Construction Operations Program Manager

Express Employment Professionals - Fairview Heights
Glen Carbon, IL

Ready to steer complex builds from kickoff to closeout?

We’re looking for a construction leader who can coordinate people, plans, and budgets—then bring it all together safely and on schedule.

What you’ll own

  • End-to-end oversight of construction projects: scope, cost, schedule, quality.
  • Cross-functional collaboration with architects, engineers, and subcontractors to deliver per spec.
  • Regular site presence to verify progress, remove roadblocks, and keep crews productive.
  • Full control of project paperwork—contracts, change orders, RFIs, and progress reports.
  • Clear communications to stakeholders: status updates, risk flags, and action plans.
  • Nonstop focus on safety and quality compliance throughout the build.
  • People leadership: set expectations, coach, and celebrate wins.

Why you’ll grow here

Own visible outcomes, sharpen your leadership toolkit, and influence how projects are delivered—today and on the next one.

Bring this to the table

  • Bachelor’s in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or related field.
  • Track record as a Construction Project Manager (or similar capacity) delivering successful projects.
  • Working command of construction means and methods, materials, and the legal/regulatory landscape.
  • Top-tier communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Fluency with project management software and digital tools.
  • Comfort juggling multiple projects and deadlines without losing precision.
  • Resourceful problem-solver with sharp attention to detail.

Sound like you?

If you enjoy turning drawings into real places—and getting teams aligned to make it happen—we’d love to connect.
