Job Description
Construction Project Manager - Federal Projects
A nationally recognized General Contractor is seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead complex federal construction projects across the U.S. This is an opportunity to join a builder known for delivering critical work for agencies such as USACE, NAVFAC, DOD, and other federal clients — with the resources, systems, and leadership support to do the job right.
If you thrive in structured, high-accountability environments and want to be part of a contractor trusted with some of the country's most important projects, this role is worth a closer look.
What You'll Be Doing
Lead federal construction projects from preconstruction through closeout
Manage project budgets, schedules, contracts, and risk
Serve as the primary point of contact for owners, inspectors, design teams, and internal leadership
Oversee and mentor project engineers, APMs, and field teams
Ensure strict compliance with federal requirements, safety standards, and quality control plans
Coordinate with Superintendents to maintain schedule, productivity, and site execution
Drive successful project outcomes while maintaining strong client relationships
What They're Looking For
Proven Project Management experience on federal construction projects
Experience with USACE, NAVFAC, DOD, VA, GSA, or similar agencies
Strong understanding of EM 385-1-1, CQM, submittals, RFIs, and federal documentation
Ability and willingness to travel or relocate based on project needs
Strong leadership, communication, and decision-making skills
Proficiency with project management tools such as Procore, P6, or similar platforms
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Work for one of the nation's leading General Contractors with a long federal backlog
Large-scale, high-visibility projects with real responsibility and autonomy
Competitive compensation package including base salary, bonus, per diem, housing, and travel support
Clear path for long-term career growth within a stable, well-capitalized organization
Strong operational support — you're not doing this alone
Who This Is a Great Fit For
Federal PMs looking for bigger projects and broader responsibility
Project Managers ready to step into a national platform
Professionals who value structure, process, and accountability
Leaders who want their work to matter — not just another commercial build
