Project Manager for earthworks and construction projects

Do you want to drive earthworks and civil engineering projects safely to completion? Take responsibility for finances, progress and strong collaboration – from first customer contact to handover.

Apply for the job

Do you have solid experience with project management and do you thrive on having control of both finances, progress and people? Maybe you already have experience with earthworks and civil engineering and want to put it to use on both large and small projects, mainly in Jutland.

As a project manager at Gustav H. Christensen you will have an important role in the execution of projects from the first contact with the customer to the final handover. You will have independent responsibility for your projects and become the one who creates overview, ensures progress and gets customers, employees, suppliers and partners to work well together.

Your eye for both the big picture and the details should help ensure that the projects are completed safely – on time, within budget and with quality.

Your tasks

• Coordination of projects from estimation and bidding to final delivery
• Leadership of the project team with focus on collaboration, progress and development of employees' competencies
• Contract negotiations with subcontractors as well as ongoing planning and management of subcontractors
• Handling of project finances, budgets and processing of tender materials
• Planning of resources and activities, including procurement and follow-up on deliveries
• Active work with safety and quality management as an integrated part of the project’s operation
• Participation in construction meetings, where you contribute with professional input and help find technical solutions
• Preparation of risk assessments and proactive handling of the challenges that arise along the way
• Documentation and follow-up on the projects via IT systems

Your workplace will at the outset be at the office in Snejbjerg, but several days a week you will also have your workstation at the construction sites.

Who are you?

We are looking for an experienced project manager who is used to independently driving projects and taking responsibility for both planning, finances, coordination and progress.

You probably have a construction-technical or engineering education such as civil engineer, diploma engineer or another relevant education. If you also have experience with earthworks, sewerage or civil engineering, that will be a clear advantage. Otherwise you come with solid project management experience, technical understanding and the desire to delve into the company’s area of expertise.

As a person you work in a structured way and manage to keep an overview – even when there are many activities and people involved. You follow up, make the necessary decisions and find solutions to the challenges that arise along the way.

You thrive on dialogue and collaboration around the projects and manage to build good relationships with employees, customers, advisers, suppliers and subcontractors. At the same time you contribute to good internal cooperation and are happy to share your experience and professionalism with colleagues.

What can you expect?

As a new employee at Gustav H. Christensen you can look forward to an independent job with freedom under responsibility and good opportunities to plan your day so that there is a balance between work and private life. The position is full-time, and you get a fixed base together with your colleagues at the office in Snejbjerg.

Most of your upcoming colleagues have been employed in the company for many years and are among other things drawn by the strong social community and the informal atmosphere. A particularly active staff association arranges several annual social activities, and in addition there are more informal initiatives in everyday life – such as when the grill is lit for a hotdog before the weekend.

You will be remunerated with an individually negotiated fixed monthly salary as well as pension and health insurance. In addition, a company car, mobile, PC and necessary equipment are provided.
