About The Position

Golden Triangle Construction (GTC), a 100% employee-owned commercial general contractor, is hiring an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead complex commercial construction projects throughout Colorado, particularly in public and institutional sectors such as municipal facilities, schools, fire stations, and emergency services training facilities. The role owns projects from preconstruction through closeout, with primary accountability for financial performance, contract administration, scheduling, risk management, client relationships, and project team development. The Senior Project Manager works closely with company leadership, Superintendents, subcontractors, design professionals, and public-sector clients to deliver successful projects while protecting the company’s relationships and profitability. The position is based at GTC’s Frederick, Colorado office, with regular travel to active jobsites throughout Colorado’s Front Range. Relocation to Colorado is required for candidates residing elsewhere; this is not a remote position. The schedule is Monday through Friday, with additional hours as project demands require. This is a full-time, exempt role with an annual base salary range of $120,000–$160,000, depending on experience and qualifications. Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates. GTC has operated for 49 years and describes itself as small enough to offer close-knit working relationships while established enough to provide challenging projects and career opportunities. Eligible employees may participate in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). The company also offers discretionary performance bonuses and a comprehensive benefits package.
