Take Ownership of Critical Infrastructure Projects

We’re hiring a Project Manager / Estimator with strong experience in wastewater, municipal, mechanical, and structural steel projects.

This is not a paper-pusher role. You will be responsible for everything from bidding the job to running it and ensuring it’s profitable and compliant.

If you understand piping systems, treatment facilities, and regulatory-heavy environments, this is a high-impact opportunity to lead complex, essential infrastructure work.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Identify and pursue bid opportunities in wastewater and municipal sectors
  • Perform detailed estimating and takeoffs (materials, labor, equipment) — with and without prints
  • Prepare biddable documents and complete cost breakdowns
  • Manage projects from award through completion
  • Oversee work involving:
    • Pump stations, piping systems, and process piping
    • Structural steel and misc. steel repairs/installations
    • Tank rehabilitation and treatment system upgrades
  • Coordinate and manage subcontractors and vendors
  • Create and manage RFIs, submittals, and project schedules
  • Ensure compliance with:
    • PA DEP regulations
    • NPDES permits
    • EPA and other regulatory requirements
  • Plan and execute plant shutdowns without disrupting operations or compliance
  • Conduct jobsite visits and track progress daily
  • Monitor job costs, maintain budgets, and ensure profitability
  • Resolve technical, scheduling, and contractual issues


Requirements

What We’re Looking For
  • Proven experience as a Project Manager / Estimator in wastewater, municipal, or industrial construction
  • Strong estimating experience (REQUIRED) — with and without blueprints
  • Piping and pipe layout experience (preferred)
  • Experience working with treatment plants, pump stations, or similar infrastructure
  • Knowledge of PA DEP, NPDES, and regulatory documentation (HIGHLY preferred)
  • Ability to manage complex, compliance-driven projects
  • Strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills
  • Ability to travel regularly to job sites


Benefits

Compensation & Perks
  • $80K – $100K base salary (depending on experience)
  • $700/month vehicle allowance
  • Gas card provided
  • Company cell phone + laptop
  • Full-time, long-term opportunity with strong project pipeline
