Full Job Description

Pre-Construction Manager (Bid Operations) — Public Works General Contractor

Towaco, NJ | On-site | $95,000–$130,000 + benefits

Brockwell & Carrington Contractors, Inc. (B&C) is a New Jersey-based public works general contractor seeking an experienced Pre-Construction Manager to own our bid process and pre-award operations. This is a high-impact role reporting directly to the President, with significant influence over which projects we pursue, how competitively we bid them, and how cleanly they hand off to project management upon award.

About the Role

We bid approximately 30 public works projects per year across New Jersey municipalities, counties, authorities, and state agencies. The Pre-Construction Manager is the operational backbone of that effort — ensuring every bid is complete, competitive, well-covered by subcontractors, and informed by real market intelligence.

Core Responsibilities

Own the bid calendar end-to-end: identify opportunities through project solicitation sites and direct agency monitoring; manage go/no-go decisions in coordination with the President and Chief Estimator
Run subcontractor solicitation and coverage tracking; identify and resolve coverage gaps before bid day; cultivate ongoing relationships with our Category A/B/C subcontractor base
Ensure complete and accurate bid document preparation: insurance and bonding compliance, specific contract qualification compliance, addenda management, certifications, and all agency-specific submission requirements
Attend public bid openings; capture bid results, apparent low bidders, and pricing spreads in real time
Procure and manage competitive intelligence and market research; track competitor activity, identify market patterns, and feed insights back into bid strategy
Manage post-award kickoff and handoff to project management, including subcontractor commitment documentation, scope confirmation, and pre-construction coordination
Maintain and improve subcontractor database, pre-qualification process, and bid playbooks
Support business development efforts on the firm's growing private-work portfolio

What You Bring

5+ years of relevant experience in construction pre-construction, estimating support, bid coordination, or adjacent public-works roles (project engineer, owner's representative, agency contract administration all considered)
Demonstrated track record of follow-through on multi-step processes with multiple deadlines
Strong working knowledge of the New Jersey public works contracting environment: prevailing wage, public bid law, contract qualification requirements, and standard public construction documents
Comfort with bid management software, takeoff platforms, and standard MS Office tools
Comfort working in a small, direct-communication environment without multiple management layers
Excellent written communication and document discipline

What This Role Is Not

This is not a technical estimating role. Quantity takeoff, pricing, and final number preparation are owned by our Chief Estimator and Lead Estimator. The Pre-Construction Manager works closely with them but focuses on process, coordination, completeness, intelligence, and relationship management — not generating estimates. Candidates seeking a hands-on estimating seat should not apply.

Compensation and Benefits

Base salary: $95,000–$130,000 commensurate with experience
Discretionary year-end bonus based on firm and individual performance
Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield employer-paid health insurance (employee)
Dental and vision insurance available (employee-paid)
Simple IRA
Paid time off, paid holidays, bereavement leave, jury duty
Company cell phone or cell phone allowance
Mileage reimbursement at IRS standard rate
Professional development allowance and industry involvement, including ACC NJ membership

To Apply

Please submit a resume and a brief cover note describing one specific example of a process or system you have improved in a prior role. Generic cover letters will not be reviewed.

Pay: $95,000.00 - $130,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Dental insurance
Health insurance
Life insurance
Paid time off
Retirement plan

Work Location: In person
