Location: Lakeland / Polk County, FL area (full time onsite)

An established heavy civil contractor is hiring an Assistant Project Manager for a large multiyear highway program in the Lakeland and Polk County area. This is a strong next step for a Project Engineer ready to move up, or an APM who wants a big job with a long runway and a stable employer. You'll work alongside the project manager on planning, subcontracts and contract administration so the job stays on budget and on schedule, much of it state highway work. Central Florida locals are great, and candidates ready to relocate are welcome.
What You'll Be Responsible For:
- Support the project manager on cost, schedule and resource planning
- Administer subcontracts and purchase orders, and coordinate subs and suppliers
- Manage submittals, RFIs and change order paperwork with the owner
- Track quantities, pay items and monthly pay estimates
- Coordinate crews, material and equipment with the superintendents
- Keep permits, licenses and project documentation current
- Help update the schedule and the cost forecast
- Back the field on safety and quality
- Report progress to the project manager and the owner
What We're Looking For:
- 3+ years on heavy civil highway or bridge projects as a Project Engineer, Field Engineer or APMFour year degree in Construction Management, Construction Science or Civil Engineering
- Solid with submittals, RFIs, quantities and pay estimatesFDOT or Turnpike experience is a plus
- Clear writer and communicator under schedule pressure
- Primavera P6, HCSS or Bluebeam is a plus
- Based in Central Florida or ready to relocate to the Lakeland area
- Why This Role Is Worth a Conversation
- Full time role with an established heavy civil builder, not a one project hire
- Full benefits package
- A large multiyear program with a long runway of work
- A clear path from APM to Project Manager
- Heavy civil work on the kind of projects that build a career.
