  • Monitor progress, adjust schedules, and prepare reports for management, owners, and subcontractors.
  • Maintain focus on productivity improvements and technical problem-solving.
  • Enforce safety protocols and promote a culture of safety on every job site.
  • Manage project schedules, claims documentation, material purchasing, subcontractor agreements, and change orders.
  • Build and sustain relationships with subcontractors, clients, engineers, DOT officials, and regulatory agencies.
  • Represent the company in public presentations, stakeholder meetings, and contract negotiations.
  • Lead project closeouts, including documentation, retainage release, claims resolution, and performance debriefs.
Requirements

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management, or related field (preferred).
  • 5–10 years of progressive construction and management experience.
  • Proven track record overseeing 2–4 DOT roadway/highway projects for a contractor.
  • Strong knowledge of high-traffic arterial construction, sequencing, and safety requirements.
  • Skilled in schedule management, cost control, and crew optimization.
  • Excellent negotiation, communication, and relationship-building skills.
Benefits

Why Join Us:
This is a strategic leadership position where you will shape project delivery for some of Central Florida's most significant road and highway improvements. You'll have the authority to lead teams, influence outcomes, and leave a lasting impact on the region's infrastructure.
