Concrete Project Manager

Concrete Project Manager -- Site Work & Structural Concrete Gulf Coast Services Houston, TX (on-site) Full-Time Are you the person who reads the pour schedule against the weather, walks the subgrade before the trucks roll, and catches the problem while it is still cheap to fix? As a Concrete Project Manager at Gulf Coast Services, you will own commercial and multifamily concrete scopes end to end -- from buyout and preconstruction through site prep, placement, finishing and closeout. This is not a desk job. You will run the work in the field, hold the schedule against the general contractor's, manage budget and change orders, direct crews and subcontractors, and be the person the GC and the owner call.

ARE YOU?

HANDS-ON AND AT HOME IN THE FIELD. You would rather be on the deck than at the desk. You know the difference between a good slab and a callback is decided before anyone places concrete, and you are there for that part. THINKING SEVERAL STEPS AHEAD. You sequence subgrade, forms, rebar, embeds and placement so nobody is waiting on anybody. You plan around weather, inspection windows and truck timing instead of reacting to them. ACCOUNTABLE FOR the NUMBER. You know what your job is supposed to cost and what it is actually costing. You price changes fairly and early, you do not let scope drift go unwritten, and you can defend a number to a general contractor without losing the relationship. A LEADER WHO HOLDS A STANDARD. You run crews and subcontractors to a schedule and a spec without needing to raise your voice, and you build the kind of rapport with inspectors, GCs and trade partners that gets problems solved on the phone instead of in a meeting.

ESSENTIAL DUTIES MAY INCLUDE:

Within the first 30 days: Learn Gulf Coast's mission, values and field procedures; meet weekly with concrete division leadership to review scope, safety protocols and active work. Shadow existing division leadership to learn Gulf Coast's practices for pre-pour inspection, scheduling, buyout, documentation and cost control. Take on smaller, less complex scopes to get hands-on with our procedures while leaning on the division for guidance. Build working relationships with estimating, field leadership, and the general contractors and inspectors on your jobs. Within the next 3 months and ongoing: Own the budget on your projects -- track labor, material and equipment against the estimate, forecast to completion, and flag cost and schedule risk early rather than at closeout. Price, write and negotiate change orders; identify out-of-scope work as it happens and get it documented before it is performed. Run buyout -- solicit and evaluate subcontractor and supplier pricing, award scopes, and hold partners to what they signed. Run pre-pour walks: verify subgrade, forms, reinforcement, embeds and elevations against the drawings before placement. Schedule and coordinate placements around weather, concrete supply, inspection availability and the GC's overall sequence. #J-18808-Ljbffr Gulf Coast Flooring & Services
