Project Manager / Estimator
Environmental / Remediation / Field Operations Homeland Environmental LLC
About Homeland Environmental
Homeland Environmental is a Colorado-based environmental remediation company focused on high-quality execution, operational accountability, and strong client communication. We specialize in complex environmental and remediation projects that require urgency, professionalism, compliance, and precision.
We are not looking for someone to simply “coordinate projects.” We are looking for an operator — someone who can take ownership, solve problems proactively, communicate clearly, and keep projects moving without constant oversight.
This is a high-accountability role with significant autonomy and growth opportunity for the right person.
Our Core Values
These are the standards we hire to and operate by. If they resonate, you’ll fit here.
Integrity — Doing the right thing when no one is looking. It is the filter for every client and team relationship, and it is non-negotiable. The standard is simple: don’t say it if you can’t back it up. In this role, that means honest estimates, honest timelines, and honest conversations — even when the truth is the harder answer.
Wealth — To us, wealth is more than money. It is freedom, family, quality of life, and the ability to build something that creates real options. The business is the vehicle that makes it possible, and profitability is what powers it — so we want people who protect margin and treat the company’s success as their own.
Personal Development — Growth is the throughline: responsibility, execution, follow-through, and initiative. If you are growing, you are accountable and you are moving forward. We give real autonomy and expect you to use it — own your outcomes, push work across the finish line, and sharpen your craft every quarter.
Position Summary
The Project Manager / Estimator owns the full project lifecycle — from estimating and pricing the work through kickoff, execution, and closeout — ensuring jobs are won at the right margin and then delivered on schedule, within budget, compliant, and professionally managed.
You will scope and price jobs, then own the projects you bid — coordinating crews, subcontractors, schedules, materials, documentation, customer communication, compliance requirements, and project execution from start to finish.
You are expected to identify problems before they become emergencies, communicate proactively, and maintain a high standard of operational execution.
This role is ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, takes ownership naturally, and can balance estimating, field operations, customer service, and project management simultaneously.
