Construction Project Manager I

Can You Keep a Project Moving... Even When Everything Else Isn't? Construction has a funny way of testing people. Schedules shift. Equipment is delayed. Someone always has one more question. Clients need answers. Subcontractors need direction. And somehow, everything still needs to be delivered safely, on budget, and on time. If you're the type of person who sees all of that and thinks, "I've got this," keep reading. Who We Are At C1S Group, we don't just build projects. We solve problems that most firms run away from. For more than 25 years, we've partnered with Fortune 500 manufacturers to design and build facilities in the food & beverage, life sciences, aerospace & defense, and technology industries. Many of our projects happen in active manufacturing environments where shutting down production isn't an option. That means every day requires planning, communication, creativity, and a team that knows how to adapt. Fortunately, that's our specialty. We're also serious about building a workplace where people actually enjoy coming to work. That's earned us recognition as one of the Best Places to Work by the Dallas Business Journal because we believe taking care of our people is the best way to take care of our clients. Around here you'll find high trust, high accountability, talented teammates, very little bureaucracy, and people who genuinely enjoy solving tough challenges together.
