Job Description

Senior Commercial Construction Project Manager

Senior Project Manager – Commercial General Contractor | Lincoln, NE | $100,000–$125,000 base

Ready for more than managing a schedule? Join an established, people-focused commercial general contractor where you can own entire building projects, build lasting client relationships and have a genuine voice in how work gets done.

Why consider this move?

• A genuine seat at the table: work closely with leadership, contribute ideas and see decisions turn into action.
• The chance to own outcomes and strengthen client relationships—not just administer schedules.
• A close-knit, family-oriented workplace known for investing significantly in its people and helping them grow.
• An established business where long-serving team members demonstrate that people can build lasting careers.
• Broader exposure, professional development and a meaningful opportunity to help shape what comes next.

Your impact

• Own commercial building projects from planning and buyout through construction, closeout and lasting client relationships.
• Lead schedules, budgets, costs, subcontractors, trade coordination, quality and accountability across the full project.
• Drive execution—not simply monitor milestones—and proactively solve problems before they become client problems.
• Partner in estimating: review estimates, assemble scopes, solicit and compare subcontractor bids, and connect preconstruction decisions to field delivery.
• Build trust with clients and trade partners, including thoughtful follow-through after project completion.
• Bring practical ideas to strengthen processes and help a growing business operate even better.
• Required experience
• At least 4–5 years of direct commercial building project management for a general contractor, with personal responsibility for the complete project across multiple trades.
• Approximately 4–5 years of meaningful involvement in commercial estimating; you need not have been the lead estimator, but must understand scopes, pricing and bid processes.
• Experience with commercial buildings such as manufacturing, multi-use facilities, metal buildings or pre-engineered metal buildings is especially relevant.
• Strong ownership, follow-through, judgment, communication and client-relationship skills.
• Able to work onsite in Lincoln, Nebraska; this is not a remote or hybrid role.

Salary, benefits and growth

• Base salary: $100,000–$125,000; flexibility for an exceptional candidate (final offer based on experience).
• Annual performance bonus opportunity.
• Company SUV with fuel, insurance and maintenance covered; work-related expenses supported.
• Medical coverage with approximately 80% of premiums paid by the employer; family dental premiums covered.
• 401(k) with company match (eligibility/waiting period applies).
• Financial-advisor benefit and meaningful investment in continuing education, training and professional development.
• Potential relocation assistance for the right candidate.

Location and schedule

Full-time, onsite in Lincoln, Nebraska. No remote or hybrid arrangement. Relocation may be considered for the right candidate.
