Preconstruction Manager

We are seeking an experienced Preconstruction Manager to lead preconstruction activities for commercial construction projects, with a strong focus on water and wastewater treatment facilities . This is a long-term career opportunity for someone looking to grow with an established organization—not someone who frequently changes jobs every 1–2 years.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead preconstruction activities from initial planning through transition to construction.
  • Develop conceptual and detailed estimates, bids, quotes, schedules, and procurement strategies.
  • Coordinate with owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, vendors, and internal project teams.
  • Review plans for constructability, budget, scheduling, phasing, and potential risks.
  • Prepare and manage RFIs, bids, quotes, change orders, and project documentation.
  • Solicit, evaluate, and coordinate subcontractors and suppliers.
  • Assist with subcontractor buyout and procurement of equipment and long-lead materials.
  • Participate in design and project meetings and help ensure projects transition smoothly into construction.
  • Support project budgeting, scheduling, risk management, and overall project planning.
  • Lead preconstruction efforts for water/wastewater projects, including process systems, utilities, phasing, and operational considerations.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of commercial construction project management experience.
  • Water or wastewater construction experience is required.
  • Experience with commercial projects; residential construction experience alone will not be considered.
  • Experience with RFIs, bidding, estimating, quotes, subcontractor management, and project coordination.
  • Strong understanding of construction plans, schedules, budgets, and contracts.
  • Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office and construction/project management software.
  • Ability to work independently while effectively leading and collaborating with a project team.
  • Strong career history and demonstrated interest in long-term professional growth.
