Construction Project Manager — Residential
Remodeling & Restoration
S&A Construction, Inc. | Wichita, Kansas
Full-time | Office and local jobsites
Base salary: $70,000–$85,000 per year, depending on relevant experience and qualifications.
Build quality projects. Keep people informed. Own the follow-through.
S&A Construction has served Wichita-area customers since 1994 with remodeling, restoration, and home-improvement
services. We are looking for an organized, accountable Project Manager who can turn an approved scope into a well-run
project and a confident customer.
This position manages sold projects from handoff through closeout, with one to two Project Coordinators on your team to
assist with duties and workload. It is not a commission sales role. You will work with the General Manager and
coordinate closely with our Superintendent to align schedules, field resources, workmanship, and customer
commitments.
Compensation & benefits
Base salary plus bonus opportunity, company vehicle, company phone, paid time off, and paid holidays.
Schedule & emergency response
This is an office- and jobsite-based position. Some after-hours duties are required depending on fire and water mitigation
needs, including customer communication and project coordination.
What you will do
- Review sold-job scopes, estimates, specifications, selections, and customer expectations before work starts; resolve
gaps early.
- Build and maintain practical project schedules, coordinating crew needs with the Superintendent and arranging
subcontractor work and material deliveries.
- Monitor job budgets, committed costs, and remaining work; identify cost overruns, scope gaps, and schedule risks
early.
- Document and obtain required approvals for change orders before additional work proceeds; coordinate
insurance-related scopes, supplements, and supporting documentation with estimating and program staff, carriers,
adjusters, and third-party administrators (TPAs), within assigned authority.
- Keep homeowners and insurance stakeholders informed about schedules, progress, scope questions, and next steps.
Set clear expectations, document commitments, and escalate coverage or authorization questions to the appropriate
party without promising insurance coverage.
- Maintain accurate records in DASH, including photos, job notes, schedules, approvals, and status. Coordinate timely
documentation and reporting required by insurance programs with internal program staff.
- Visit jobsites to verify progress and quality, reinforce safe work practices, and resolve issues with the Superintendent
and trade partners.
- Coordinate inspections, punch lists, customer walkthroughs, closeout documents, and information needed by the
office for accurate billing.
S&A Construction, Inc.
1600 S. Topeka | Wichita, KS 67211
Office: 316-262-6770
We Level the Competition.
How you will work with our team
The Project Manager owns project coordination, documentation, budget tracking, and customer follow-through. You will
lead one to two Project Coordinators, delegate tasks, set priorities, review follow-through, and remain accountable for
overall project delivery. The Superintendent leads field execution and crew coordination. You will communicate priorities
and resource needs with the Superintendent rather than issue conflicting instructions to the field. Escalate safety
concerns immediately and bring unresolved scope, cost, or staffing conflicts to the General Manager.
What we are looking for
- At least three years of relevant construction experience, including responsibility for coordinating projects, trades,
schedules, or customers. Equivalent military construction or project-leadership experience will be considered.
- Working knowledge of residential construction, trade sequencing, remodeling methods, and jobsite safety.
- Ability to read scopes, estimates, plans, and specifications and recognize missing information or potential conflicts.
- Strong organization and written communication; comfort managing multiple active projects and documenting
follow-through.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Outlook, and Excel; ability to learn and consistently use DASH and restoration
project-management platforms.
- Ability to travel between the Wichita office and local jobsites; a valid driver’s license is required for job-related driving.
- Ability to perform essential office and jobsite responsibilities, with or without reasonable accommodation.
Helpful experience
Residential remodeling or insurance-restoration project management; DASH or comparable job-management software;
Xactimate and XactAnalysis; experience coordinating with insurance carriers, adjusters, and TPAs; subcontractor
coordination; customer communication during occupied-home construction; and applicable safety or restoration
certifications. A construction-related degree is helpful but not required.
What success looks like
Jobs start with a clear scope and workable plan. Customers receive timely updates. Field teams have the information
and resources they need. Changes are documented and approved. Budgets and schedules are actively managed.
Projects close with completed punch lists and fewer preventable callbacks.
Our culture
We expect professionalism, respect, integrity, customer focus, and pride in workmanship. We value people who
communicate early, help their coworkers succeed, and take responsibility for doing the job right the first time.

Construction Manager Jobs in Kansas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a construction manager in Kansas?
Kansas does not issue a state-specific construction manager license, but most employers require a bachelor's degree in construction management, civil engineering, or architecture along with field experience. The Certified Construction Manager credential from the Construction Management Association of America is widely recognized by Kansas public agencies and large general contractors. Many candidates build their path through project engineer or superintendent roles before stepping into full construction manager responsibility.
Which companies hire construction managers in Kansas?
Kansas construction manager roles are posted by Black & Veatch, McCarthy Building, and P1 Construction and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Kansas's mix of highway and infrastructure projects, healthcare facility expansions, and industrial manufacturing sites keeps a broad range of general contractors and owner-operators hiring year-round.
Which Kansas cities have the most construction manager jobs?
Overland Park, Lenexa, and Kansas City have the most construction manager openings in Kansas. Wichita leads because of its large aerospace manufacturing facilities and ongoing commercial development, Kansas City draws volume from cross-border corporate campuses and infrastructure programs, and Topeka sees consistent openings tied to state government construction contracts and healthcare facility projects.
Are there remote construction manager jobs in Kansas?
Yes, but they're rare. About 13% of construction manager openings tied to Kansas are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, which reflects how hands-on the role typically is. The portions of the work most likely to be done off-site are pre-construction planning, bidding, scheduling, and owner reporting rather than day-to-day field oversight.
How can I get hired as a construction manager in Kansas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a project engineer or field engineer role with a mid-size Kansas general contractor, where you work directly under a construction manager on live projects. Firms like Dondlinger & Sons and regional contractors working on KDOT highway programs regularly bring on early-career candidates with a construction management or civil engineering degree. Earning your OSHA 30-Hour certification before you apply and building a portfolio from internship or co-op work gives you a clear edge in interviews.
Where can I find and apply to construction manager jobs in Kansas?
