Project Manager — Commercial General Contractor

Location: Indianapolis (Carmel), IN


About the Company

A respected regional general contractor with deep roots in central Indiana. They're not the biggest name in town — and that's by design. They're the one the big firms subcontract the hard stuff to. Self-perform concrete and carpentry. Their portfolio spans commercial office, industrial, and institutional work, typically $10M-$40M. Family-founded, second-generation leadership, and the kind of place where PMs stay for 15+ years.


The Role

Project Manager who can run the full life of a project and isn't afraid to be hands-on. You'll estimate selectively, manage buyout, run owner meetings, and stay close to the field. This isn't a corporate PM seat where you're three layers removed from the work — you'll know every sub on your job by name. Small enough that your voice matters, big enough that the checks don't bounce.


What You Bring

  • 5+ years of PM experience with a commercial GC
  • Comfortable wearing multiple hats — estimating, buyout, field coordination
  • Experience with self-perform work a major plus
  • Ground-up commercial experience preferred
  • Degree in Construction Management or Engineering preferred, not required


Why This One

  • Carmel office — north side, no downtown commute
  • Profit-sharing that actually pays out
  • Autonomy without micromanagement — second-gen ownership trusts their people
  • Pipeline balanced between negotiated and repeat-client work
  • Real work-life balance at a firm that doesn't chase every dollar
