Job Description

🔨 Project Manager (with Estimating Duties)

📍 Nashville, TN area | 🕒 7 AM–4 PM Schedule | 💵 $80K–$100K Base + 20% Bonus

💰 Compensation & Benefits

• Base Salary: $80,000–$100,000 (based on experience)
• Bonus: 20% annual bonus tied to company performance

• Perks:
• 🏥 Medical, dental, vision (50% employer-paid)
• 💼 401(k) with ~4% match (immediate vesting)
• 📈 Annual raises (informal performance-based)
• 🏖️ Work-life balance – rare overtime, task-focused days

🏗️ What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll manage structural steel projects from start to finish. You’ll be in charge of keeping everything moving — from field measuring and scheduling to client coordination and estimating small change orders.

🎯 Key Responsibilities:

• Run projects from award to completion (detailing ➝ fab ➝ erection)
• Conduct field measurements for existing structures and retrofits
• Coordinate with detailers, erectors, shop managers, and GCs
• Estimate small to mid-sized change orders (large ones go to Jerry)
• Maintain project timelines and handle change orders as needed

👷‍♂️ Who You’ll Work With

• A tight-knit team of 2 other PMs
• Reports to Jerry’s lead estimator (position currently vacant)
• Close coordination with detailers, shop staff, and on-site crews

🧰 What We’re Looking For

✅ Must-Have Skills:

• Strong structural steel knowledge (components, drawing interpretation, estimating)
• Hands-on field experience — you should be just as comfortable with a tape measure as with a spreadsheet
• Excel proficiency (we use paper drawings — no fancy software here)

⭐ Bonus Points For:

• Experience negotiating and pricing change orders
• Familiarity with small to mid-sized steel shops (bonus if you’re local to Tennessee)

🚫 Not a Fit If You:

• Come from a large, highly automated company
• Need constant structure or can’t adapt to field conditions
• Bring a big ego — we’re a no-nonsense, team-first crew

🌟 Why Join Us?

• Autonomy: You’ll run your own jobs with little micromanagement
• Culture: Down-to-earth team that values hard work, not hierarchy
• Balance: Work hard, get home on time
• Growth: New role created due to increased workload — we’re growing
