Assistant Project Manager | Industrial Construction | Relocation Available

Please ensure you read the below overview and requirements for this employment opportunity completely.

Location: Wichita, KS Area | On-Site

Experience: 1–3 Years | Early-Career Construction Professionals

Relocation Assistance: Available

Industry: Construction, Engineering, Energy & Manufacturing

Ready to go from supporting projects to running them?

If you're a Project Engineer, Project Coordinator, Field Engineer, or early-career construction professional who wants to become a Project Manager , this opportunity is worth a conversation.

I'm partnering directly with the hiring team at an established, growing industrial construction and engineering organization that's looking to develop its next generation of Project Managers.

They're not looking for someone who already knows everything. They're looking for someone with a strong foundation, initiative, and the ambition to grow.

You'll work alongside experienced Project Managers on complex industrial projects, gaining exposure to the technical, financial, and operational sides of construction management.

The goal? Give you the experience and mentorship to eventually take ownership of projects yourself.

Why I'm Excited About This Opportunity

  • A real path to Project Manager. This is designed as a developmental role, not a permanent support position.
  • Exposure to major industrial projects. Work across construction, energy, manufacturing, and renewable fuels.
  • Learn directly from experienced leaders. Build practical skills in estimating, scheduling, budgets, subcontractor management, and project execution.
  • Long-term earning potential. Develop the experience that opens doors to higher-level construction management opportunities.
  • Relocation assistance available. Open to candidates interested in making the Wichita area home.
  • An established organization with room to grow. Join a team investing in its next generation of project leadership.

Who I'd Love to Speak With

You don't need to have held the Assistant Project Manager title already.

I'm interested in connecting with people who have:

  • 1–3 years of construction, engineering, project coordination, estimating, or related experience, including relevant internships or co-ops
  • A degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field
  • Some exposure to project schedules, budgets, drawings, subcontractors, or field operations
  • Strong communication skills, curiosity, and a willingness to take ownership
  • A genuine interest in building a long-term career in construction project management

Industrial construction experience is a plus, but I'm also interested in candidates with transferable construction experience.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll support projects from planning through execution and closeout, working closely with Project Managers, engineers, subcontractors, and customers.

You'll gain hands-on experience with project schedules, budgets, procurement, construction coordination, change orders, and project reporting, with opportunities to take on more responsibility as you develop.

Let's Talk Before You Apply

I'm working directly with the hiring team on this search.

Rather than submitting a resume into an application system and hoping it gets noticed, you'll have the opportunity to speak with me about your background, career goals, and whether this is the right next step.

I can walk you through the position, share insight into what the hiring team values, and help you understand how your experience aligns before presenting your background for consideration.

Interested? Apply here or message me directly. I'd be happy to have a confidential conversation. xhyhwjd
