What You'll Be Doing

You'll manage structural steel projects from start to finish. You'll be in charge of keeping everything moving - from field measuring and scheduling to client coordination and estimating small change orders.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Run projects from award to completion (detailing ? fab ? erection)
  • Conduct field measurements for existing structures and retrofits
  • Coordinate with detailers, erectors, shop managers, and GCs
  • Estimate small to mid-sized change orders (large ones go to Jerry)
  • Maintain project timelines and handle change orders as needed

Who You'll Work With

  • A tight-knit team of 2 other PMs
  • Reports to Jerry's lead estimator (position currently vacant)
  • Close coordination with detailers, shop staff, and on-site crews

What We're Looking For

Must-Have Skills:

  • Strong structural steel knowledge (components, drawing interpretation, estimating)
  • Hands-on field experience - you should be just as comfortable with a tape measure as with a spreadsheet
  • Excel proficiency (we use paper drawings - no fancy software here)

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience negotiating and pricing change orders
  • Familiarity with small to mid-sized steel shops (bonus if you're local to Tennessee)

Not a Fit If You:

  • Come from a large, highly automated company
  • Need constant structure or can't adapt to field conditions
  • Bring a big ego - we're a no-nonsense, team-first crew

Why Join Us?

  • Autonomy: You'll run your own jobs with little micromanagement
  • Culture: Down-to-earth team that values hard work, not hierarchy
  • Balance: Work hard, get home on time
  • Growth: New role created due to increased workload - we're growing
