Position Summary

The Project Manager is responsible for leading municipal and private trenchless rehabilitation projects from contract award through final completion. This is a hybrid role based out of the corporate office with regular presence at Florida project sites. This position oversees project planning, scheduling, budgeting, client communication, field operations, subcontractors, procurement, and project closeout while ensuring work is completed safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

Responsibilities

• Manage multiple CIPP rehabilitation projects simultaneously
• Develop and maintain project schedules; coordinate crew activities with Operations (Saul Rivera) and ensure field crews are provided with the information, materials, equipment, and resources necessary for safe, efficient, and successful completion of each project
• Monitor project budgets, costs, commitments, and profitability
• Review and approve invoices, purchase orders, and project commitments
• Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, equipment, and material deliveries
• Manage client relationships and serve as the primary project contact
• Prepare submittals, RFIs, change orders, pay applications, and closeout documents

• Collaborate with Operations, Estimating, Accounting, Safety and Fleet to ensure successful project execution
• Maintain accurate project documentation and forecasting

Qualifications

• Minimum 5 years of project management experience in civil construction, utilities, or underground infrastructure
• Background in civil construction project management required; direct experience with CIPP rehabilitation, pipe cleaning, CCTV inspections, bypass pumping, and trenchless rehabilitation methods is ideal but not required — strong civil PMs without trenchless-specific experience are encouraged to apply and will be trained
• No specific degree required; we prioritize hands-on experience, technical skill, and proven project outcomes over formal education
• Strong understanding of project scheduling, budgeting, contract administration, and cost control
• Familiarity with certified payroll / prevailing wage (WH-347) requirements is a plus but not required — training provided for the right candidate
• Proficient with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel
• Excellent leadership, communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills
• Valid driver's license required; role involves regular travel to project sites within Florida

What We're Looking For

We're seeking a driven, organized civil construction professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment. The ideal candidate is proactive, financially minded, and committed to delivering safe, high-quality projects while building strong relationships with clients, field personnel, and subcontractors. Direct trenchless or CIPP experience is a plus, and we're glad to train the right candidate on the specifics — but a background in civil construction project management is what we're looking for.
