Project Manager / Superintendent
Contract | Nationwide
$500–$600/day | Project-Based Engagements | Flexible Schedule
About the Opportunity
Are you an accomplished construction professional who has spent years mastering your craft — and is now looking for something different? We are a small, experienced, and very busy construction company seeking a seasoned Project Manager/Superintendent for contract-based work on projects across the United States. Engagements range from a few weeks to a few months, giving you the flexibility to work when and where it suits you, without the constraints of a traditional full-time role.
This is an ideal opportunity for a highly experienced construction professional who wants to stay active and engaged in the industry on their own terms — bringing deep expertise to each project without the commitment of a permanent position.
What the Work Looks Like
- Contract-based, project-by-project engagements — you choose what fits your schedule
- Projects located in various cities across the U.S.
- Short to mid-length durations — typically a few weeks to a few months
- Compensation: $500–$600 per day
- No office politics, no annual reviews — just focused, professional project execution
- Commitment matters: once you accept a project, we expect you to see it through to completion — no walking away mid-job
What You’ll Do
- Lead all phases of construction projects from kickoff through closeout, including planning, scheduling, budgeting, and resource allocation
- Oversee daily site operations with a sharp eye on safety, quality standards, and project specifications
- Manage subcontractors, vendors, and project teams — keeping communication clear and workflow on track
- Review and interpret blueprints, schematics, contracts, and construction documents to drive accurate execution
- Develop and maintain project schedules using Primavera P6 or similar software
- Monitor progress through regular site inspections; utilize Bluebeam for document review and markups
- Prepare cost projections and control budgets using estimating tools such as HeavyBid
What You Bring
- Extensive hands-on experience in construction management or as a superintendent — heavy civil or commercial projects preferred
- A career built on getting things done: you know how to read a job site, manage people, and solve problems before they become delays
- Proficiency with industry tools including Procore, Primavera P6, Civil 3D, Bluebeam, and HeavyBid
- Deep knowledge of contracts, safety regulations, and quality assurance on large-scale projects
- The ability to step into a project, assess the situation quickly, and lead with confidence
- Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach — you’ve led teams before and know how to earn respect on day one
- A professional reputation built on reliability and follow-through — you finish what you start
Who Thrives in This Role
This position is a natural fit for a construction veteran who has led major projects, knows the industry inside and out, and is looking for the freedom and variety that contract work provides. You value autonomy, take pride in your work, and have no interest in being micromanaged. You bring your experience, do the job right, and move on to the next opportunity — on your schedule. Above all, you are someone who honors their commitments: when you say you’ll be there, you’re there — from the first day of the project to the last.
