversees a portfolio of concurrent projects, including the most complex and highest-risk work in the line of business, and provides leadership, coaching, and performance oversight to Project Managers and Assistant Project Managers. This role differs from the Project Manager level through portfolio responsibility, formal oversight of other PMs, and accountability for elevating the project management function. You are the first line of escalation when a PM on your team hits a customer issue.

Open due to an internal promotion.

• Invest genuinely in the development, wellbeing, and success of every team member, and build a culture that supports the vision, values, strategy, and business objectives of the organization
• Formally develop, coach, and provide performance feedback to Project Managers and Assistant Project Managers in project management methodology, customer and client relationship development, P&L ownership, and the technical skills needed to lead projects
• Expand the team's capabilities by establishing best practices, policies, and processes, and lead hiring decisions for new team members
• Serve as first line of defense on escalations, engaging customers directly to resolve project issues before they reach the director
• Partner with the Director of Field Operations and field leadership to drive best-in-class project execution with safety first in every decision
• Lead lessons-learned and continuous improvement initiatives that shape how the PM team operates

• Manage and execute multi-million dollar or multi-phase…
