Position Title

Construction Manager - CSA (Civil, Structural & Architectural)

About This Opportunity

We are building the leadership team for a large-scale semiconductor FAB campus project in West Lafayette, Indiana, supported by the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act.

The Construction Manager will take direct ownership of all civil, structural, and architectural construction activities, managing site superintendents and subcontractor teams to ensure safe, on-schedule, and on-budget field execution.

This is a senior field leadership role. You will plan and supervise CSA work fronts, coordinate multi-trade subcontractors, and maintain accountability for quality, safety, and schedule performance across all assigned scopes.

• Directly supervise site superintendents and subcontractor field teams; establish clear performance expectations and maintain accountability for daily progress
• Coordinate multi-discipline work sequencing across civil, structural steel, concrete, and architectural scopes running concurrently; resolve trade conflicts before they impact schedule
• Monitor field progress against baseline schedule and budget; identify variances early and develop corrective action plans in coordination with the Site Manager
• Ensure compliance with project-specific construction standards and applicable codes including IBC, AISC, ACI, NFPA, and OSHA requirements
