What are the responsibilities and job description for the Project Manager - Structural Steel/Misc. Metals position at The Berlin Steel Construction Company?
The Berlin Steel Construction Company is a full-service specialty contractor, primarily with structural steel and miscellaneous metals. We design, fabricate, and erect structures in the Northeast and in other parts of the country. We have 2 fabrication facilities, 4 erection operations facilities, and 6 office locations that provide engineering and management of projects. We are a 100% employee-owned company (ESOP) with a desire for growth. We service the private commercial, public, institutional, and industrial markets.
We are seeking an experienced Traveling Project Manager to support structural steel and miscellaneous metals projects across multiple regions. This position is ideal for a self-sufficient construction professional who thrives in fast-paced environments and can independently manage projects from award through closeout.
This is not a remote position. Candidates must be willing to travel based on project needs. When assigned to a project in a market where Berlin Steel has an office, the expectation is that the Project Manager will work out of that office location while supporting the project.

- Coordinate with engineering, detailing, fabrication, erection, vendors, and customers to keep projects moving efficiently
- Maintain project schedules, track milestones, and proactively resolve issues
- Participate in job meetings, site visits, and customer coordination meetings
- Support project execution while maintaining quality, safety, and budget expectations
- Prepare and manage cost tracking, billing support, and project documentation
What We’re Looking For
- 5–7 years of structural steel and/or miscellaneous metals experience required
- Proven experience independently managing construction projects
- Strong understanding of steel fabrication, erection processes, drawings, sequencing, and field coordination
- Ability to effectively manage multiple priorities with minimal oversight
- Experience handling project financials, schedules, subcontractors, and customer communication
- Strong communication, negotiation, and problem-solving skills
