About the role
You've Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."
You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.
At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.
You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.
THE WORK:
- You’ll serve as responsible-in-charge for assigned municipal public works and community infrastructure projects, managing scope, schedule, budget, quality, and safety.
- You’ll lead project teams, including CM IIIs, inspection staff, and support personnel, providing direction, oversight, resource allocation, and quality review of project deliverables.
- You’ll serve as the primary agency client contact for city staff, project managers, and department directors, lead coordination meetings, and manage issue resolution and contractor and agency disputes.
- You’ll oversee construction administration, including RFIs, submittals, pay applications, change orders, schedule reviews, progress payments, and adjustments, and review and approve project-team deliverables.
- You’ll monitor contractor performance, schedule progress, staffing, equipment utilization, quality, and responsiveness, and recommend and implement corrective actions as required.
- You’ll oversee daily inspection reports and project documentation, review plans, specifications, and project changes for constructability, identify risks and solutions, and ensure field changes and modifications are captured on record drawings.
- You’ll enforce contractor compliance with contract documents, safety regulations, environmental requirements, and public agency standards, and immediately communicate critical issues, delays, safety concerns, or stakeholder impacts.
- You’ll coordinate construction phasing, traffic control, and utilities across multiple concurrent projects in active public environments, and support proposal preparation, client presentations, and agency relationships in the Orange County market.
WORK LOCATION:
Site Specific: Irvine and Los Angeles, CA
Every role here has some in-person time — for collaboration, for learning, and because capital projects happen in physical places. We'll be as flexible as we can around how you make that work.
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Architecture, or related field, plus either a valid California PE license and/or CCM.
- Minimum 15 years of construction management experience on municipal and/or public infrastructure projects, including direct responsibility (Resident Engineer or Lead Construction Manager) on projects delivered within Orange County, supported by current public agency references at the project manager or department director level.
- Demonstrated experience supervising and directing project teams, including inspection staff and junior construction managers, while managing multiple concurrent projects and multidisciplinary teams and demonstrated ability to manage construction in active public environments, including compliance with public agency standards, permitting and inspection requirements, stakeholder coordination, dispute resolution, and executive-level communication, with ability to travel locally (valid driver’s license required).
- Proven experience managing municipal roadway/street projects (including sewer, water, storm drain, and dry utilities) and public facilities (e.g., parks, libraries, fire stations, landfills) from construction through closeout.
BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE:
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU
- The biggest builds going. Hyperscale data centers, grid and generation, transit and rail, chip fabs, mines, water. If it's complex and it matters, it's on our list.
- You own the outcome. Not a workstream. Not a deliverable. Whether the program lands.
- AI that shows up on site. Program control that predicts instead of records. You'll use it, and you'll help shape it.
- Scale without the distance. More than 5,000 practitioners across the Americas, EMEA and APAC, on a team small enough that people know your name.
- Serious investment in you. Leadership development, technical upskilling and certification support.
- Work that outlasts you. People will use what you build for forty years without knowing your name. That's the point.
- Recognition that means something in this industry. Accenture Construct is ranked #6 globally in ENR's 2026 Top 50 Program Management Firms and #4 in Building Design + Construction's Top 80 Construction Management Firms for 2026.
