Job Description

Airport Construction Project Manager

Our client, a nationally recognized leader in large-scale infrastructure builds, is launching a high-impact aviation fueling construction project in Idaho. They are seeking a skilled Project Manager to lead ground-up development of a critical fueling facility at a major regional airport. This is a unique opportunity to take charge of a $28M+ multi-phase project from day one, with visibility and impact across the entire job lifecycle.

This role offers the chance to lead from the front—building and mentoring a local team, overseeing both subcontractors and internal crews, and serving as the central command for site execution. With long-term runway for career growth and high visibility in a nationally strategic sector, this position is perfect for builders who thrive on challenge, complexity, and ownership.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Direct the full project lifecycle of a greenfield aviation fueling infrastructure build exceeding $28M.
  • Coordinate the efforts of over 20 subcontractors and 1–2 internal construction crews.
  • Oversee scheduling, budgeting, procurement, and trade-specific project documentation across civil, electrical, grading, structural, and fueling systems.
  • Lead site activities, serving as the go-to field representative across internal and external stakeholders.
  • Build team accountability and performance culture while assisting in key hiring decisions.
  • Ensure full compliance with aviation regulations and protocols within a live airport environment.
  • Serve as primary point of contact across all project phases, with future opportunities to stay on for subsequent phases or transition into national project oversight roles.
Candidate Profile:
  • 10+ years of experience in commercial or industrial construction project management.
  • Demonstrated success leading large, multi-trade infrastructure projects from ground-up.
  • Experience managing both subcontractors and internal self-perform teams.
  • Adept at managing budgets, schedules, and project execution from cradle to completion.
  • Prior experience working on aviation or other highly regulated environments is strongly preferred.
  • Self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on GC environment.
  • Familiarity with airport construction is a plus, though not mandatory.
  • Background in general contracting is preferred over owner's rep experience.
Compensation & Benefits:
  • Competitive base salary (DOE)
  • Performance-based bonus structure tied to project profitability (approx. 5–10%)
  • Relocation assistance available for strong out-of-area candidates
  • Opportunity to transition into a national role post-project based on performance
Why Join:
  • Lead a visible, foundational infrastructure project with national impact
  • Join a high-growth firm with long-term opportunities across the country
  • Be part of a team that builds excellence and promotes from within
  • Work on-site, hands-on, and be the critical driver of project success
