Job Description
Blazey Construction Services
Houston, TX
You've run utility and civil projects long enough to know where the money is made and lost. Now you want the biggest jobs, a seat at the table with leadership and a team of PMs to build.
We're hiring a Senior Project Manager to lead our largest, most complex utility, civil and roadway projects and develop the Project Managers who run them with you.
Why Blazey Construction Services
This role has real reach. You'll work directly with executive leadership, help shape how bids are reviewed and handed to the field, and set the project management practices the rest of the team follows. We're hiring a Project Manager and a Junior Project Manager at the same time, so you'll build and mentor that team from day one. Our team runs on three values: communication, mutual respect and accountability.

What you'll do:
- Lead several large, complex projects at once, owning budgets, master schedules, forecasts and cash flow

- Take projects through closeout, including financial reconciliation, warranties and turnover
- Mentor and develop Project Managers and Junior PMs, and help set the team's best practices
- Build long-term client relationships that bring in repeat work
What we're looking for:
- 10+ years of construction, utility or civil project management experience
- A track record on multi-million-dollar utility, civil or roadway projects; wet utility experience strongly preferred
- Experience leading Project Managers and large, multi-disciplinary teams
- Deep knowledge of pipe materials (PVC/SDR35, VCP, C-900, HDPE, RCP, ductile iron), large diameter storm drain, crane requirements and shoring
- Strong contract administration, job cost control and financial forecasting
- Negotiation, conflict resolution and claims avoidance skills
- Excel and enterprise project management software; Planswift a plus
- Valid Texas driver's license
- A degree in construction management, engineering, business or a related field is preferred, but equivalent senior construction leadership experience counts
