Job Description

Construction Manager – Municipal and Public Works Projects

Sequence has been exclusively retained and is currently seeking a dynamic Construction Manager to join one of Northern California’s most respected third-party construction management consultancies — a firm recognized for providing trusted leadership and oversight on major municipal infrastructure and capital improvement projects across the Bay Area and Central Coast.

This is among the most visible leadership opportunities of its kind in the industry – a unique chance to step into a senior-level construction management role where your work directly shapes communities, guides multi-million-dollar projects, and strengthens the infrastructure that keeps California moving.

We are seeking a proven Construction Manager with a strong record of performance in public works, transportation, or municipal infrastructure projects. The successful candidate will bring both strategic leadership and hands-on construction insight , capable of navigating complex schedules, contracts, and stakeholder expectations while keeping projects advancing smoothly in the field.

This could be the right position for an accomplished senior professional seeking a long-term home with a stable, respected organization , or for a talented mid- to senior-level manager ready to step up into a broader leadership role . The firm values initiative and growth – providing the mentorship, resources, and trust to help strong performers rise quickly.

The role can be based anywhere within the greater San Francisco Bay Area — from the City itself to the East Bay, South Bay, or even Santa Cruz. It combines office-based coordination with regular onsite field engagement , including oversight of active project sites to ensure quality, safety, and compliance (approximately 40% office / 60% field , primarily weekdays with occasional weekend requirements). While regional travel is routine, most assignments are day trips with staff home by evening — offering both professional variety and personal balance.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead pre-construction planning, coordination, and kickoff meetings.
• Oversee construction activities from field management through project closeout.
• Evaluate contractor compliance; process RFIs, pay requests, and change orders.
• Manage schedules, budgets, and documentation to ensure contract integrity.
• Provide oversight, reporting, and communication to client agencies and stakeholders.
• Identify risks, resolve challenges, and uphold project excellence standards.

Desired Qualifications

• Minimum 5 to 15+ years of experience as a Construction Manager with public works project experience.
• Registration as a Certified Construction Manager (CCM) or California Civil Engineer (PE) strongly preferred.
• Knowledge of Caltrans standards and state/federal-funded project requirements .
• Strong understanding of roadway, utility, and infrastructure systems .
• Exceptional communication, organizational, and leadership skills.

Why This Opportunity

This is an excellent opportunity to join a company that values integrity, collaboration, and professional excellence — where leadership is recognized, initiative is rewarded, and your expertise makes a visible impact on the community.

The firm’s culture emphasizes teamwork, mentorship, and respect , with a shared belief that great outcomes come from great people working together.

This same philosophy extends to its benefits. The organization offers a competitive compensation package commensurate with experience, along with vehicle stipend and other performance-based incentives and a comprehensive suite of benefits , including health, dental, vision, retirement, and professional development support.

Relocation assistance is available for the right individual — essentially, anything of reason can be structured to secure the most capable and talented professional for this role.
