Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Construction Manager Jobs at Manhattan Construction Company Jobs
Align Your Credentials With U.S. Standards
Construction Manager roles typically require a degree in construction management, civil engineering, or architecture. If your credentials are from outside the U.S., get them evaluated by a NACES-approved agency before applying so your qualifications read clearly to a hiring manager.
Target Open Roles Matching Your Project Type
Manhattan Construction Company posts Construction Manager roles across a range of project types. Review each listing for the specific sector and scope before applying. Matching your resume to the project type you've managed builds a stronger case for sponsorship.
Understand How TN Status Works for This Role
Canadian and Mexican nationals can qualify for TN status as engineers or construction professionals without waiting on the H-1B lottery. Confirm your degree field maps to an eligible TN category under DOL guidelines before framing your application around this pathway.
Use Migrate Mate to Find Open Positions
Construction Manager openings at Manhattan Construction Company are actively listed and filterable by visa type. Browse current openings on Migrate Mate to find roles that align with your status, then apply directly through the company's process.
Get Your LCA Timing Right With Your Employer
For H-1B sponsorship, your employer must file a Labor Condition Application with the DOL before USCIS can process your petition. Confirm with the hiring team that they've started the LCA process well before your OPT or grace period expires to avoid status gaps.
Prepare a Project Portfolio Before Interviews
Construction managers at this level are expected to demonstrate hands-on oversight experience. Organize a concise portfolio of completed projects, including scope, budget range, and your specific role. This documentation also strengthens the specialty occupation argument in an H-1B petition.

Find Construction Manager at Manhattan Construction Company JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Manhattan Construction Company sponsor H-1B visas for Construction Managers?
Yes, Manhattan Construction Company has sponsored H-1B visas for Construction Manager roles. The H-1B requires the position to qualify as a specialty occupation, which Construction Manager roles generally satisfy when a bachelor's degree in a relevant field like construction management or civil engineering is required. Your employer handles the petition through USCIS, but you'll need to be selected in the annual lottery unless you qualify for a cap-exempt filing.
How do I apply for Construction Manager jobs at Manhattan Construction Company?
Applications go through Manhattan Construction Company's standard hiring process. Browse active Construction Manager listings on Migrate Mate to find current openings filtered by visa sponsorship. When you apply, lead with relevant project experience and be upfront about your visa status early in the process so the recruiting team can plan around sponsorship timelines from the start.
Which visa types are commonly used for Construction Manager roles at Manhattan Construction Company?
Manhattan Construction Company has sponsored H-1B, F-1 OPT, F-1 CPT, and TN visas for roles in this function. F-1 OPT and CPT are common entry points for recent graduates, while the H-1B is the standard long-term work visa. TN status is an option for Canadian and Mexican nationals whose degree field aligns with an eligible professional category under the USMCA agreement.
What qualifications and experience does Manhattan Construction Company expect for Construction Manager roles?
Expect a degree in construction management, civil engineering, or a closely related field to be a baseline requirement. Hands-on experience overseeing construction projects, managing subcontractors, and coordinating scheduling and budgeting is standard. Roles at this level often require familiarity with project management software and working knowledge of U.S. building codes and safety regulations, which is especially relevant if your background is from outside the U.S.
How do I time my application around H-1B sponsorship deadlines if I'm on OPT?
The H-1B cap filing window opens in March each year for an October 1 start date. If you're on OPT and your authorization expires before October 1, you'll need enough runway to cover the gap, or your employer may need to request a cap-gap extension. Connecting with Manhattan Construction Company's hiring team by late fall or early winter gives both sides enough time to prepare and file before the USCIS registration period opens.
