Builders Firstsource Careers Jobs in Usa

IRONDELTA is a steel erection company specializing in pre-engineered metal buildings (PEMB) with some structural steel. We’re looking for a leader who can estimate, build relationships, secure new work, read contracts without crying, and help run the business.

This is not a typical PM job. This is for someone who can think like a builder, strategist, and partner while still staying connected to the field. If you’re the type who can think strategically AND still handle the day-to-day stuff without acting like you’re too important to pick up the phone, we want you.

You will NOT be doing this alone. We already have a Field Project Manager handling daily jobsite activity, field needs, questions, coordination, and the small but important details.

That means your job is to focus on estimating, operations, company growth, and high-level project management.

You guide, coordinate, and keep the company moving in the right direction.

What You’ll Actually Do

1. Estimating & Growing the Company (Top Priority)

• Bid PEMB + steel projects

• Build accurate proposals and scopes

• Review contracts, schedules, exclusions, and terms

• Network with GCs, owners, and industry partners

• Follow up on bids and pursue new opportunities

• Help fill and maintain a strong project pipeline

• Identify future work and support long-term growth

• Strengthen IRONDELTA’s reputation and relationships in the industry

2. Project Management

• Build schedules and keep everyone aligned

• Watch job health: man hours, budget trends, materials, equipment

• Communicate with GCs, owners, and the office

• Solve issues in the field with the Field PM

• Conduct site visits (not every day — you have support)

• Provide oversight to ensure safe, clean, high-quality job sites

3. Company Operations

• Work closely with our Business Operations Manager (you say what and when; she makes the magic happen)

• Communicate milestones, progress, and approved changes for billing

• Improve systems to make field + office flow better — or create new ones if the old ones suck

• Forecast manpower and workload

• Support process development as IRONDELTA scales

4. Leadership

• Support crews without micromanaging

• Mentor and motivate field and office staff

• Promote accountability and teamwork

• Keep documentation accurate and updated

What You Need

• Strong PEMB knowledge — roof & wall sheeting, framing, welding, decking, insulation, trim, etc.

• Ability to read drawings and solve field challenges

• Good communication and follow-through

• Leadership without being a jerk

• Solid problem-solving ability

• OSHA 30 preferred (or willing to get it)

• Must be drug-free and eligible to work in the U.S.

• A reliable truck (you’ll receive $700/Month)

Compensation & Benefits

• $90,000–$100,000 DOE

• PTO accrual

• Paid holidays

• Travel per diem + paid lodging

• Company card + fuel

• Voluntary 401(k) after one year

• Dental, vision, and life insurance

• Short- & long-term disability

Why IRONDELTA?

We’re a small, growing company where your work truly matters.

There’s no red tape, no corporate nonsense, and no layers of pointless approval.

• If you want to make an impact, help grow something real, and be part of a team that values honesty, hard work, humor, and good people — let’s talk.
