Construction Project Manager (Environmental)
Location: Charlotte, Raleigh, or Greenville, NC
Work Style: Hybrid (heavy remote flexibility)
About the Role
Join a growing environmental team where your construction expertise directly supports projects that protect communities, restore natural systems, and improve critical infrastructure. As a Construction Project Manager (Environmental), you’ll lead field and construction activities for environmental, remediation, and infrastructure projects across the region—while enjoying the flexibility of a hybrid schedule and the option to sit in any of our North Carolina offices.
This is an excellent opportunity for a construction‑savvy professional who wants to expand into environmental project delivery, manage meaningful work, and collaborate with technical experts across multiple disciplines.
What You’ll Do
- Lead construction oversight for environmental and infrastructure projects, ensuring safety, quality, and compliance from kickoff through closeout.
- Manage contractors, subcontractors, and field teams while maintaining strong relationships with clients and regulatory partners.
- Oversee daily field operations, including site inspections, progress tracking, documentation, and issue resolution.
- Coordinate closely with environmental scientists, engineers, and project managers to keep projects on schedule and within scope.
- Review plans, specifications, and submittals to ensure alignment with project goals and environmental requirements.
- Prepare and maintain project documentation, including reports, schedules, budgets, and field logs.
- Support procurement, contractor selection, and contract administration.
- Serve as a key point of contact for clients, providing updates, addressing questions, and ensuring a smooth project experience.
- Travel to project sites as needed (short‑term, regional travel).
- Contribute to a collaborative, solutions‑oriented team culture.
What You Bring
- Experience managing construction projects—environmental, civil, remediation, or infrastructure experience is a plus.
- Strong understanding of construction sequencing, site safety, contractor coordination, and field operations.
- Ability to interpret plans, specifications, and technical documents.
- Excellent communication skills and confidence working with clients, contractors, and internal teams.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
- Self‑motivated, dependable, and comfortable working independently in a hybrid environment.
- Willingness to travel regionally for site visits and short‑term field assignments.
- Valid driver’s license and ability to meet standard background requirements.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with environmental construction, remediation, landfill, or civil sitework.
- Familiarity with environmental regulations, permitting, or compliance.
- Experience working with public agencies, utilities, or industrial clients.
- Interest in long‑term growth within environmental project management.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Hybrid schedule with heavy remote flexibility
- Choice of three NC office locations
- Meaningful environmental project work
- Opportunities for growth and cross‑disciplinary collaboration
