Charleston, IL 1 day ago

About KCI

Kinney Contractors is one of the fastest-growing heavy civil contractors in Illinois. We self-perform

concrete paving, earthwork, utilities, and structures on IDOT and municipal projects across central and

southern Illinois.


We invest in equipment, technology, and people. You'll work with late-model iron, GPS machine control,

a field tech stack that actually works, and an office that handles the paperwork so you can focus on

production.


The Role

You'll own a project from mobilization through final punch list. That means you're the one making the

calls on crew deployment, schedule sequencing, subcontractor coordination, and daily production

targets. You report to the Project Manager, but the field is yours.


Day-to-day, you'll

▸ Plan and manage daily field operations across concrete paving, earthwork, grading, and/or utility

installation

▸ Coordinate crews, subcontractors, material deliveries, and inspectors to keep the schedule moving

▸ Read and interpret plans, specs, and IDOT standards — and catch problems before they become

change orders

▸ Enforce quality control, safety compliance, and environmental requirements on-site

▸ Maintain accurate daily reports, quantities, and as-built documentation

▸ Manage project budgets at the field level — labor, equipment hours, material usage

▸ Communicate with owners, engineers, and IDOT resident engineers professionally and proactively

▸ Mentor and develop foremen and crew leads


What We're Looking For

Required:

▸ 5+ years of experience supervising heavy civil construction (highway, DOT, or municipal

infrastructure)

▸ Proven ability to independently manage a project site — schedule, budget, crews, and subs

▸ Strong working knowledge of IDOT specifications, prevailing wage requirements, and public sector

project controls

▸ Ability to read and interpret civil plans, profiles, cross-sections, and grading plans

▸ OSHA 30 certification (or willingness to obtain within 90 days)

▸ Valid driver's license with clean record, CDL preferred.


Preferred:

▸ Experience with concrete paving (slip-form or fixed-form) on IDOT projects

▸ Familiarity with HCSS HeavyJob, GPS machine control, and/or Trimble systems

▸ Experience managing $5M+ projects as lead superintendent

▸ CPR/First Aid certification


Compensation & Benefits

▸ Competitive salary commensurate with experience

▸ Company truck and fuel card

▸ Health, dental, and vision insurance

▸ Simple IRA with company match

▸ Paid time off and paid holidays

▸ Annual performance bonus opportunity

▸ Continuing education and career development support

▸ Late-model equipment fleet — you won't be nursing iron from the ~90s


Why KCI

We're owner-operated and growing fast, which means two things: decisions happen quickly, and good

people move up. We don't have layers of corporate overhead between you and the people making calls.

If you're tired of working for a company where nobody listens, this is different.


We're building something here. If you want to be part of it, we want to hear from you.


Help us build the roads to a better future.
