Project Manager - Structural Steel

Project Manager
Steel only counts when it is detailed right, fabricated on time, and set safely. This role owns that path-from contract through closeout-so complex buildings and non-building structures leave the shop and the field without defects or accidents. You are the person who keeps schedule, cost, quality, and the customer in one conversation. When you recognize a need, you fulfill it.

Performance Objectives

Deliver assigned structural-steel projects on the agreed schedule and within budget, from award through final closeout.

Turn drawings, specs, and contract documents into a fabrication and erection plan the shop and field can execute without rework.

Hold margin by tracking cost, quantities, and change orders in real time, and by pricing and documenting scope changes before work proceeds.

Keep detailing, fabrication, erection, vendors, and the customer aligned so submittals, material, and crews hit the same milestones.

Resolve field issues on site-sequence, fit-up, access, and safety conflicts-so plans and reality stay in sync.

Report progress, risk, and forecast to division leadership early enough to protect the job, not after the damage is done.

Leave every project with a complete closeout package and a customer who will call us for the next one.

Environment & Resources
You report to the Division Manager and lead day-to-day delivery with estimators, detailers, shop supervision, and field erection. Work runs from a Central Texas office with regular visits to active sites. You will use Tekla, Trimble Connect, and our project-management system-not side spreadsheets-to run schedules, submittals, and cost. Safety equipment is provided. Core hours are Monday-Friday; the job site sets the rest of the calendar.

Essential Qualifications

Proven record running commercial construction projects through closeout, with steel fabrication or erection experience strongly preferred.

Ability to read structural drawings and specifications and catch conflicts before they hit the shop or the crane.

Hands-on control of schedules, budgets, and change orders-not just status updates.

Clear written and verbal communication with customers, subcontractors, and crews under deadline pressure.

Comfort on active jobsites and a non-negotiable standard for safe work.

Working proficiency in MS Office; Tekla or equivalent steel project systems is a plus.

Why This Role

One accountable team from shop drawings to topped-out steel-not a handoff between strangers.

A defined path: deliver here, and Senior Project Manager and division leadership are earned, not promised.

Modern steel tools and a fabrication shop built for complicated work, not workaround culture.

People-first values-Safety, Teamwork, Ethics, Enthusiasm, Leadership-with real benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) match, PTO, and paid volunteer time.

Thirty-plus years of quality and pride behind the name you put on the transmittal.
