Senior Construction PM – Hybrid in VA | Lead Multi-Project Delivery

Own construction management assignments from award through closeout across our municipal, transportation, and private-sector portfolio. Hiring at mid-level or senior; the assignment mix is built around your experience.

Racey Engineering is hiring a Construction Project Manager to lead delivery on our municipal, transportation, and private-sector construction portfolio. You own the client relationship from award through closeout, coordinate contractors and design consultants, and keep the work safe, on schedule, and within budget.

We hire at the mid-level or senior level based on what you bring. If you've run the work in the field - as a VDOT or municipal inspector, a contractor's superintendent, or a PM - we want to hear from you, degree or not. If you also want civil project management or pre-construction and estimating work in your mix, say so in your application - we will build the assignment mix toward it.

Specific duties include, but are not limited to:

• Serve as Racey's primary point of contact for construction activity on assigned projects, interpreting the client's needs in the office and in the field.
• Facilitate progress meetings with the client, contractors, superintendents, vendors, QA/QC, testing and inspection, and safety personnel.
• Prepare and submit progress reports, advising the client team on budget and schedule impacts and forecasts.
• Read and interpret plans, and support estimating, pre-construction programming, bidding, and proposal development.
• Prepare, schedule, coordinate, and monitor assigned construction projects.
• Establish and run job processes - RFIs, change orders, pay applications, and the coordination of approvals, tracking, and follow-up.
• Conduct regular field visits to verify conformance to plans and specifications and address issues before they become delays.
• Manage project budgets, forecasts, and cash flow; review and process pay applications, change orders, and vendor invoices.
• Supervise the project team and mentor assistant PMs, project engineers, and project administrators (senior level).

Mid-Level

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or a related field - or equivalent hands-on construction management experience. We weigh what you've built and managed as heavily as the diploma.
• 5-8 years of construction management experience on civil, transportation, structural, or building projects.
• Demonstrated ability to run projects through pre-construction, construction, and closeout.
• Working knowledge of construction contracts, RFIs, submittals, change orders, and pay applications.
• Familiarity with VDOT and municipal specifications and processes preferred; VDOT construction inspection, ESC/SWM, or work zone certifications count in your favor.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Valid driver's license in good standing.

Senior Level (all of the above, plus)

• 10 or more years of construction management experience, including multi-phase and multi-discipline assignments.
• Proven experience mentoring project engineers, assistant PMs, and administrative staff.
• Track record of managing project budgets in excess of $5M.

• Ability to lift and carry a minimum of 50 lbs.
• Travel throughout Virginia, typically 25 to 50 percent depending on active project mix, with occasional overnight assignments.
