We're looking for a Construction Manager to lead the technical execution of our projects — from buyout through closeout. You'll own subcontractor management, drawing review, field coordination, cost control, and quality of the finished work.

This is a growth role. FCI is growing, and the right Construction Manager will grow with us — into Senior Construction Manager, Director of Construction, and beyond as the company expands.

Primary Responsibilities:

Subcontractor Management

Identify, solicit, and buy out subcontractors for assigned projects

Hold subcontractors accountable to scope, schedule, quality, and safety

Resolve field conflicts, scope gaps, and coordination issues between trades

Review and approve subcontractor pay applications based on work in place

Project Execution

Read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contract documents

Lead constructability review during preconstruction — catch scope gaps before they hit the field

Coordinate trade sequencing, site logistics, and phasing with the General Superintendent

Walk sites regularly, resolve issues in real time, and keep projects moving

Work closely with FCI's Project Management Team

Estimation, Cost & Schedule

Own project cost from buyout through closeout

Track committed costs, projected final costs, and margin

Manage change order pricing and scope control to protect margin

Build realistic schedules and drive recovery plans when projects slip

Quality, Safety & Closeout

Enforce FCI's safety program and applicable OSHA/EM385 standards

Coordinate with our Quality Control Managers on QC standards and testing

Lead punch list resolution, closeout documentation, and final turnover

What We're Looking For:

Required:

Minimum 5 years of federal construction management

Experience running commercial AND federal projects in the $1M – $10M range

Strong drawing and specification reading (architectural, structural, MEP)

Subcontractor management experience — buyout, coordination, accountability

Comfort with cost tracking, change orders, and margin discipline

Strong communication and problem-solving skills

Willingness to grow — take on more responsibility, learn federal construction, and step into leadership

Preferred:

Federal construction experience (USACE, NAVFAC, VA, GSA, or agency direct)

OSHA 30, EM385, or CSSHO certification

Construction software fluency

Growing subcontractor network in the DC / NCR market

Engineering or construction management degree

Why FCI

Growing federal contractor

Opportunity to grow into senior leadership as the company expands

Veteran-owned business committed to mission and team
