Lexington, KY | Full-Time | $130,000 – $160,000 + Year-End Bonus

Build Something That Lasts

Join a people-focused design-build firm and lead projects from first concept to final closeout. Since 1976, we have completed more than 10,000 projects, and 90% of our work comes from repeat clients. Our team has been named a "Best Place to Work" in Kentucky.

About the Role

As Senior Project Manager, you will oversee every phase of the construction process. You will coordinate contractors, engineers, architects, vendors, and in-house crews, and build lasting relationships with the clients we serve. You will also mentor our junior Project Managers and help develop the next generation of leaders.

What You'll Do

  • Manage multiple projects at different stages, from design through closeout
  • Meet with clients to define functional and spatial needs, then prepare specifications, materials, budgets, and schedules
  • Administer construction contracts and lead client progress meetings

  • Oversee drawings and specification documents, and keep design and budget goals on track with the owner
  • Partner with estimating on the advertising and bidding of projects
  • Secure all required state and local permits and licenses
  • Manage project finances, including subcontractor costs, billing, and owner payments
  • Work with superintendents to monitor progress, worker productivity, and building and safety code compliance
  • Build schedules covering design and engineering, bidding, buyout, construction, and closeout
  • Respond to weather and owner-requested changes with solutions that limit delays

What You Bring

Required

  • 15 years of project management experience
  • 20+ years in the construction industry
  • Commercial construction experience
  • Experience leading design-build projects
  • Bachelor's degree in architecture, construction management, engineering, or business (strongly preferred)

Core Skills

  • Excellent project and budget management
  • Strong communication and negotiation skills
  • Proven ability to manage multiple projects and meet client deadlines
  • Sharp attention to detail and the ability to produce high-quality work
  • Strong organization and time management
  • Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills
  • Adaptability to rapid changes in schedule and design

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary of $130,000 – $160,000, plus a year-end bonus paid around December 1
  • Company car and gas card
  • Medical, dental, and life insurance
  • 401(k) with a 3.5% company match

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
