Project Manager

TLDR

Lead commercial and industrial plumbing projects from pre-construction through closeout, actively managing on-site teams and ensuring quality and compliance throughout execution.

Some plumbing companies grow by adding trucks. This one has grown by building a reputation — for industrial-grade work, trenchless technology expertise, and a team that shows up when it matters, including at 2 a.m. when a facility can't afford to be down. Our client is a well-established commercial and industrial plumbing contractor serving a broad multi-state footprint across Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri, with capabilities spanning mechanical piping, sewer relining, municipal infrastructure, and full-scope commercial plumbing. They're looking for a Project Manager who came up through the field, still thinks like someone who did, and can lead crews on-site with the kind of authority that only comes from actually knowing the work.

What You'll Own

  • Manage commercial and industrial plumbing projects from pre-construction through closeout, with active presence in the field throughout execution
  • Directly supervise and lead plumbing crews on-site — setting the pace, solving field problems, and holding the team accountable to schedule and quality
  • Coordinate project sequencing, manpower deployment, and material procurement to keep jobs moving without interruption
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, GCs, and inspectors — representing the organization professionally and maintaining relationships built on trust and follow-through
  • Track project costs, labor hours, and job progress in real time, escalating issues before they become change orders
  • Ensure work is performed in compliance with applicable codes, safety standards, and project specifications
  • Contribute to pre-construction planning, scheduling, and scope review ahead of project kickoff

Requirements

  • Hands-on commercial or industrial plumbing background — you came up in the trade, not through an office — and your field credibility is evident from the first conversation
  • Experience supervising plumbing crews directly on-site; candidates whose background is limited to subcontractor coordination or administrative project management will not be considered
  • Strong working knowledge of commercial and/or industrial plumbing systems, mechanical piping, and applicable codes
  • The ability to read and interpret construction drawings and plumbing specifications in the field
  • Proven track record managing multi-million dollar plumbing scopes from start to finish
  • Long-term commitment orientation — this organization values stability and candidates fully dedicated to the role
  • Familiarity with Northwest Arkansas or surrounding regional market is a plus
