Kimley-Horn • Austin, TX • 1d ago

Overview

Kimley-Horn's Austin South, Texas (TX) office is seeking a Construction Manager with 7+ years of experience to join their team! This is not a remote position.

Responsibilities

The Construction Administration Manager is responsible for leading and coordinating site and civil construction-phase services on large, complex projects to verify the constructed work substantially conforms to the approved design intent and contract documents prepared by Kimley-Horn. This role serves as the central point of integration between the design team, owner, contractors, and authorities having jurisdiction during construction.

The position requires strong organizational skills and professional judgment to manage high volumes of project information, including RFIs, submittals, meeting documentation, and field observations. The Construction Administration Manager oversees the timely and accurate review of contractor submittals and RFIs, facilitates and participates in construction meetings, and maintains clear, well-documented communication among all parties.

Through regular construction observations and reporting, the role verifies that installed site and civil components are consistent with the plans, specifications, and applicable standards, and identifies potential deviations or constructability issues early. The Construction Administration Manager helps resolve issues in a manner consistent with the contract documents while supporting project schedule, quality, and risk management objectives.

This position plays a key role in bridging design and execution, protecting the owner's and designer's interests through thorough documentation, proactive coordination, and disciplined construction-phase oversight.
