Job Description

Looking to take the next step in your construction career?

A family-owned heavy civil contractor in the Siouxland area is looking for a Project Manager/Estimator to join their growing team. This is a great opportunity for someone who has experience in heavy civil or underground utilities and is ready to move into a Project Management role.

Whether you're already estimating projects or you're a Superintendent looking to transition into project management, this company is willing to invest in the right person.

The best part? Projects are local—typically within a 50-mile radius of Sioux City—so you'll enjoy a great work-life balance while building your career.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Estimate and manage heavy civil and utility projects from start to finish
  • Prepare bids and review project plans and specifications
  • Develop project budgets and schedules
  • Coordinate crews, subcontractors, vendors, and materials
  • Track project costs and keep jobs on schedule
  • Work closely with field personnel to ensure successful project execution
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with clients and project partners

What They're Looking For:

  • Experience in heavy civil construction, underground utilities, earthwork, or similar projects
  • Previous estimating, project management, superintendent, or field leadership experience
  • Ability to read blueprints and understand construction plans
  • Strong communication and organizational skills
  • No college degree required—experience matters most
  • Desire to learn, grow, and take on more responsibility

Why You'll Love This Opportunity:

  • Family-owned company with a supportive, team-first culture
  • Local projects—typically within 50 miles of Sioux City
  • Excellent work-life balance
  • Competitive compensation
  • Performance-based bonus opportunities
  • 401(k) plan
  • Stable company with a strong reputation and steady pipeline of work
