Maintain project documentation including purchase orders, contracts, drawings, submittals, and delivery records
Partner with the sales team to ensure a smooth handoff from the quote stage into production execution
Participate in weekly production meetings and help prioritize manufacturing schedules based on project demands
Ensure quality standards and company manufacturing procedures are followed throughout project execution

Required Qualifications

3+ years of project management experience in precast concrete, construction materials, civil infrastructure, manufacturing, or related industries
Strong understanding of construction project schedules and coordination between multiple stakeholders
Ability to read and interpret blueprints, engineering drawings, and project specifications
Excellent communication skills with contractors, engineers, municipalities, and internal teams
Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple active projects simultaneously
Ability to prioritize production schedules in a manufacturing environment

Familiarity with DOT, municipal, and infrastructure construction projects
Knowledge of reinforced concrete manufacturing processes
Understanding of production scheduling and logistics coordination
Experience working directly with general contractors and civil contractors

Key Performance Metrics

Success in this role will be measured by:

Change order management and overall project profitability

What We’re Looking For

This is a hands-on role requiring strong communication, urgency, accountability, and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving manufacturing environment.
