Senior Project Manager - Mission Critical

Findorff
Davenport, IA Full Time
POSTED ON 10/29/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/27/2026

Founded in 1890, Findorff is a commercial construction company based in Wisconsin and building throughout the U.S. We deliver best-in-class craftsmanship to projects within healthcare, science and technology, industrial, and more, driven by strong relationships and a deep commitment to the communities we serve. 

What We Are Looking For

  • 10-15 years of progressive construction project management experience in commercial construction
  • Demonstrated success leading large-scale projects valued at $80M or more from preconstruction through closeout
  • Experience supporting complex commercial projects such as data centers, healthcare, or other technical environments
  • Proven ability to negotiate and manage complex project situations with a high level of professionalism and sound judgment
  • Advanced knowledge of building systems, MEP coordination, construction methods, sequencing, and trade partner management
  • Extensive experience with contract administration, cost forecasting, change management, and financial risk management

  • Established track record of leading project teams with a collaborative, team-first leadership approach

What You’ll Do

As a Senior Project Manager with Findorff, you’ll lead complex mission critical construction projects from early planning through commissioning and closeout, owning the process, the relationships, and the results. These projects demand exceptional coordination, disciplined execution, and the ability to anticipate challenges before they affect schedule, cost, or quality. You’ll serve as a trusted leader to your project team and partners, helping deliver reliable, high-quality facilities that meet demanding performance and operational requirements.

  • Apply Construction Expertise: Leverage your understanding of building systems, construction methods, and mission-critical infrastructure to anticipate challenges, mitigate risks, uphold quality standards, and drive safe, effective project execution.
  • Lead Procurement & Trade Management: Oversee bidding, contract negotiations, subcontractor and vendor selection, and submittal management. Proactively manage long-lead equipment and materials to support critical project milestones and maintain schedule certainty.
  • Drive Planning, Scheduling, and Execution: Develop and manage comprehensive project schedules, coordinate complex construction sequencing and MEP activities, lead project meetings, and align self-perform teams, subcontractors, and design partners to keep work progressing safely and efficiently.
  • Own Financial Performance: Lead project financial management from preconstruction and estimating through forecasting, cost control, contract administration, and change management. Identify financial risks early, manage project exposure, and drive results that meet or exceed established goals.
  • Build Client Confidence & Drive Results: Serve as a key point of leadership for the client and project partners, communicating project status, navigating complex decisions, and balancing cost, schedule, quality, safety, and operational requirements to deliver a successful project.
