Project Manager – Self-Perform Concrete Construction

Location: Sioux Falls, SD region (1–2 hours preferred)

A rapidly growing, family-owned self-perform concrete contractor is seeking an experienced Project Manager to help lead major private-sector concrete projects across the Upper Midwest. The company has evolved from small farm work into a trusted concrete partner for large commercial, industrial, multifamily, and data center clients — with 99% private work and project values typically ranging from $3–5M+, and flagship, multi-phase projects reaching $15–20M per phase.

With consistent double-digit growth, a multi-year backlog, and strong repeat-client relationships, this is an opportunity to join a company on an exciting upward trajectory.

Why This Role Matters

• Family-owned, values-driven culture with hands-on ownership

• True self-perform model — nearly all concrete work completed in-house

• 15–20% year-over-year growth with long-term client commitments

• Sub-1.0 EMR and strong safety culture

• EOS implementation underway to support structure and scalability

• Expansion plans include a Sioux Falls satellite office

Role: Project Manager (Concrete Construction)

We’re seeking an experienced PM who can confidently run complex concrete projects and take ownership from award through closeout. This is not an entry-level role — ideal candidates bring 5–10+ years of experience and strong financial, leadership, and client-focused skills.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage projects from preconstruction through turnover (budget, schedule, change management, documentation)

• Own project financials — forecasting, cost tracking, and margin performance

• Lead RFIs, submittals, change orders, and coordination

• Utilize Bluebeam, Procore, and Trimble/ProjectSight (experience preferred, not required)

• Work closely with outsourced estimators to review take-offs and finalize bid numbers

• Maintain strong relationships with owners, GCs, developers, and vendors

• Represent the company early in design phases, positioning for upcoming opportunities

• Support field teams and project engineers as a culture carrier and leader

Ideal Background Best Fit (Concrete PM)

• Self-perform concrete experience (slabs, foundations, walls, tilt-up, industrial, multistory, etc.)

• Background with reputable concrete-focused contractors

• Proven ability to drive project financials and P&L outcomes

• Comfortable traveling 1–2 days per week as needed (mostly structured day trips)

Also Considered

Candidates from strong commercial GCs or heavy civil contractors with:

• Solid PM fundamentals

• Some exposure to concrete work

• Willingness to deepen their concrete experience

If you meet ~80% of the requirements and are open to relocating to Sioux Falls, you will be seriously considered.

Travel Expectations (Realistic & Manageable)

• Generally 1–2 days/week onsite for key projects

• Often structured as day trips (early morning out, return same day)

• Long-term plan: project engineers onsite 4–5 days/week, reducing PM travel

• Projects fall within an 8-hour radius along the I-29 corridor (ND, SD, MN, northern MO, IL)

• This is not a heavy-travel or weekly hotel-stay role

What They’re Looking For (Soft Skills & Mindset)

• Ownership mentality — treats each project like a business

• Strong communicator with credibility in front of owners and developers

• Process-oriented PM who brings structure and consistency

• Someone excited to grow with the company as it scales from ~$50M toward $80M+

• Willingness to relocate to the Sioux Falls region (strongly preferred)

Compensation & Growth Path

• Competitive salary based on experience (ideal range: 5–15 years as a PM)

• Clear advancement track: Project Engineer → PM → Senior PM → leadership potential

• Opportunity to help build and lead the planned Sioux Falls satellite office

• Long-term stability with multi-year, multi-phase data center and commercial work already awarded

If you're a driven PM ready to make an impact in a fast-growing concrete organization, we’d like to connect.
