Project Manager / Estimator Civil Construction

Known for fostering a close-knit culture, the company invests in training and innovation to remain at the forefront of the construction industry. With a commitment to balancing tradition and progress, Vrana Civil continues to expand its capabilities, attracting skilled professionals and consistently delivering exceptional results to clients.

Vrana Civil is looking for a proven builder and leader to step into one of the most important roles in our company.

This is not a middle-management PM position. This role reports directly to the President and is built for someone who wants to do more than manage projects. The right person will lead major work today while also helping shape the future of the company for years to come.

If you've built complex concrete paving and structural work, know how to lead strong field and office teams, and want a bigger seat at the table, this is that opportunity.

• Most senior PM jobs talk about leadership. This one actually gives it to you.
• You'll work directly with the President, help drive major project decisions, influence operations, mentor the next generation, and play a real role in the long-term growth of the company.
• No layers. No silos. No waiting on decisions.
• This is a role for someone who wants to help build something that lasts.

• We believe in a hire and retire mentality.
• We are not looking for someone chasing the next title every couple of years. We want someone who is looking for the right place to invest long-term, grow with the business, and help lead where the company goes next.

• Lead major heavy civil projects from preconstruction through closeout
• Take full ownership of concrete paving and structural scopes
• Drive estimating, budgeting, forecasting, scheduling, staffing, and execution
• Partner closely with superintendents and field leadership to maximize production
• Solve problems quickly and keep projects moving
• Build strong relationships with owners, engineers, subcontractors, and key partners
• Mentor project engineers, assistant PMs, and emerging leaders
• Help improve how the company operates, plans, and grows
• Serve as a key leader in shaping the future direction of Vrana Civil

• At least 8+ years of experience in concrete paving and/or structural work
• Degree in Civil Engineering or Construction Management
• Strong heavy civil construction background
• Experience managing structures such as bridges, box culverts, retaining walls, cast-in-place structures, or utility structures
• Ability to lead large, complex projects with confidence and accountability
• Strong grasp of cost control, production, scheduling, sequencing, and risk management
• A leader who can earn trust in the field, communicate clearly, and make things happen
• Someone looking for a long-term opportunity, not a short stop

• Based in Omaha, Nebraska
• Local work only no travel required
• Strong preference for candidates with ties to the Omaha market

• You'll report directly to the President.
• You'll lead critical work.
• You'll have the ability to impact operations, people, growth, and the future of the business.
• If you want a bigger seat at the table and the chance to help shape what a company becomes over the next several years, we want to talk.
• Competitive Compensation + Benefit Packages
