Traveling Project Manager

Traveling Project Manager

At River City Construction, our Project Managers play a key role in leading construction projects from start to finish. They work closely with other departments to ensure each project is carefully planned, delivered on time, within budget, and meets high standards for safety and quality.

This particular opportunity is designed as a Traveling Project Manager role, overseeing projects outside of our typical footprint. Our Traveling PMs gain exposure to a wide variety of clients, markets, and project types, providing an unmatched opportunity to grow both professionally and personally. To recognize the commitment of being on the road, we offer comprehensive travel incentive packages that may include per diems, stay accommodations, travel stipends, and additional travel-related benefits.

Project Managers are expected to understand the overall picture of their projects, manage priorities independently, and lead teams that may include superintendents, foremen, engineers, safety staff, procurement, and others. They may also support new work efforts by helping to develop client relationships and project opportunities.

We offer a flexible work environment that supports meeting team members where they are at in both work and life while keeping project needs and deadlines top of mind. As a Traveling Project Manager, you will spend time onsite at projects, with scheduled trips home built in to support balance and recharging between assignments. Onsite presence will be required during mobilization, critical phases, and closeout to ensure strong leadership and successful delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

Project Leadership: Collaborate with Project and Field Operations team members to ensure high performance across all projects.

Team Coordination: Oversee all aspects of your project team, use technology to improve efficiency, maintain current schedules, and work with client reps and field teams to ensure quality results.

Project Execution: Manage budgets, procurement, forecasting, job costs, and cash flow. Lead efforts to meet project goals and ensure a client-focused experience.

Relationship Building: Develop strong working relationships with clients, partners, and vendors, serving as the main point of contact throughout each project.

Field Support: Address jobsite challenges, lead progress meetings, resolve issues, manage changes, and ensure safety and documentation compliance.

Travel Commitment: Work across various RCC regions, adapt quickly to new environments, and serve as a trusted RCC representative in diverse client settings.

At RCC, we’re committed to building great projects and great teams. If you're passionate about building cool projects, collaborating with diverse teams, and enjoy the adventure of traveling to new places, we’d love to talk with you.
