About Our Client

Our client is a well-established Wisconsin commercial contractor with a decades-long reputation for delivering high-quality renovation, industrial, laboratory, office, and specialty construction projects.

You'll work directly alongside company ownership, gain exposure to estimating and business development, and eventually have the opportunity to own key client relationships. The organization is entrepreneurial by nature, rewards performance, and provides a clear path for individuals who want to grow their influence within the business.

The Project Manager - Commercial will:

  • Manage commercial construction projects from estimating through closeout.
