Project Manager

Senior Project ManagerByrne & Jones Construction is one of the largest construction companies in the Midwest. For 50 years, our asphalt, concrete, microsurfacing, soil stabilization, engineering and design, parks, and sports divisions have built the roads, parking lots, parks, and athletic facilities communities utilize every day — and we self-perform the work other builders subcontract.We are seeking a Senior Project Manager to own the full lifecycle execution of our design-build projects — sports and park facilities, commercial and institutional work, and site development — from preconstruction handoff through closeout and warranty. You will carry the project P&L, run the buyout, drive constructability and cost savings while changes are still inexpensive, and serve as the primary point of contact for owners, architects, engineers, and subcontractors. It is a seat for a project manager who runs the job rather than reporting on it.What You Will OwnThe project P&L.

Partner daily with your Superintendent on execution, crew loading, equipment, and subcontractor performance.The client relationship.
