Construction Manager/ Foreman, Site Manager, Civil Engineering, Procurement / Purchasing
Our client is a premier design-build site and underground utility contractor with a long record of mission-critical work. They're in the middle of a $65M+ data center build in Shreveport
, with 1.5 years of work still ahead
, and a 3-year utility installation program for another data center is lined up behind it. That gives you years of work on large, visible projects, with the kind of experience data center owners and GCs now look for.
You'll own full-lifecycle delivery of utility and site construction projects, from preconstruction through client turnover, alongside the Senior PM and a strong field team.
What you'll do- Lead projects from preconstruction through closeout in a design-build environment
- Build and manage total, interim, and look-ahead schedules
- Own project budgets: cost tracking, forecasting, and cost control
- Be the primary client contact on large, mission-critical sites
- Coordinate superintendents, field crews, and subcontractors on labor, equipment, and materials
- Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, and claims
- Support constructability reviews and coordinate design information with BIM and design teams
- Identify risks early and protect schedule and budget
- Run closeout: punch lists, final documentation, and turnover
- Champion a strong safety culture
- Mentor Assistant Project Managers and Field Engineers
- Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil or Environmental Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
- 5+ years in utility construction, heavy civil, or infrastructure project management (about 7 years is ideal)
- Data center or mission-critical exposure (about 2 years ideal)
- Large-project experience ($10M+ preferred)
- Experience managing multiple projects at once in a design-build environment
- Strong command of schedules and cost control, using Procore, Primavera P6, or MS Project
- Solid contract management skills, including change orders and claims
- Working knowledge of OSHA and safety standards
- Valid driver's license and willingness to travel to job sites
A strong plus: underground utility methods, BIM coordination (understanding it, not building models), permitting and environmental compliance, PMP, OSHA 30, and client negotiation or business development support.
Why this role- A rare runway: years of data center and utility work already awarded
- Large, high-visibility mission-critical projects, with growth toward a Senior PM seat
- A company that invests in training and professional development
- Competitive pay and a comprehensive benefits package
