Project ManagementFull-time

About the Role

A well-established civil and mechanical contractor in the Nashville area is seeking an experienced Water/Wastewater Project Manager to oversee complex municipal treatment plant projects from preconstruction through final closeout. This role is for a strong project leader who understands WTP/WWTP construction and takes pride in delivering essential infrastructure safely, efficiently, and profitably.

What You’ll Manage

  • Water and wastewater treatment plant projects from preconstruction through completion
  • Project budgets, schedules, forecasts, cost reports, and overall financial performance
  • Process piping, mechanical systems, tankage, structural components, and related civil work
  • RFIs, submittals, change orders, pay applications, contracts, and project documentation
  • Coordination with owners, engineers, municipalities, superintendents, subcontractors, and suppliers
  • Procurement, material deliveries, subcontractor agreements, and project logistics
  • Progress meetings, client communication, and regular project updates
  • Project risks, field challenges, and solutions that keep work moving
  • Safety, quality, regulatory, and contractual compliance

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of project management experience in water and wastewater construction
  • Strong knowledge of treatment plants, process piping, mechanical systems, and structural construction
  • Proven ability to manage budgets, schedules, cost controls, and project profitability
  • Experience leading both self‑perform and subcontracted scopes of work
  • Strong communication, organization, negotiation, and leadership skills
  • Ability to read and interpret plans, specifications, contracts, and technical documents
  • A proactive approach to problem‑solving, planning, and client relationships

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Strictly local work—remain close to home while managing meaningful projects
  • Competitive compensation and full benefits
  • Stable, long‑term opportunity with a respected regional contractor
  • Steady municipal project backlog throughout the Nashville area
  • High‑impact work supporting the region's growing water and wastewater infrastructure
  • A supportive leadership team that values its people and rewards strong performance
