About the role

Project Manager – Civil Construction & Excavation
Location: We're working with a growing excavation contractor in Colorado looking to bring a Project Manager into the business. The company specializes in excavation, earthwork, grading, trenching and underground utility work across commercial and residential construction. This is an opportunity to join a smaller, established contractor where you won't get lost in a massive corporate structure. You'll work closely with leadership, take ownership of projects and play a part in the company's continued growth. Managing excavation, earthwork and site development projects. Coordinating field crews, equipment, subcontractors and suppliers. Managing budgets, schedules, quantities and job costs. Experience managing excavation, grading, earthwork or underground utility projects. A solid understanding of construction costs, production and scheduling. The ability to coordinate field operations and hold teams accountable. Experience with commercial site development and self-performing excavation contractors would be particularly relevant. Direct access to leadership and the opportunity to influence how projects are run. Hands-on project ownership rather than getting buried in layers of management. Varied civil construction work covering excavation, grading, trenching and utilities.. If you've got a background in excavation or civil sitework and want more responsibility, let's have a conversation.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
