Construction Project Manager – Prefabricated/Modular Construction

Location: Minden, NV
Salary: $80,000–$90,000 annually
Schedule: Full-Time | On-Site
Industry: Construction | Modular Construction | Prefabricated Buildings | Design-Build

About the Opportunity

We are recruiting on behalf of an established construction and manufacturing company seeking an experienced Construction Project Manager to join its team in Minden, Nevada.

This is not an entry-level project coordination position. Our client is looking for a construction professional who understands how projects come together, can independently manage scope, budget, schedule, change orders, documentation, and customer expectations, and is comfortable making day-to-day project decisions without significant hand-holding.

The Project Manager will oversee multiple prefabricated and modular building projects from contract handoff through design, procurement, production, delivery, installation, and closeout.

This position is based at the company's Minden production facility, allowing the Project Manager to work closely with the teams physically constructing the buildings while managing the overall project from an office-based environment.

If you are an experienced Construction Project Manager who enjoys solving problems, managing a high-volume workload, and taking ownership of your projects, this could be an excellent opportunity.

What You'll Do

As Construction Project Manager, you will serve as the primary day-to-day owner of assigned projects and coordinate across customers, contractors, designers, production teams, vendors, and other internal departments.

Responsibilities include:

Manage construction projects from internal contract handoff through final closeout
Review contracts, plans, specifications, cost worksheets, scopes, and customer commitments for accuracy
Confirm project scope and identify potential gaps or discrepancies before work is released
Establish and maintain project schedules, milestones, priorities, and critical deadlines
Manage multiple active projects simultaneously, with workload varying based on project size and complexity
Coordinate design, purchasing, production, delivery, and installation activities
Manage submittals, RFIs, plan redlines, approvals, purchase orders, and project documentation
Identify long-lead items, project risks, site requirements, and customer responsibilities early
Monitor project budget, costs, scope, schedule, and quality throughout the project lifecycle
Prepare, evaluate, communicate, and track change orders
Make sound day-to-day project decisions and recommend solutions when issues arise
Communicate proactively with customers regarding schedules, decisions, approvals, changes, and project status
Coordinate closely with construction, manufacturing, design, procurement, vendors, contractors, and other project stakeholders
Confirm site readiness and coordinate building delivery and installation requirements
Support final walkthroughs, punch lists, outstanding-item resolution, and project closeout
Maintain complete and accurate project records and documentation
Identify opportunities to reduce errors, delays, rework, and recurring project issues

What We're Looking For

The right candidate has a construction-heavy background and understands more than project administration. You should be able to look at an issue involving scope, schedule, budget, drawings, procurement, or construction and determine the appropriate next step.

Required / Strongly Preferred Qualifications

3+ years of construction Project Management experience
Demonstrated responsibility for project scope, budget/costs, schedules, change orders, and customer or contractor coordination
Working knowledge of construction plans, specifications, submittals, RFIs, purchase orders, and change orders
Experience independently managing projects and making critical day-to-day decisions
Ability to identify project risks and bring forward both the problem and a recommended solution
Experience managing multiple projects, deadlines, and stakeholders simultaneously
Strong understanding of construction processes and project sequencing
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Highly organized with strong prioritization and time-management skills
Strong analytical, critical-thinking, and problem-solving abilities
Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-volume project environment
Proficiency with Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel, and Teams

Experience That Could Be a Great Fit

Candidates may come from backgrounds including:

Commercial construction
Design-build construction
Modular or prefabricated construction
Public works construction
Manufacturing-related construction
Specialty construction
General contracting

An associate or bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Business, Project Management, or a related field is preferred but not required when equivalent experience is demonstrated.

PMP, CAPM, CMIT, or similar certifications are a plus but are not required.

Technology

Experience with the following is helpful:

Microsoft Office, including Excel, Outlook, Word, and Teams
Salesforce CRM
Mission Control or similar project management platforms
Adobe Acrobat
SharePoint
Electronic document-control and shared-drive systems

Experience with the company's specific systems is not required; the ability to learn and consistently use project management and documentation tools is more important.

Work Environment & Travel

This is an on-site position based in Minden, NV and is primarily office-based.

Unlike a traditional construction PM position where you may spend most of your week driving between jobsites, the company's production and construction operations are located at the Minden facility. You'll be able to see projects being built and collaborate directly with the teams responsible for producing them.

Occasional travel may be required for building installations, jobsites, factories, vendors, or customer locations.

Compensation & Benefits

Base Salary: $80,000–$90,000 annually

Our client also offers a strong full-time benefits package that contributes significantly to total compensation, including:

Multiple medical insurance plan options
Dental insurance
Vision insurance
Employer-paid life insurance
401(k) retirement plan with employer matching
Paid time off beginning to accrue from the start of employment
10 standard paid holidays
Additional company-paid holidays offered in 2026
Employee recognition and anniversary program

What Success Looks Like

This role is a particularly strong fit for someone who:

Takes ownership instead of waiting for someone else to solve the problem
Can confidently manage scope, budget, schedule, and change
Recognizes project risk before it becomes a crisis
Is comfortable balancing a substantial portfolio of active projects
Communicates clearly with both customers and internal teams
Understands construction well enough to ask the right questions and make sound decisions
Can work autonomously while knowing when an issue truly needs to be escalated
Enjoys being part of a collaborative team while remaining accountable for their own projects

The organization expects there to be a learning curve as you become familiar with its specialized products and processes. They are not looking for someone who already knows their exact business—they are looking for an experienced construction professional who brings the project management judgment, ownership, confidence, and construction foundation needed to learn it successfully.

Ready to Learn More?

If you are an experienced Construction Project Manager looking for a stable, long-term opportunity where you can take genuine ownership of your projects while working closely with the team actually building them, we encourage you to apply.

We are conducting the initial recruiting and interview process on behalf of our client. Qualified candidates will be contacted to discuss the opportunity, their construction project management background, and next steps in the interview process.
