The Opportunity

This Is Not a “Manage the Schedule” Role, this is a lead the leaders role.

 

Alpha Inc. is searching for a true A-Player Senior Project Manager — someone who can run complex civil projects and elevate the people running them.

If you’re the kind of leader who:

  • Thrives in accountability, clarity, and high expectations

About Alpha Inc.

Alpha Inc. is a locally owned Hawaiʻi contractor delivering heavy civil construction, concrete, energy, drilling, and infrastructure solutions that serve island communities for generations.

 

We don’t just build projects — we build people, trust, and long-term impact.

Our culture is grounded in three core values:

  • Lead with Heart – Respect people. Develop talent. Do the right thing, even when it’s hard.
  • Strength in Unity – One team, one mission. We win together or not at all.
  • Alpha Mentality – High standards, personal ownership, and relentless improvement.

 

As Senior Project Manager, you are a culture carrier of these values on every jobsite and in every meeting.

 

Your Mission

You are responsible for the successful execution of multiple civil projects by leading, mentoring, and holding accountable our Project Managers and Project Engineers.

  • Projects delivered on time, on budget, and to Alpha standards
  • PMs who grow stronger, more confident, and more capable under your leadership
  • Clear communication, clean handoffs, and zero surprises
  • Clients who trust Alpha because execution is consistent and professional

 

Lead & Develop the Project Management Team

  • Directly lead, mentor, and coach Project Managers and Project Engineers across multiple projects
  • Set expectations, inspect what matters, and provide real-time feedback
  • Act as the escalation point for complex issues — solving problems with your team, not for them

Drive Project Execution Excellence

  • Oversee planning, scheduling, and execution of civil construction projects
  • Ensure scope, schedule, budget, safety, and quality targets are consistently met
  • Partner with PMs to allocate manpower, equipment, and materials effectively

Own Financial & Schedule Discipline

  • Oversee project budgets, cost controls, and forecasting
  • Approve project-related expenses and ensure financial targets are achieved
  • Track progress against milestones and intervene early when projects drift

Be the Connector

  • Maintain strong relationships with clients, inspectors, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders
  • Communicate clearly and consistently with Operations leadership on project status, risks, and wins

Raise the Bar

  • Identify risks before they become problems and implement mitigation strategies
  • Improve project management systems, processes, and best practices
  • Reinforce safety, compliance, and quality standards without compromise

 

What an A-Player Looks Like Here

We’re not looking for just experience—we’re looking for judgment, leadership, and pride in execution.

 

Experience & Background

  • 8–10+ years in construction project management (civil preferred)
  • 5+ years leading Project Managers and/or Engineers
  • Proven success managing multiple concurrent projects
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or related field preferred

  • Exceptional communicator who builds trust with crews, clients, and leadership

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
