Concrete Project Manager - Self Perform Team

Celebrating 85 Years of Building With Purpose At Absher Construction, we’re proud to celebrate over 85 years as one of the Pacific Northwest’s most respected general contractors. As a 100% employee-owned company, we believe our people are our greatest asset and we invest in them like it!

From fully paid medical premiums for employees, to a generous PTO policy, 401(k) and ESOP retirement benefits, we offer a total rewards package that reflects the pride and ownership we bring to every project.

As a Self-Perform Project Manager, you own the outcome. You’ll lead Absher’s self-perform operations on multiple scopes, managing planning, performance, and profitability. This role is deeply rooted in the field where you’ll be walking jobs, pressure-testing plans, mentoring teams, and driving execution where it matters most. This is a builder’s role for someone who thrives on accountability, sees complexity as a challenge worth solving, and understands that high-performing teams are built through discipline, clarity, and collaboration.

What You’ll Do

• Lead project execution to ensure successful delivery, safety, quality, and financial performance of self-perform scopes
• Oversee planning, scheduling, change management, safety integration, quality control, and closeout
• Develop and communicate execution strategies with field leaders to ensure clarity on scope, productivity goals, sequencing, and constraints
• Drive risk planning, identify high-risk activities early, and embed safety into crew planning and daily readiness
• Monitor and resolve field issues proactively, maintaining alignment between estimate, plan, and execution
• Track labor productivity and costs, identify variances, and implement corrective actions to protect schedule and margin
• Supervise, mentor, and develop team members to build the next generation of self-perform leaders
• Serve as the key interface between self-perform teams, GC operations, and project stakeholders, ensuring alignment and scope clarity

Why You’ll Be Successful

You’re not a spectator, you’re an operator. You lead with influence more than authority, thrive on solving complex challenges, and believe in building high-performing teams that win together.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent field experience)
• 10+ years of experience in commercial construction, preferably with self-perform operations
• Proven ability to manage complex scopes, labor productivity, and cost performance
• Strong relationship-building skills with owners, architects, field teams, and trade partners
• Commitment to a safety-first culture and disciplined execution in the field
• Proficiency in construction software (e.g., Procore, scheduling tools) a plus
• Safety certifications (OSHA 30, First Aid/CPR) preferred
